I liked the breakfast, reasonable fast considering the size of the restaurant. But so many people want to sell something outside or asked for money.
I want to say thanks to the whole family of la parroquia. (I write in English so my wife from Serbia can read) Everything was del delicious and the famous coffee I couldn't miss. I rate my veracruz with 5 stars . I will come back Sincerely Javier Malpica & Dana Ninkovic
Great iconic/historic restaurant. The food was excellent and the service on point and quite friendly. Totally recommend it
We had a great experience here food it’s ok the service and atmosphere is great I will come back don’t forget to get the famous coffe
Great experience, as soon as we came in they gave us the option to pick where to sit and found us a place for us to plug our computers in. We had lechero coffees a bomba concha and a picadita veracruzana. All 10/10 waiter was very kind.
The long queue is worth it. Order a lechero and call the waiter by tapping on your cup with the spoon. Enjoy the traditional Veracruz dishes, and the sweet bread.
Returning after 33 years! The coffee still tastes the same. The service was great. This place is an institution, and I’m so glad they’re still here after all this time. Thank you for a great experience over so many years.
Very nice place for breakfast and dinner. Very emblematic for the city! Looks pretty old and that’s because it is!!! However, I think it’s part of its charming. Things you have to try: 1. Lechero- Coffee from Veracruz with milk, don’t miss the preparation!! 2. Bomba- Do you like sweet and salty combination? You can’t miss this!! 3. Caldo La Parroquia- Really TASTY!! Eggs, cheese, turkey and vegetables are just some of its ingredients! Try to go in the morning or at night since they best dishes are for this eating times... leave your comments about your experience!!
