Caravela cafe, found just behind the Panjim church on 31st January road, run by Carlos and his family, is one the best places you can have breakfast and snacks if you're in Panjim. Great food, good ambience along with slow jazz music and a warm welcome makes your dining experience one to remember, so much so that, you'd want to go there again and again. The dedication and efforts put in to give you a wholesome experience. If you went there alone, they'd give you company and will make you feel like one their own. It's a must visit place in Panjim city which is best experienced on foot. One of my must visit place, if you're in Panjim.

A fun loving, informative and friendly host always indicates a good time. Our afternoon at Caravela Cafe was all about great food, homely vibes, enthusiastic owner Mr. Carlos Noronha and the most delicious range of hot and cold coffee under their brand name 'Latin Quarters'.

Let's talk about the Coffee first. A full fledged Coffe roasting and grinding machine worked continuously churning out various types of coffee according to ones taste. The entire top floor had the robust aroma of roasted coffee beans. Carlos Jr., the one behind the amazing coffee patiently explained and took us through the entire process and made sure he packed some fresh ground coffee for us to take home too. This coffee tour made us try and enjoy 3 coffees in a span on 2hrs. Mental note - Go back soon for more!

Moving on to the food, we tried one of the - All day breakfast. Soft scrambled eggs with frankfurters, baked beans, hash brown, braised tomato, sauteed mushroom toast, preservatives and Coffee. A one plate meal, have this and trust us you wouldn't want anything more. Perfectly filling and an amazing suggestion by Cyrus the one behind the delicious food at The Caravela.

Next up were these Spinach and Cheese Rissois. Make sure to have this hot, cos when it's hot it not something you can stop with just 1 serving.

Spaghetti Aglio e olii drizzled with generous amounts of garlic, chili flakes and olive oil was one bowl of comfort. We ate some and packed the rest to enjoy later. The pasta's are on the blander side as informed by Mr. Carlos, the owner. Kept this way on purpose so people can customize as required.

In the current situation everyone has become an expert in cooking at home with pizza being a popular choice. But what if we said that the Roasted Veg pizza was one of the best we've had. Nothing fancy, this thin crust perfect pizza was amazing. Not overloaded with cheese and maintaining the right crunch of the veggies. Truly delicious.

What's a meal that dosent end with some great desserts. Our search for the best 'Serradura' came to an end here. Perfectly sized and priced the serradura was light airy but luscious and creamy . Not too sweet but definitely the best. Must try.

The carrot cake was no less in competition. The spiced cake with the walnut crusted creme cheese was a dream combination.

Our meal came to an end but the conversation with the owners - the Noronha family seemed endless. We promised to visit again and continue where we left, of course over some more amazing food and coffee talks.

Went three times in 24 hours!! That's how much we liked it!! Really enjoyed the big breakfast and the coffee is wonderful - so much choice! I really want to go back and try some of the delicious cakes, they looked so amazing but I was so full after a big breakfast!

Carlos, the owner, is such a warm and friendly guy, made us feel so welcome. And I loved the background music that was playing.

Definitely visit again...

All I wanted when I woke up this rainy morning was a piping, hot ross omelet (a traditional Goan delicacy which is basically an omelet dunked in the most delicious gravy made with coconut milk and a mélange of whole roasted, fragrant spices) served with traditional Goan bread. Sadly giving up on our quest for this simple Goan meal which is traditionally served from food carts or tiny hole in the wall restaurants and seeing all of them shut, we ended up at the quaint and cosy Caravela which was going to be pit stop 2 for their amazing coffee.

Imagine our sheer delight when the owner suggested ross omelets, having no clue that we were on an almost futile ‘ross omelet’ hunt this morning! We ended up getting much more than what we expected!! A rather posh looking ‘ross omelet’ that tasted even more divine. The gravy was just unbelievably thick, creamy and flavourful! Dunk some freshly baked Goan bread in this gravy and you’re living the Goan culinary dream!! We tried their spinach and bacon rissoles which were amazing. We ended our meal with their dark, decadent and moist mud cake and their amazing single estate coffee from Coorg that is ground and roasted in-house. Just love their coffee!!

The owner Carlos and his wife Michelle are just lovely and what added to the delightful ambience was the engaging conversation. There was so much to chat about, don’t think we would’ve ever left! This is the true quintessence, soul and lifeblood of Goa. May Goa never lose it’s small world charm and the heartwarming congeniality of its people. Can’t wait to go back❤️.

HEARTY FOOD. BIG PORTIONS. INSANE COFFEE & DESSERTS. SWEETEST UNCLE IN TOW.

There's a lot to choose from in this cute place. Even under semi-lockdown for a change they had pretty much the whole of their menu items available. So I really had to focus and not drown in possibilities.

FOOD - I was in a brunchy mood so I went for the very fulfilling - "All day breakfast with cold meats" and my boyfriend had a Spaghetti Carbonara. The quantity here is generous and the flavours hit the right spots. The juices were fresh and not processed and sugary. 🎯
Nothing was too oily, not even the hash browns. I know this is basic, but most places mess up the toast. 😓 It's almost always too soft or hard, but here it was just right and super crunchy and it's these little things that count (for me anyway)
The Carbonara had copious amounts of meat in it and it's filling enough to be shared by two people. Just wish it had a toasty garlic bread slice but that's being very nitpicky.

Their baked goods and DESSERTS were too good to miss out on. I'm glad I packed them up to-go.
🙌Pro Tip: Try their custard tart. You won't find this everywhere. It's different from the usual lemon tarts

MOST IMPORTANTLY: They did NOT take their own sweet time to serve the food. Unlike a lot of popular places in Goa where you need to carry your own trail mix to not starve before they serve you. (You know who you are!) I respect any restaurant that pays attention to this aspect. 👌

AMBIANCE - Cozy, specially if you need to watch the rain go by. There's mellow jazz in the background that doesn't overpower the conversations that inevitably follow over the *kadak* coffee from here.

SERVICE - Prompt and listens up. They were following all possible precautions and seating people away from each other. Made me feel glad I picked this as the first place to dine-in since the lockdown.
The owner gentleman was really sweet and hospitable. He really made us feel at home. There was no rushing. We watched the rain pour out for a while and just made the most of it before leaving when he kindly reminded us to not forget our umbrellas.
Well worth a revisit.

DON'T MISS - Their coffee. Be as specific as you like your coffee to be. They'll deliver.

The food was extremely good, the English Breakfast (Pork) was to die for. The cappuccino was also very nice, the afagato was amazing. Also try the cookie & cream chocolate fudge. It’s good! Overall I loved Caravela, definitely looking forward to being there again soon!
Absolutely delicious food. Can’t get enough.

Undoubtedly one of Panjim's best cafes, serving satisfying breakfasts and snacks, Cafe Caravela now has new lunch additions on their menu, making it the ideal hangout place at any time of the day.

I've always been a fan of their rissois, and they've now included bacon and cheese rissois which is so so good! Pair it with a chorizo sausage roll and you'll be sorted!

Do try out their Ros Omelette - its obviously of far better quality than what you get at roadside stalls and shacks, and is the ultimate comfort food. The curry/ros is rich and coconut-y!

The seafood pasta was one of the most delicious pasta dishes I've had in recent times - we just couldn't stop eating it. While I love Pesto Pasta, the tomato sauce was exceptionally made and the prawns were cooked just right, soaking up all the flavour.

The ham and cheese croissant really takes the cake... it is so filling, you'll need to share! Speaking of cake, they have a wonderful selection of cakes and pastries, but I was too full to try any. Lastly, their brand of coffee, Latin Quarter, deserves special mention since it is ground on-site and has a full-bodied, rich flavour that all of us coffee lovers crave for but don't get easily in Goa.

For the best coffees and shakes this is the only place i swear by. Also their sandwiches and burgers are equally worth. Their packaging ensured hygiene and cleanliness, the payment was contactless and the food delivered was really good. What i loved the most was the fact that coffee and shake didn’t spill even a drop, it was so carefully and neatly packed. Overall a wonderful experience!

On my recent( and first) trip to Goa, while searching for a cafe in Panjim, ratings on zomato got me to this cozy little place. And it turned out to be a nice experience, totally worth visiting. Food was great, ambience warm and inviting. And the gentleman who happened to be the owner, he personally came to take the order, made sure we are comfortable, asked how we liked the food and he also got a complementary cupcake for my two year old niece. Me and my brother , after coming out of the cafe were discussing how the little gestures make you feel at home, and that's what the gentleman( i wish I had asked his name) made us feel like. Food is not just about the taste, it's the whole experience- and this was one of the memorable experiences we had in Goa.

We came across this cafe by chance today and it was such a pleasant experience. It's a cute little place run by a very sweet gentelman Mr. Carlos. We ordered a Spaghetti Alfredo and an orange juice and the taste was really good.
More than the cozy ambience and the good food, what we liked was that Mr. Carlos took out the time to come and have a little chat with us. He also insisted that we try their in house roasted coffee which turned out to be really good. Also he didn't even charge us for it since he just wanted us to try it. Infact we liked the coffee so much that we picked up a pack to take home.
They also had really good looking desserts but we didn't try them as we were pretty full. Would have loved to try the carrot cake though.
Definitely a must visit place.

OMG this place was truly heaven to our taste buds. My family and me drive from mumbai and reached goa early morning and straight headed to this cafe for some heavy breakfast. We ordered a lot of food hoping it would be good but it was simply amazing. Every dish has a unique taste and the best part were the owners, so helpful and politely + friendly to talk to. I am totally gonna be a shout out advertiser for this place. Ok now the most important part what all we ate

1. Keema pav : Keema with little gravy and authentic podi was great Indian cuisine on our table

2. The Caravela Breakfast : A complete meal with an option for chicken or pork. The plate is filled with Scrabbled eggs/ Fried eggs + Bacon + Fried Aloo tikki + Sausages and beans, all this served with tossed bread.
3. Potato Chop (Chicken / Beef) : Loved this too goes great with a watermelon juice
4. Beef Cutlet : Comes wrapped in the pav with some strong mustard flavour. So if you not a big fan of mustard please do mention it while ordering.

Overall a great experience. You can surely customize your order according to your preference which is rare to find now days.

Every single thing I had was amazing. The fejoada was wholesome, with a lovely tang from the chorizo sausage. The poi was fluffy and crusty. The pasteis de nata was creamy with a lovely flaky crust. The beef croquettes were the star of the show. Every bite was a flavour-bomb. Crisp on the outside and the beef filling was juicy and had just the right amount of spice. I'm going back again whenever I return to Panaji.

Well I had heard a lot about this cafe and wanted to visit it since a long time. I finally visited it and let me tell you that you have a really great options for the breakfast as they have various breakfast meals to choose from besides that I loved the ambience. It got all this lovely vibes. 
.
Well to begin with we tried
1) Latte quarter premium
2)Chicken Croquettes
3)Club Sandwich
4) Raspberry Cheesecake 
.
You get some amazing latte here, if you go there please make sure to try out their latte without missing it out on it.
.
The chicken croquettes is the best croquettes I have tried. Crunchy from the outside and soft from inside. Definitely loved it.They also have more options for croquettes like beef, chicken and vegetarian. You can also try that out.
.
The club chicken sandwich was super filling and is served with the French fries. If you looking for some heavy breakfast go for the club sandwich. Loved the sandwich as well.
.
The raspberry cheesecake is a new addition to the menu so we had to try it out. It's an eggless  pastry, will say that it was a cherry on top to our breakfast at @caravella. The cheesecake was really good and you guys should try it out if you love cheesecakes.
.
My overall experience was amazing, loved the vibes and ambience the place has. And the owners were really sweet to their customers and make you feel really comfortable
You cannot miss this lovely cafe in the heart of the city. Totally worth a visit.

This is one of my go to places for a late and leisurely breakfasts on weekends or a quick lunch on weekdays between meetings. It's has a varied menu serving breakfast all day, their own coffee roastery called Latin Quarter, plus some other Indian artisanal coffee brands. So if you love your java then this is definitely the place to go. Another favourite of mine are the Portuguese Rissois in Prawns or cheese, and to finish it off the Portuguese Pastis de Nata or the Serradura is perfect. Expect to share your table or maybe even requested to vacate it in case they are crowded and have people waiting, especially on weekends as they are a cute family run establishment with very limited seating. Or like me go after 2 pm for a late lunch when the main rush is over. They also have a Goan menu for those of you who want their Local food. And of course a lot more dessert options too, but remember no alcohol served here.

On our third day, we headed off to North Goa, and stopped in Panjim for some coffee. I quite like this city. It’s beautiful, lively and has got some amazing eateries. There are old cobblestone streets lined with colorful houses and cafes that serve delicious food. We went to this little cafe called Caravela Cafe and Bistro. It’s a small place with simple decor, couple of paintings and some funny quotes on the walls. There’s also a tempting dessert counter at the entrance.

Good menu range, all day breakfast items. Loved the banana and Nutella 3-layered pancake, though expensive. However the Goan breakfast could have been better, they even forgot to serve a juice that comes with the breakfast platter. The place and seating is cramped.

This one is a beautiful cafe located in Panjim known for serving one of the best coffee in India. Apart from this they also serve all day breakfast and varieties of snacks and savouries from pizza, pasta, croissant, pancakes, sandwiches and much more. Their smoked chicken pizza is one of the best I've tried in Goa. Highly Recommended. I'll also recommend their chocolate croissant and nutella banana pancakes. Their pesto chicken sandwich is huge and their chicken pasta is equally good . In coffee thier latin quarter premium hot latte and their Vietnamese cold coffee is just try!! Here's what we tried 🍽️ • Smoked Chicken Pizza 320/- • Pesto Chicken Sandwich 250/- • Chocolate Croissant 100/- • Nutella Banana Pancakes 200/- • Chicken Penne Pasta 300/- • Premium hot latte 250/- • Vietnamese Cold Coffee 200/- The ambience is bright, beautiful and welcoming and the aroma of fresh coffee is just all around. A highly recommended cafe in Panjim. Do visit.

Caravela is popular for breakfast with good reason. The menu is extensive and service fast. The place is small so be prepared to wait. You get what you ordered without any bells and whistles like jam or honey or extra toast. I ordered the bacon omelette and black coffee, both of which were good. Not too expensive. Parking is a pain.

Read about charm of this place in the newspapers. Housed in the old houses in Sao Tome, it is a small quaint place offering a personal and local menu. Quality of food is good though service maybe a bit slow. But would recommend it definitely. Only drinks are allowed for take always. So you have to order something to eat for a table, understandable as the place has limited seating options and makes no sense to block tables for just drinks.

Ahhhaa! This cafe stole my heart due to its cold coffeeee😍 The ambience is so peaceful and they have amazing motivating quotes for food all over their walls with cute show pieces. It is sooo good to see that how well they have utilised the smallest place in their cafe and turned it to most efficient ones be it for table placing or design elements. Pizza and pasta both are highly recommended. One thing to mention is that they do not allow to work with laptops here like doing work from cafe which is good also to avoid cafe getting crowded. They even have washroom facilities.

Small place with amazing quality and taste. Long queues on weekends to get into this small place. Wish staff being more courteous. BTW, they don't mind losing business.... If the customer leaves due to lack of space to sit.

Beautiful and cozy little place on the corner! It's an all-day breakfast cafe specially known for its Coffee for which they have received a lot of awards as well. It has a beautiful decor, tiny details and perfect goan vibe to it. This coffee shop has an extensive menu with sandwiches, burgers, pizzas, Goan snacks, bakery items, English breakfast and much more to it. Good food, great service and ambience. The servers are quite friendly and the place is well decorated. The only con is this place is located in a crowded city area so finding parking on a busy day might be an issue. We had the following- Ros omlette - 100/10 must try!! Cappuccino -10/10

I recently enjoyed a delightful breakfast at this charming cafe, and it was a truly satisfying experience. The ambience and service could have been more better but the food was absolutely delicious. Starting with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, the rich aroma and robust flavor woke up my senses. It was the ideal companion to the hearty breakfast I was about to savor. The baked beans with toast were a comforting classic. The beans were well-seasoned, and the toast had that perfect crunch. It's a simple yet timeless combination that never disappoints. The croissant was a highlight of the meal. Light, flaky, and buttery, it practically melted in my mouth. A perfect pastry that paired wonderfully with the coffee. To finish off, I indulged in serradura, a sweet Portuguese dessert that was the perfect ending to my breakfast. Its creamy texture and subtle sweetness left me wanting more. Overall, this cafe provided a delightful breakfast experience. From the well-brewed coffee to the comforting baked beans, the decadent croissant, and the sweet serradura, it was a breakfast worth savoring. Iam definately visiting this cafe whenever i visit Goa next time. P.s. I forgot to click picture of croissant and coffees we had.

This is a beautiful little cafe that might just make your day! The staff are polite and helpful, they play an essential role in the pleasant experience you'll have dining here. The food is great! I had some pancakes and coffee and they were great. They have Bebinca that tastes like heaven! Do not miss out on that. The place is cosy and doesn't have many tables, so if you're planning to go as a group, call ahead and make a reservation. They are accommodative with requests and make you feel at home. Finding parking around the area is definitely a challenge, try public transport. That said, I left with a smile and if I go back to Goa, this is one place that'll be on my itinerary for sure.

This place is in opposite lane of a petrol pump and difficult to find. It's a place where all the Cruise Casino's are located. Food is good though I didn't like the dish I ordered. Coffee was good. Juice was pathetic.

The smoked chicken pizza at Caravela Cafe And Bistro is one of the best I've ever had. The crust is perfectly crispy, the sauce is flavorful, and the chicken is cooked to perfection. The smoked flavor of the chicken is really well-balanced with the other flavors on the pizza. I also love the addition of the fresh vegetables, which add a bit of freshness and crunch.

Tried the smoked chicken sandwich and the a breakfast combo (refer pic). Both were good. They take a long time to serve. The pricing part also is a little bit on the higher side. Ambience is okay though the place is a bit cramped up.
