Cascanuez Café
Cascanuez Café Bar
A popular café and dessert shop near the square, with all pastries and breads made in-house and a simple all-day menu.
Located at 554 Amalia Puga Street, half a block from Plaza de Armas, it has long ranked first among Cajamarca's cafés on TripAdvisor. All pastries and breads are made in-house. Recommended items include Brazilian cake, walnut pie and Tentación ice cream, and there is also humita. Savory options such as burgers and pasta are served all day. Some reviewers find the desserts too sweet and the mains average, so it's best for afternoon tea. Prices are about 20–40 soles per person.
