About Café Don Lucho
Café Don Lucho is a relaxed and welcoming specialty coffee shop in the heart of Apaneca, one of El Salvador's highest coffee-growing towns at over 1,400 meters. The second-floor terrace offers sweeping views of the surrounding coffee plantations and cool, misty mountain air. Don Lucho's affogato ($2.50) has become something of a local legend — a scoop of vanilla ice cream drowned in fresh espresso. Whether you stop in for a quick cortado or settle in for a lazy morning with pastries and WiFi, this is Apaneca's most beloved café.
