El Cafecito
El Cafecito is the daytime café concept within Alimentaria Mexicana, an authentic Mexican restaurant and cultural gathering place on Granville Island, directly across from the main public market entrance. The broader establishment celebrates Mexican culinary traditions through housemade heirloom corn chips, chilaquiles, birria, and an extensive mezcal and tequila program. Regular spirits workshops and taco omakase events make this a destination rather than just a pit stop.
This place is in the traditional territory of the Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group, S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), səl̓ilwətaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsleil-Waututh), Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w (Squamish), Stz’uminus, šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmaɁɬ təməxʷ (Musqueam), and Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla.
