Hands on best Café I have ever been too. The backyard is amazing, potions are much bigger than you are used to and prices are more than reasonable.

What an incredible discovery, especially given that it was pretty much pure luck that we found this place at all. It is tucked away in a beautiful peaceful garden inside the "El Convento" hotel. Had it not been for the blackboard outside the hotel front door, we would have totally missed it. We visited with a toddler, and it has to be said that it's IDEAL for families with young kids, as there is loads of space for them to run about safely (ie, no traffic). So many good food spots in Tarifa have terraces on the footpath, right alongside busy roads, and I'm personally not convinced the stress of keeping a small person safe is offset by the dining experience. Here at Sivana, both the boxes get ticked. Also, the food is DELICIOUS! And my word are the prices ultra competitive. There is nothing I didn't like about this place. Definitely will be in again on our next trip to Tarifa!

One of my favorite places for brunch and coffee. During my stay in Tarifa I came here many times because I enjoyed it so much. Brunch and drinks are amazing, you can also get Kurkuma Latte, Matcha Latte... Also the interior is very beautiful and the atmosphere is relaxing. And the garden, so beautiful and offers a lot of shade. The owner is super friendly!

This is a real hidden gem. In a cute little courtyard behind the citywall there is this nice little garden, where great and extraordinary breakfast by very friendly people is served.
