Cafe Niagara is renowned for its delectable tostadas, a highlight of the breakfast menu. Don’t miss the classic tostadas with tomato and jamón, an authentic Alicante experience that will tantalize your taste buds.

Great place for breakfast! The toastadas are cheap (2.2 euros) and the coffee is strong and tasty. They have spots both inside and outside. Very kind staff and fast service.

If you want to savor an authentic local breakfast in Alicante, look no further than Cafe Niagra. Their tostadas with tomato and jamon are a must-try, and be sure to sample the variety of ham they offer. Don't forget to drizzle some olive oil over your tostada before taking a bite - it adds a whole new level of flavor! We were so impressed with the taste that we couldn't help but order three tostadas. And the coffee? It's hands down the best we've had in Alicante - we ended up ordering three cups as well. Plus, the prices are extremely reasonable. Don't miss out on this gem of a cafe!

Lovely cafe! The toast with avocado was delicious, with very fluffy bread that was toasted just the perfect amount. Coffee was also very good, and there was a slight mix-up with my husband's coffee, but it was fixed immediately and they even apologized when bringing us a new one. The staff are very friendly. They also have a lot of options on their menu for toasts and other breakfast options, including gluten free bread for toasts. Very affordable and great value for the price. Definitely recommend!!

We stayed near this cafe on our break to Alicante and came back near enough every day. The owners and their daughter were always so friendly and took the time to speak to us and recommend places to visit in Alicante. Great food and drinks. Really good value for money. We will miss visiting them but will definitely return next year!

Best Tostas in Alicante! I recommend you get the Tosta de la casa, it was delicious. Also the staff is super outgoing and friendly (and patient with my very bad Spanish)
