Secret Garden Café is a cute spot tucked away in Tlaquepaque with charming decor and a cozy atmosphere. I really like that they support local companies — you won’t find the big-name beverage brands here, which adds to the local feel. We ordered a mix of dishes: corn chowder, huevos rancheros, the famous quiche, and a breakfast burrito. The food was good — classic breakfast fare that starts the day off right. Nothing spectacular, but that’s perfectly fine; it’s just solid, well-made breakfast. I also appreciated the potato variety served as the side, which was a nice touch and added some personality to the meal. Overall, a pleasant stop for breakfast or brunch — cozy, thoughtful, and relaxed, even if not particularly memorable. In the Tlaquepaque village is where this quaint little best kept secret for coffee and good food is located. You get a warm and comfy feeling when you enter, and once inside the aromas of fall eats and beverages come to life. I only got a coffee, but I spoke with a couple of other folks that were eating and they really enjoyed the food. I had a good experience at this cute Cafe. We sat outside and ate near the hummingbird feeder. A hummingbird bird came by briefly and sat in the tree while we ate. We went on a weekday in the morning. We were able to get parking. There was a line before the place opened. I enjoyed the tofu scramble with the vegan patty. The coffee was good. The service was excellent.

⭐️ 4/5 The food was really good — fresh, high-quality, and flavorful. We ordered the pancakes, which came with fresh fruits and bacon. I requested tofu instead of bacon, but was charged an additional $7, which felt unfair since it was a simple protein swap. Ideally, they should’ve refunded the bacon portion. The scramble was one of the best I’ve had — absolutely delicious. The croissant, however, was average and something I’d skip next time. The coffee was strong, rich, and perfectly brewed. Service was quite slow and not particularly friendly, but I’d still come back for the food — it was that good.

This is a very peaceful and beautiful place to eat. The name does not disappoint, you feel like you’re entering into a beautiful secret garden. The giant trees provide lots of shade and keep the area cool. The food is pretty good however very pricey, which is common for Sedona.
