3. Mi Tierra Cafe Y Panaderia

We had breakfast here off of a recommendation from a friend who knows San Antonio. He told us to arrive there between 9 and 10 and I would agree with that. we got there about 9:30am on a Saturday and it was starting to get very busy. Located near El Mercardo (The Market) it is a great way to start off your day. If you just want a few pasteries from their HUGE counter, or if you want a full service sit down breakfast they have plenty to choose from. This place is huge! My husband ordered what looks like a Mexican Breakfast with an American twist (bacon and eggs, etc.). The eggs were to die for! I ordered two breakfast tacos, one potato and egg and one was "Mexican Barbecue" and both were fantastic! They bring you chips and salsa along with fresh homemade tortillas (corn and flour) and butter. Yummy!! The coffee was good as well, but to be open 24 hours I guess you have to have good coffee. After breakfast there go check out the Market and you'll feel like you've crossed the border without a passport! Mi Tierra is a must for an visit to San Antonio!!

Avoid this tourist attraction.

Love it, We go there all the time, They serve real mexican food, and delicious, They have their own bakery.

Possibly the best Tex Mex food I have ever eaten. It was so good that I went back three times in my 4 day stay in San Antonio. Their breakfast cannot be beat!! Be sure to check out the bakery/panaderia. They have some very delicious Mexican pastries. Be sure to try the pumpkin empanadas, or the leche quemada (rich caramel fudge).

Excellent food and service. Great atmosphere. Have been eating here since 1967 when I am in San Antonio.
