We stumbled upon this cute all-outdoors cafe while strolling along 5th Ave. in Playa del Carmen and decided to stop in, mainly to grab a smoothie, but ended up staying for lunch. They had all-natural foods, which I was kind of wary at first, but they had regular stuff like sandwiches and fruit, as well as more "out there" stuff. The atmosphere was even more important to me than the food, because the trees gave shade in the hot sun, everyone was really friendly, and it's close to the shopping and to our hotel.
The choices on 5th Avenue stretch far and wide for food--we also ate at a restaurant on the other side of the street on the second floor with unbelievably good food and an upscale feel, and right across the street from this cafe is the famous bar with the TVs and swings. So with all the choices, I would still recommend this place for a nice, relaxing (and yummy) lunch.
