In an earlier post I mentioned a little cafe called Café Con Dios, located near the Cathedral. We had a good chuckle at the clever play on words, as the expression is usually Vaya con Dios, or Go with God.

As it happened, next day we found ourselves in the area again in late afternoon when we were ready to sit down and have a break. Seeing where we were, we decided we might as well have coffee with God!

What a brilliant piece of branding this place is. It’s quite a small space, and when you walk in, the first thing you see is the back wall — covered in photos of popes past and present, as well as Mother Teresa and other women of the church.

But when the menu came, we fell about laughing. Here’s what it looked like.

A quote from Papa Francisco. The pizzas were called after the Books of the Bible, and the salads after the Prophets.

The coffees etc. are named after the Twelve Apostles!

When the waiter took our order, instead of the usual thank you, with a smile he called out Hallelujah, and when we left, he gave us each a little bookmark featuring Mother Teresa.

We definitely enjoyed our Coffee with God, and came out with a smile on our faces.
