Although its opening hours may seem a bit strange for a café (since it opens fairly late), La Paca offers an interesting mix of tea, coffee, cocktails and pastries long into the late hours. Regardless of whether you’re craving a mojito in the afternoon or a cake at midnight, the staff here is likely to welcome you with a smile and be helpful and attentive. As such, they make the atmosphere seem really friendly and welcoming and the time spent here really enjoyable. The homey-hipster décor certainly only adds to this, and the customers who come in here always seem to be just as nice and mellow as everything else about this café (no loud obnoxious banter or improvised English classes, thank goodness).

A little left of centre but well set out and managed. …

This place has a wonderful bohemian vibe to it, full of old furniture and lightbulbs dangling in mason jars. The waiters are all very friendly and the drinks are well made and reasonably priced. I go here frequently go read or work. Order a carajillo—coffee with brandy, cinnamon and an orange peel. It's a bit sweet but absolutely delicious. …
