One of the very few cafés in San Antonio with real freshly ground coffee and a machine for making cappuccinos etc. Known for their great tasting empanadas but they should advertise more that they have coffee. Seats available outside and even a patio heater if absolutely needed.

El lugar es un lugar acogedor, al llegar te reciben siempre con una buena onda, y atentos, las cosas empanadas son ricas y y sabrosas, los precios son accesibles y para cualquier bolsillo, cuentan tanto con empanadas fritas como con empanadas al horno cualquiera de las deos opciones son buenas y sabrosas. Sería genial si se preocuparan por pedir el carnet de vacunación al llegar pero más haya de eso un buen lugar

Siempre voy porque soy amante del buen café y allí lo encuentro recién molido, con aroma y savor; además de las empanadas, el pastel de zanahoria y las humitas me gustan mucho. La atención es personalizada, por su propio dueño. El lugar es pequeño, tranquilo y acogedor. Me gustaría que mejoren el baño y le cambien más lejos por cuestiones de higiene y privacidad. Recomiendo el lugar. Califico de 1 a 10: '8.5'
