Inside the Claustro de la Merced, next to Librería Remedios la Bella. Asymmetric WiFi — 5 down / 20 up when tested, possibly a mobile connection. Fine for email and light browsing, unreliable for video calls or downloads. Best tables: entrance right side, closest to the two outlets. The coffee and chai are genuinely excellent. Exotic fruit sorbets worth trying.

Three tables at the entrance right side, closest to the two outlets
Food & drinks
Coffee, chai, pastries, cookies, brownies, fruit sorbets — mid-range for the area

Los sorbetes de fruta tropical valen la pena.
