Week # 135/ Back to El Artesano Coffee Shop

I love coffee shops because they serve one of my favorite drinks, coffee. I like tea, but not as much as coffee, which is why whenever I get the chance, I go to a coffee shop to order one of my favorite coffees. Besides, these places almost always sell delicious accompaniments such as cakes, muffins, cookies, and doughnuts, and some even offer breakfast, lunch, and other beverages.

Another thing I love about coffee shops is that nowadays, some are very original, with themes that are out of the ordinary. I have been fortunate to have visited a few very original and truly beautiful coffee shops, but what has captivated me the most has been the quality of their coffees, their presentation, flavor, and aroma, which is a priority for all coffee lovers, and I am one of them.

I am one of those people who never forgets a place where I have been served an exquisite coffee, and I return to visit them as soon as I have the opportunity. Enjoying a good coffee again in a place that has already become one of my favorites is my specialty, and that is why today I am going to share with you one of my favorite cafés: EL Artesano, a café with a lot of personality that I had visited on another occasion and had not been back to in quite some time, until today.

On this visit, I went with my daughter, taking advantage of the fact that we were passing in front of the café, and it started to rain, which was the perfect moment to enjoy a delicious coffee. In my case, my daughter wanted dessert, so when we went in, we looked at the menu, which a nice girl offered us as soon as we arrived. Since it was cold, I ordered a delicious cappuccino, and my daughter decided on a delicious dessert, consisting of a golfeado accompanied by tasty ice cream, a rather curious but very delicious combination.

While we waited for our order, I took the photos that I am sharing with you, as the place has a rustic, bohemian, minimalist, and slightly retro decor. The service there is also top-notch. One of the things I liked from the moment I saw it on my first visit was where all the coffee-making equipment is located: the vending machine, cups, and ingredients they use. Along with the coffee beans, this is where the magic happens and, of course, where the barista works.

The tables are arranged in two areas, some near the entrance window, with individual seats, seats for couples, and tables for groups. So, if you feel like it, and depending on whether you are alone or with one or more companions, you also have several areas at the back to choose from. In my case, as I was with my daughter, we sat at a table for two. It was an experience I was able to share with her, which was the best part.
