bandjwayne Posted December 28, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2018 We will be in San Juan in Feb. from ~7:30 am - 1:30 pm. Does anyone have a suggestion of a restaurant or cafe where I can get a specialty coffe drink in the Old San Juan area? I was there ~8 years and remember having a delicious coffee made at a restaurant with a really old coffee making machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LookingForward2 Posted December 30, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2018 There are two we visited: Chocobar coffee was very good (yummy chocolates as well). The other one which we found delightful was Cafe Cuatro Sombras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone says PR coffee, that’s the first place I think of, right after saying “yummmm”. Be aware that if you want to take home a bag of their coffee, it’s well over $20. There are stores nearby which sell some of PR’s best coffees at a better price. Not grocery store prices, but not as $$$$ as the restaurant. I always bring several bags of PR coffee home with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfaeric Posted January 10, 2019 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2019 What you had was not a specialty coffee, it was cafe con leche (coffee + hot milk), which is how coffee is very much drunk in Puerto Rico. Either La Bombenera or Mallorca have the super old machines you remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
