It's a cafe/art gallery/music venue/bar, in the heart of Medellin Centro. It definitely has a soul of its own, out of the tourist track. Check the agenda as it constantly hosts events.

One of our old-time favorites. Open since 1957 is one of the oldest most traditional café/bars in El Centro. They usually have live performances, Tango dance lessons. You will find yourself immersed among (usually elderly) locals. Bad service is part of their DNA ;)

A family owned, traditional restaurant specialized in homemade food. Make sure you check their "cazuela de fríjoles" only served on fridays. Get there before 12:30-1PM...usually they ran out of cazuelas. Doña Miriam will make you feel at (a Colombian) home.
