Gone are the days when coffee was merely a digestive (or indigestive) formality that you drank with conviction anywhere. Coffee is increasingly arousing passions to the point of becoming a kind of ritual where not just any variety, roast or barista will do. The pleasure of drinking a good coffee, distinguishing its aromas and lingering over the delights of a cup is possible in these cafés in Seville.
Fourteen addresses that make up the definitive coffee map and that you should have on your radar: spaces to socialize, work, or let the hours pass by over breakfast or afternoon tea.
Late
Late is celebrating its first anniversary; one of Seville’s most talked-about cafés in the vicinity of the Alameda, offering coffee to go through its small window, breakfasts to enjoy a leisurely morning, and the possibility of settling into its coworking space.
The premises, by the way, are a delight, designed by the architects at Espacio Mondo. Open kitchen, coffee from Hola Coffee, and pastries in this café that exudes good vibes.
Plácido y Grata
Recently awarded a Solete Repsol, the Plácido y Grata café is one of the most beautiful in the city, located in a late 19th-century mansion that also houses a charming hotel.
Coffee, courtesy of NOMAD, is one of the main reasons to drop by this temple, whose breakfasts are also not to be missed.
You can buy bread from Pablo Conesa or sample his exquisite selection of pastries. A haven of peace just a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of the city center.
Parcería Café
In this cozy corner of Seville, they not only worship coffee (their flagship product) but also breakfast, brunch, and afternoon snacks, according to their tempting menu.
A café so well established in the city that it’s no surprise that some people travel to this corner of the Old Town just to enjoy a good cup of coffee.
Cafetería Dakar
Customers often tell Dani, the owner of Dakar, that this is the only specialty coffee shop in Seville where the customers are exclusively local. No tourists, no overpriced toast, and no decor that reminds you of anything but belonging.
You have to go to the Carretera Amarilla Business Park to find this gem. A rare find where coffee takes center stage and breakfasts are traditional.
Your order implicitly includes the coffee literature that Dani lavishes on you: maturation and roasting processes, notes and origin, of course, which change monthly.
Gallery
The Macarena neighborhood finally has its first specialty corner. Artist and photographer Chío Fernández returned to Seville after a long period living in London to launch Galería, this exciting coffee project.
For now, this is the café that your grandmother would fall in love with (or will fall in love with), as they rightly claim on their social media.
Over time, a neighborhood café (yes) but with the capacity to house a gallery and continue to energize and create synergies in the vicinity of Cruz Roja.
You’ll find coffee from Ineffable, pastries from Pan y Più, and Solo Chai.
Moin Café
Moin Café began its coffee adventure at the start of the summer, in a tiny shop next to Santa María la Blanca. Beyond the theme that concerns us, it is a somewhat more versatile business, where you can also try a vermouth or attend its wine and cheese nights or tastings.
Craftsmanship, gourmet products, a small, charming terrace, and specialty coffee. On social media, they recognize it as “your new favorite place for a well-made espresso, a leisurely filtered coffee, and a good bite to eat.”
Nebbi
The fact that the idiosyncrasy of the Triana neighborhood remains (almost) intact is excellent news. But the sudden emergence of authentic businesses capable of respecting it and adding value is much more than could be expected.
Selva Coffee dominates specialty coffee on Calle Castilla, expanding its offerings to refreshing coconut lemonades, matcha, and delicious sweets and cakes whose flavor is uncompromising. Readers will likely fall in love with this charming corner where the product is guaranteed without sacrificing friendly service, the kind that makes a neighborhood.
Muy Coffee
Muy Coffee is another of the coffee virtues that the Alameda de Hércules areacan boast about. You can accompany your coffee, hot or cold, with their sweet offerings: cinnamon rolls, cookies, or protein bombs.
Beyond their cozy premises, you will also find them at other popular venues in the city, such as In the Park and Electrolunch, among others.
The one that opened in the Santa Cruz neighborhood in the midst of the pandemic to overwhelming success has another location next to the Plaza de San Francisco.
Top-quality coffees, from Ineffable to other international roasters, make that first sip a morning delight.
Bambú
Drinking good coffee and eating a proper breakfast are two inseparable concepts if you visit Bambú. Spectacular muffins (and other breads, including gluten-free) that you can enjoy with a multitude of options. One of their surefire specials: avocado, sliced tomato, and aged cheese.
In short, traveling to Ronda Urbana Norte has its rewards: some of the most complete roasts in the city with unbeatable value for money.
They have a well-deserved Repsol Sun; what are you waiting for? Try it!
Virgen Coffee
Virgen Coffee is the stronghold of those cafés in Seville that began to take the noble art of coffee making very seriously, paying attention to every detail. From the roasters they work with to the coffee-making process itself. As a result, they have more than earned their place as leaders in the city center.
If you’re passing by Las Setas, you must stop and taste what’s on offer here. Pedro Sierra opened Virgin eight years ago, almost a decade that has allowed high-quality coffee to make its way into the city.
East Crema Coffee
An undeniable Japanese aesthetic permeates this space next to Campana, where specialty coffee, a succinct selection of sweets, and a peaceful atmosphere are served.
Wood presides over East Coffee Crema, one of the specialty coffee shops that has joined the catalog that adorns the city center.
Syra Coffee
Syra now has four locations in Seville, confirming the demand for specialty coffee, which is sought after not only by foreigners but also by the city’s residents. The Catalan company has taken root in Seville, and you can find its cafés in different locations throughout the city: on Calle Rioja, Álvarez Quintero, Tetuán, and Las Setas.
Syra Coffee arrived in the Andalusian capital by opening its firstcafé at number 3 Calle Jovellanos together with Room007. A model of collaboration that they have already replicated in other Spanish cities such as Madrid, San Sebastián, and Bilbao, among others. This synergy provides customers with the best possible experience, offering the best specialty coffee in the lobbies of Room007 hotels.
Specialty coffee in Seville East: Vicenta
Vicentina opened in the picturesque neighborhood of San Vicente, but would eventually move next to Caótica.
It has finally established itself in Seville East as a benchmark for those spaces capable of combining coffee, books, comics, and games in Seville. Thus , alongside specialty coffee, there are workshops, presentations, and many, many books.
