The 23 Best Restaurants in Montevideo, Uruguay | Eater
"A gorgeous, high-ceilinged bookstore with colorful tiled floors forms the entrance to this charming cafe, tailor-made for a quiet midmorning coffee and snack or a late afternoon craft beer (note that tables fill up rapidly at lunchtime). The simple menu includes spinach tarts, soups, and sandwiches on bread that is dense and moist (still a rarity in a city that prefers the airy baguette), plus a generous selection of desserts, like carrot cake and brownies. The owners are also behind another beautiful cafe space, Cultural Alfabeta, and the kitchen of the new five-star Hotel Montevideo. — NMW" - Marcela Baruch
Tony had lunch with journalist Carina Novarese, contributor for the publication El Observador. They had homemade sausage with roasted turnip and fermented vegetables, beet quiche.
A gorgeous bookstore that is well-worth the trip. While most of the book titles are in Spanish, one can still go to enjoy the decorations, the garden, and the cafe. It's also cool to see a stained glass ceiling. The staff are very friendly and welcoming

Lovely little cafe tucked away in a stunning building. We decided to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful patio. Service was quick, food was yummy, and the vibe was very relaxing. Highly recommend the pressed juices and taking a peek around the book store after you finish your meal.

Another historical architectural gem for book and coffee lovers to spend hours and hours and hours in. Massive amount of books to browse, great artwork and food. I discovered aioli here and haven’t stopped making it since! A little pricey, but worth it for the ambiance and great service. Dulce de leche flan to die for!
