Café Revolución has held down the corner of Circular 4 since 2014, and in that time it has become something close to a Laureles institution — probably the single most-recommended café in the neighbourhood among expats and remote workers, and the one people name first when someone asks where to go.
Breakfast is the reason to come. The kitchen turns out New York-style bagels, omelettes cooked to order, and homemade banana bread, and it keeps serving them all morning, so there is no penalty for a slow start. Alongside it comes the coffee: espresso pulled in the Italian style, from Colombian beans.
It is also a place built for staying a while. There is an area set aside specifically for people working on laptops, which is a good part of why the remote-working crowd has made it a fixture, and the café is pet friendly, so the dog is welcome at the table too.
