Nelson (CLOSED)

The hum of customers is a regular feature of this iconic shop in the Gràcia neighbourhood, and even more so since the proprietor, Jordi Valls, decided to install a small bar and a few high tables and stools. While before punters went in just to buy recently toasted coffee, now they stay to drink a cup as well, and pack the place out in the process. There are six varieties on offer – Etiòpia, Brasil, Nicaragua, Kènia, Colòmbia – and you can also pair your brew with a brioche.
