    onno café

    AlmagroGood

    Onno describes itself as a café en casita, a coffee shop in a house, on Río de Janeiro in Almagro, a few blocks from the Ángel Gallardo stop on subway line B. It sits well away from the Palermo cluster. The Best Coffee Shops Argentina 2026, a national ranking decided by a jury and a public vote, placed Onno 31st in the country. It is worth the stop if you are near Almagro, Caballito or Villa Crespo.

    AlmagroGood

    Cobin is a small specialty coffee bar on the corner of Jerónimo Salguero and Plaza Almagro, a few steps from the Medrano subway station. Besides espresso drinks it brews filter coffee by hand, including Chemex, and it sells the beans it uses, ground to the size you need for your brewer at home. Seating is a few tables and bar stools, and dogs are welcome. Order a filter and ask which beans they are brewing.

    Las Heliconias coffee roasters

    AlmagroGood

    Las Heliconias is a Colombian family business that grows, processes and imports coffee from its own farm, then roasts it in Buenos Aires in small batches. It says each lot comes with its story: who grew it, how it was processed and when it was roasted. Its tasting room at Avenida Belgrano and Yapeyú, in Almagro, opens on weekdays during office hours. Come here to taste a Colombian coffee with a direct line to the farm, and ask about the lot in the cup.
