A corner bodegón in San Telmo that has been doing the same thing for decades. Dark wood panels, tiled floor, a window seat that looks onto the street, and the particular quiet of a bar where the regulars read newspapers at the corner table without ever feeling observed. The coffee is short and strong; the facturas come from the same bakery they always have. The bookshop street is two blocks north.
