Medellin is a city with tons of cafes and restaurants on every corner.

CAFE DRAGON
@mapsbymads
Café dragón has an amazing environment for grabbing a bite to eat and getting some work done. There are so many spots to sit and marvel at the details.
My personal favorite coffee drink is the ‘Energía Cósmica.’ A delicious mix of cold brew coffee and lemonade.
I also really like the ‘4 queso’ pizza. It has a touch of honey on top of the stone-oven baked crust, and it always hits the spot.

Campesino Café
@mapsbymads
Campesino cafe is one of my favorite places for a morning coffee or a quick snack. It’s not the most extensive menu, but it gets the job done. They also have one of the best palito de quesos I’ve ever tried, it has queso fundido inside, and I’m obsessed.
🌱 Veggie Friendly (mostly baked goods)

Urbania Café Calle 8 Astorga
@mapsbymads
There are many Urbania locations in El Poblado, but the location in Astorga is my favorite. They roast their own coffee in-house, so the die-hard coffee lovers will be in heaven. The menu is extensive for coffee-lovers and coffee-for-goers alike.
The cafe also offers coffee workshops, for those who want to learn the methods from the masters.

Best Cafés - NOT in El Poblado
Naturalia Café
@mapsbymads
Naturalia is one of my favorite cafes in the city. I love their menu, its incredible veggie-friendly and affordable. On top of that, the restaurant always smells so good. During the week Naturalia offers a menu del día for lunch and it always hits the spot.
Likewise, Naturalia bakes their own sweets and other bocadillos. My personal favorites are the banana bread, mushroom empanada, and the palito de queso with blueberry. Yum!
