More than just a café, they are a dedicated roastery with a mission, known for ethically sourcing and supporting women throughout the coffee industry for years. Their reputation precedes them, we’ve even spotted their beans in shops as far away as China. The menu hanging above the bar reflects their commitment to the craft.

Since its opening, we've been intrigued by Casa Raíz, which has quickly established itself as one of Ruzafa's most popular cafés.
