This refurbished spot in El Carmen combines beautiful design with a thoughtful approach to coffee and food. The architecture and interiors are a big draw, but so is the Spanish–Asian fusion menu that runs from specialty drinks to brunch and all-day dishes. They brew with NOMAD beans, which means the espresso and cortado are always solid choices for those who like bold, rich flavors. On warmer days, the iced latte or matcha are refreshing go-tos, and their seasonal specials often announced on Instagram are worth keeping an eye out for. Beyond coffee, you’ll also find natural wines, pastries, and cakes made in-house, making it an easy place to spend an afternoon. Whether you’re stopping in quickly or planning to stay, it’s a café that covers a lot of bases without losing its focus on quality. ⭐️ Beautiful interiors 🍷 Coffee + natural wine 🥐 Brunch, pastries & all-day food

FAV COFFEE

Ciutat Vella

FAV COFFEE

Located right beside the Turia Park, FAV Coffee is the perfect stop after a walk through the city center or a morning in the gardens. They have been using Hola Coffee for as long as we can remember, and the quality of their service is always high, with consistently great espresso and filter options. Inside, the space is bright and modern, though it is relatively limited in size. Despite the compact interior, it remains one of our favorite places to bring a laptop and get some work done during the week; for this reason, it is featured in our guide to the <a href="https://www.coffeelobo.com/coffee-blog/beyond-the-desk-a-curated-guide-to-valencia-s-work-friendly-cafes-part-1">best places to work in Valencia</a>. On sunny weekends, the vibe shifts as the terrace fills up with a mix of locals and visitors enjoying the Valencia weather. Beyond the coffee, they offer a simple yet quality food menu, ranging from classic tomato toast to more substantial plates for the brunch crowd. It's a reliable, high-quality neighborhood spot that never disappoints.

Blackbird (Little)

Ciutat Vella

Blackbird (Little)

The smaller, take-away sibling of the original Blackbird in Ruzafa, located on a popular walking route through El Carmen. It distills the full cafe experience down to the essentials: beans from Right Side Roasters and a limited but high-quality selection of handmade sandwiches and snacks that often sell out quickly. The food is always packed with flavour, and the fresh pastries are worth arriving early for. A convenient specialty coffee stop if you are exploring Ciutat Vella on foot.
