"An opulent and traditional area known for its neoclassical architecture, historic cemetery, and luxurious hotels. It's a symbol of Buenos Aires's aristocratic past."

"Recoleta has a famous cemetery, , and La Biela, a cafe and restaurant with actual life-size statues of famous Argentine writers that’s been around since 1850. The kitchen is basically always open, but you should come for dinner before you go out in the neighborhood—order a plate of sirloin steak, known as bife de chorizo, with fries and a salad. " - Martín Chavesta

Come here before your day's adventure around Recoleta. Historic Cafe (with a large space for seating) that offers old-school service with waiters dressed up like the old days! We got one of the sandwiches, which was suprisingly good. Coffee was alright - wish we tried one of their specialty drinks with a little liquor but weren't in the mood that day. This place was divine! Be a little prepared to wait for your food/drink though

A very lively & traditional cafe with lots of indoor & outdoor sittings. We were there for late afternoon snacks - had coffee, sweet croissants, salty croissants, Cheese & ham sandwiches. Food & Service are very good. No English menu, tour guide helped us to pick the snacks Argentinian eat & we enjoyed it. Price is very reasonable. Highly recommend this place if you want to get the local Argentinian vibe.

Many indoor and outdoor seating. Many verity of foods. Sandwiches are good. Best for brunch since location is perfect to start your day in a great area to explore. Kids friendly as there is an open area / park closely. Public Parking is available. Service is amazingly quick and waters are responsive. Atmosphere is again great for groups, couples and kids.

Nice place great coffee, they do NOT take credit cards so know before you go. Well I was told no cc’s but they have signs and everyone is paying with a credit card so ?? I read another review about them not taking a woman’s CC and it is true. I thought maybe lost in translation, so asked again while everyone around me was paying with CC’s. Nope US $ or Pesos only. Not sure if it is a foreigner thing or a woman thing? But no tip was left. I will not return as I planned.

Skip the imported chain restaurants on the same block, this is a classic Buenos Aires cafe, the way it's supposed to be: classy, delicious and unpretentious

What a nice place to visit. Lot of motorsport trophys all over the place. Motorsport was only reason to visit here. Also great food.

I had lunch here before visiting Recoleta cemetery. I didn't know of the café until sat down, then read about its history and status as a notable café. The atmosphere was good, the decorations are traditional and there was a good buzz to the place. The food was average, I had a chicken and chips dish and the chips were disappointing. The service was good.
