Los Olvidados Coffee Shoppe & Gallery

Los Olvidados is a cool café with a Santa Fe vibe and a carefully, curated collection for the five senses. At every turn, each corner was thoughtfully composed. The menu has enough variation to keep you interested but not too much to thrust you into executive dysfunction. Given the heat during our visit, we ordered from the aguas frescas section: El Quetzal y Pura Pasión. They were fresh and pulpy. You could see the natural separation of the fiber and juice. Perfectly refreshing. As you wait, you can browse their music selection, vintage T-shirts or just take in the music playing overhead. The tables are separated into sections creating intimacy despite the large openness of the building. As an introvert who dislikes congregate seating, that’s always a plus. Judging by the many stickers under the counter, it seems this place has many visitors and is well-loved. I hope it stays that way for many years to come.

A unique coffee spot nestled inside a local beer garden. Do yourself a favor and stop on by to try some specialty coffee drinks like the Cubanito and the Celia Cruz. While there are tables, you can also grab a seat at the bar or on one of the couches. They also offer books and board games to play with friends while you enjoy the afternoon.

Vibes are sooo good! Bit difficult parking since it’s downtown but SO WORTH IT! We enjoy the evening exhibitions, that promote local art & music

Incredible coffee shop! Such a great option from corporate coffee! The staff is friendly and the drinks are great! The ambiance, vibe and art are amazing! I look forward to all my visits here!

Been here a few times and we liked it. On this day the girl working was just not very friendly. She seemed bothered by us waiting to order and then waiting to get our order. I will never go to this place again as It is not cheap, I am a customer and did not appriciate her treating me or my daughters with the attitude. I do not understand how when you are a customer employees treat you like you are bothering them when you are trying to support small businesses.

Los Olvidados is a vibe! It is unlike any other coffee shop in Laredo. The atmosphere is chill and eclectic. More importantly the coffee is delicious! I always get the Celia Cruz and the Mestizo. I’ve also had some of their agua frescas and they are very good too. They host art shows and music showcases regularly. Los Olvidados brings a different energy to Downtown Laredo.

10/10 the coffee and horchata I ordered was perfect. The vibe was so nice and the service was excellent! Will come again 🩷

I find myself someone picky about places to hang out, Olvidados has made me feel welcomed, the vibe out here is different and customer service feels like a family instead of corporate management. This is one of my favorites spots in town, they can be slow at times but if you come often you will understand why, they take their time to assure the quality its always good and smooth. I haven't attended much of its events but im totally supporting this place. Coffee its good, customer service superb. Oh just one thing I could point out... Dont get macaroons lol avoid those I dont even think they make em there but its a third party/local person selling em there. That is all

Loved their iced coffees! Checked this place out ion March 31st, the place was a bit dark but nice, the coffee was really good, the service fast and courteous.

Walked there from la posada hotel. Opens a bit late for a coffee shop but good coffee with lots of options on menu. Great indoor vibes and helpful barista as well

Must visit! Locally owned! Great service, incredible music the drinks and food is a plus. I ordered the Elotin and El Mazunte! Reasonable prices and a great stop if you are trying to meet a friend or grab a quick coffee.

Cool place, neat stuff, great drinks, excellent music. Definitely recommend the cucumber lemonade drink.

This is a super cool place to hang out, study, or just have a moment. Their drinks are excellent and their aguafrescas are off the charts. They use all fresh ingredients. They don't use gross, sugary syrups and their menu changes frequently. They're doing their part to bring Laredo's downtown into this century.
