A cafe set in a colonial courtyard a block from the Plaza de Armas, with a fountain in the middle, climbing vines, and a long list of local pisco sours. The food is fine, the wine list better than average, and the courtyard catches the breeze in the long Coquimbo afternoons.
A good place to sit and write, or to start an evening before moving on to Calle de la Barra. Live music some evenings, usually Chilean folk.
