Bogotá Restaurants

The most traditional recipes aim to fill the belly and ward off the cold. Soups, such as ajiaco and puchero (with chicken, pork, beef, potato, yucca, cabbage, corn, and plantain and accompanied by rice and avocado) are common on local menus. Bogotanos like to start the day off with santafereño, a steaming cup of chocolate accompanied by a slab of cheese—you melt the cheese in the chocolate. Lunch is generally served between noon and 2. Restaurants open for dinner around 7, and the more upscale ones stay open until after midnight.

  • 1. Amor Perfecto

    $

    One of the pioneers in Bogotá's burgeoning coffee-shop movement, Amor Perfecto has continued to source some of the best beans around. With plenty of comfy sofas surrounded by warm brick walls and wood floors, it's a pleasure to hang out here and soak up the coffee-spiced atmosphere. Every brew method is on hand, but don't miss the espresso---it's arguably the best in town.

  • 2. Azahar Cafe

    $

    A shipping container turned coffee shop, this Parque de la 93 café has a small, inviting wooden deck with scattered tables. It's the brainchild of two Americans who, when backpacking through South America some 10 years ago, fell hopelessly in love with Colombian coffee and threw themselves into the market. Now they source and roast some of the best local beans, with plenty of modern brewing methods offered up by knowledgeable and passionate baristas.

  • 3. Catación Pública

    $

    This long, narrow shop, with a coffee lab and roastery in the back, feels equal parts café and coffee school. The walls are lined with tables and decorated with informative posters that show off Colombia's coffee regions and the flavor profiles of their beans. The long counter at the entrance is packed with the available coffees, each in a glass jar, inviting visitors to examine and smell before making a choice. As with all Bogotá's best coffee shops, every modern method imaginable is available to prepare your coffee, and the talented baristas will be sure to recommend the best method for each bean or region.

  • 4. Crêpes & Waffles Arte-Sano

    $

    This unique chain of Latin American–Spanish restaurants serves—surprise!—crepes and waffles, as well as a delicious selection of ice-cream desserts. There are locations all over the city, but this trendy new branch in Zona G has taken the concept to a more refined, healthier level, without losing the guilty-pleasure angle. It's great for breakfasts, when you can get a pumpkin pancake with artisanal granola and Greek yogurt accompanied by a freshly squeezed juice. Later in the day, plunge into the ever-changing range of savory crepes that are stuffed with everything from portobellos and asparagus to chicken curry or beetroot marmalade, goat cheese, and sprouts.

  • 5. Empanadas Argentinas y Algo Mas

    $

    Marked by it’s faded green door and small flag, this tiny kiosk brings a slice of Argentina to the streets of Usaquen, complete with a faded Quilmes beer sign on the wall. Great empanadas grace the menu, as well as a few other treats like a sandwich de milanesa (an Argentinean beef schnitzel sandwich) or alfajores de maizena (a layered corn-flour cookie with a dulce de leche filling and coconut sprinkles).
