A cup of coffee



A cappuccino kick-start in the morning before a day spent exploring a new city; a rest in the afternoon with a latte and a slab of cake; a teeny tiny super-strong espresso after a gourmet dinner - coffee is the perfect travel companion.

    Cafe Lojano

    Posted by ChrisOC 15 May 2006

    Coffee-lovers who come to South America expecting the caffeine equivalent of a wine trip in France are in for a land. All the best produce is exported, and locals make do with the freeze-dried stuff connoisseurs turn their noses up at. But ambling through Cuenca’s Old Town, you suddenly wake up and smell the coffee. You follow your nose to a doorway, where stands a man, a manual coffee grinder and bags of fresh coffee. Alleluia! All you need now is a coffee pot …

    On Calle Sucre, near General Torres;
    Opening hours: standard Ecuador office hours, closed 1-3 for lunch
