A brunch-led kitchen in El Cabanyal that treats the coffee as seriously as the food, with named single origins and tasting notes on the menu, a batch brew filter, and a limited coffee that changes monthly. The founder trained as a barista at an SCA-endorsed school, and it shows in the cup.

A market stall in the Mercado del Grao pouring coffee from a family-run Valencia brand that prints altitude, process and tasting notes for every single origin. Go for a flat white between the fish and the produce counters.
