A
Boulevard
Laid-back streetside café without, and smooth Gallic restaurant within, this is the place to relax and let the world traipse by. On offer are delicious fondues, pizzas, crepes and enormous salads with zesty dressings. Service is hit or miss, but the fixed lunch is definitely worth it. There’s occasional live music.

Café Export
This is a funky cavelike spot with an intimate interior: low candlelit tables, roaring fire and prehistoric-style daubing on the walls. Despite off-putting touts hovering on its doorstep, and the loud music, it is hugely popular for strong coffee, homemade pasta and decent pizzas.

Restaurant La Bomba
Pass the shiny red engine to reach this unpretentious café in the local fire station. If you can’t find it, listen for its deafening siren at noon. There’s nothing particularly spectacular about the food, which focuses on Chilean fare, but you can’t beat the setting.

Schop 21
This plain-faced café hogs a corner of the city's main pedestrian mall, onto which it spills in a haphazardly shaded patio. It offers condiment-heavy sandwiches, pizzas, coffee and lager to keep people-watchers fed and watered.

Tortas y Tartas
Relax on the open-air terrace with a beer or head here for a late breakfast and some of the best coffee in town. The food is surprisingly good, featuring an eclectic mix from teriyaki chicken to a salad topped with fresh salmon.
