Lonely Planet review for Museo de Café

There's a lot of information in the Museo de Café, almost all of it in Spanish, and very little actually pertains to coffee. Staff, however, who also operate a tour desk, are highly caffeinated, offer free cups of coffee, and also sell bags of the stuff.

This is actually more of a Nicaragua and Matagalpa history museum. It begins with a nice archaeology display, then segues into high-school-quality exhibitions about the city and region, from photos of beauty-contest winners past and present through a list of Latin America's great liberators, from Bolivar to Martí.

    Excellent museum, everything in English and Spanish

    andymk recommends this,

    All signs are in English and Spanish. The museum covers local and regional history, the history of coffee in the region, and some about coffee production as well. Well worth the admission price (free!) and local coffee is available for sale on the way out.
