Where to get coffee in downtown La Paz
Pour-over by our front door, an all-day coffee institution and the best croissants in Centro: our favorite coffee stops in downtown La Paz.
Mornings in La Paz start slow, and they start with coffee. These are the three places we send friends and guests first, all a short walk from Colibri Guest House.
Café Bélier
Café Bélier is just down our street — pour-over espresso and coffee, a couple of seats inside, and cute umbrellas over a little spot out front with a few snacks to go with.
Doce Cuarenta
Doce Cuarenta is the city's beloved coffee institution: proper espresso, a pastry case worth planning around, and a big, buzzy room where people post up for hours — not just a morning stop.
Amelier 21
And Amelier 21, in Centro, might be our top pick of the bunch — exceptional croissants, fresh bread and sweets, great coffee, air-conditioning inside and picnic tables out, and genuinely friendly service.
More from our drinks guides: daytime hangs, beer, wine, mezcal, cocktails.
Staying at Colibri Guest House? Every place here is an easy walk or a short ride from the house, and the walk home along the Malecón is half the fun. We open in February 2027, and booking requests are open now.
