Yes, call me a hipster or a wannabe hipster or whatever but I really like Mirante 9 de Julho,…read moreespecially the coffee from Isso é Cafe ! This spot, right above the 9 de Julho Avenue and behind MASP, was abandoned until the city government and a couple of groups of businessmen decided to renovate it and ever since its been an awesome place. Its quieter on weekdays abut weekends are quite full - besides the great coffee at one end, a quick food joint at the other, they also have a basic functioning bar (beer and other alcoholic options), an interesting view and a really awesome ambience. On weekends they also organise open air movei screenings or a DJ plays and the place gets even more interesting. The decor of the place is clean, well organised - if you order food or coffee, they give you a buzzer so that you can go and pick up you food/drink. Talking about the café there - Isso é Cafe - nice Brazilian coffee at reasonable prices with effect services - however on weekends they tend to be slower. I normally go for their regular brewed option at R$ 5 which is like a huge mug of awesome black coffee - at just the right roast & temperature. if you want a refill, it costs you another R$ 2.50 so for all you coffee gulpers, this is the place. Also its quite a cool place for a weekday date. I like Mirante, I love the ambience and I am going to be frequenting it quite a bit more !
