O Mundo De Alicia is by thus far my favorite café that I've had the pleasure of being introduced…read moreto in Córdoba (thank you, my dear Spanish intercambio). With a whimsical, minimalistic interior and relatively quiet ambiance, this café is a place to come by when you want to study, meet and talk with companions, and even maybe do a language exchange trivia night once every week.
The coffees and teas are nothing particularly special, but I do like their torta de frambuesa y chocolate. It's dense and has more of a cheesecake-texture than anything, and it's a great deal for 2 people to share for 3 EU total. You can also find your typical array of Spanish beverages here, including cervezas and tinto de verano.
If you're looking for a combo, there are options where you can get a tostada (toasted bread with toppings) and beverage for anywhere from 2-3 EU, more or less. From memory, an orange juice & tostada con jamón is around 3,15 EU. Admittedly while not the absolute best of deals you can typically find in Córdoba, it's doable.
While studying in cafés seems to be more of an American thing, nevertheless I'll say that studying here can be quiet pleasant, although not highly recommended after the sun sets. Lights inside are dim and unless you're working on your ordenador/laptop, it'll pose a problem. So while it's not the ideal place to idly sit and read or study with some simple beverages and array of snacks, come on over because it's lovely.
