La Borra del Cafe is super dependable and a great place to work. You roll in on a Saturday night and the place is packed with students. The internet is way more reliable than any starbucks, and I think it is a lot more comfortable.
They have above average quality coffee. It sounds like I am being harsh, but there is so much EXCELLENT coffee in Guadalajara that I have had to adjust the scale that I use to evaluate a good espresso.
Mondays are 2x1. Seriously a great deal. There is safe bike parking and a valet out front, and they even have a drive through window.
I really like the Terranova location because this is my favorite restaurant district in the city. There are a dozen solid dinner locations within a couple of blocks and I can walk everywhere.
Give up your starbucks habit and head to the Borra del Cafe! read more
