Centro was the city's first coffee neighborhood, long before Roma existed as we know it. Then it stopped being one for sixty years.
This route uses coffee as an excuse to walk into four buildings you otherwise wouldn't: a third floor with tall windows onto 5 de Mayo, the entryway of a working print shop, and a bar that turns into something else at seven.
