Café Fargo Specialty Coffee Sagrada Familia

good specialty coffee in the eixample isn't hard to find, but café fargo on carrer de la marina earns a second look. this part of barcelona sits close enough to sagrada família that the neighbourhood hums with foot traffic all day, yet the café draws a locally-minded crowd rather than the tourists just passing through. specialty coffee here means the sourcing and preparation are taken seriously, not as a selling point but as a baseline. you'll notice the difference in how the cup holds up as it cools. worth arriving before the lunch rush, when carrer de la marina is still relatively quiet and you can actually sit with your coffee rather than drink it standing at the door.
