9am-1am Sat, 10am-1am Sun; )
Perfect for combining with a visit to the nearby Museo
Municipal de Bellas Artes, this enchanting cafe-bookshop-gallery occupies a beautiful
house that has stained glass and an enticing patio. Innovative food, good breakfasts, cof-
fees and juices make this one of Rosario's most relaxing spots.
Pasaporte
CAFE, BAR
(cnr Maipú & Urquiza; 8am-late Mon-Sat; )
Sublimely cozy with a pretty terrace and
timeworn wooden furniture, this is a favorite for morning coffee with workers from the
customs department opposite. But it also has a great evening atmosphere, particularly
when the rain's pouring outside.
El Cairo
CAFE, BAR

cnr Sarmiento & Santa Fe; 7am-1am Mon-Thu, 7am-3am Fri & Sat,
4pm-1am Sun; )
High-ceilinged and elegant, with huge panes of glass for people-watch-
ing (and vice versa), this classic Rosario cafe is good at any time of day, but especially in
the evening, when it mixes a decent cocktail and puts on good Argentine pub grub. This
is also one of the rare places that serve
mate
(a bitter ritual tea).
La Sede
CAFE
(

;
Entre Ríos 599; 8am-midnight or later; )
In a striking modernist
building, this is a very Argentine cafe with a literary feel and art exhibited on the walls.
Come here to read a book, enjoy the draft beer, cakes and quiches or, at weekends, catch
an offbeat live performance in the cozy downstairs space.

Francia 168; noon-late Tue-Fri, 6pm-late Sat & Sun; )
You can
smell the malt at this brewpub, where the delicious ales are produced right beneath your
feet. It's a fine place to start exploring this bar-rich nightlife zone, and it also does a
handy line in quesadillas, burgers and salads. The roof terrace is good on a warm even-
ing. It's northwest of the city center, near the train station.
