If you’re visiting Colombia, trying the coffee is non-negotiable. As the world’s third-largest coffee producer—harvesting over 1.7 billion pounds each year—Colombia is famous for its rich, smooth, and aromatic beans. While the best coffee was once reserved for export, a growing specialty coffee culture now means you can taste world-class brews right here in Bogotá.
The capital is home to an exciting wave of third-wave coffee shops, barista schools, coffee tours, and even coffee parties, where coffee is treated as an artisanal experience rather than just a morning pick-me-up. These cafés often serve single-origin beans brewed to perfection—think slow pour-overs, French presses, and AeroPress.
Pro tip: order a pour-over black coffee and sip it before adding sugar or cream. You might be surprised at how naturally sweet and complex Colombian coffee can be.
Here are my top picks for the best specialty coffee shops in Bogotá to enjoy an unforgettable cup.
