Buenos Aires is the home of Café Bluma, a speciality coffee shop that blends great brews with warmth, sleek architecture and contemporary design, creating an inviting atmosphere for customers to feel at home and linger as long as they desire.
With interiors by architectural designers Muro Studio, the design is stripped back but thoughtful with light wood, soft neutrals and a smattering of lush greenery to keep things from feeling too polished. There’s an effortless harmony between the natural textures and the clean, modern lines, making it feel less like a commercial space and more like a well-designed living room where the cookies are exceptional, and the coffee even better.
Large windows flood the café with natural light, sharpening the contrast between the warm interiors and the bustling energy of Escobar outside. Seating is intimate and perfectly spaced to give customers just enough privacy without feeling detached from the hum of this café’s social side. Whether you’re a freelancer setting up camp for the morning, friends catching up over coffee, or a mum on the school run, time passes in a blur here, and that’s its appeal.
Without a doubt, the coffee is the star of Café Bluma. It’s serious business, and there’s an unmistakable reverence for the craft. The scent of freshly ground beans hits you as soon as you walk through the door, and each cup served is a testament to the expertise of the baristas.
Café Bluma isn’t trying too hard and that’s its charm. A place to create moments over speciality coffee, it’s the perfect example of a slow living concept transposed to an urban setting.
