Where to stop for espresso in Buenos Aires

Cuervo brings its house coffee to Palermo Soho; Negro offers a compact central counter on Suipacha. Öss Kaffe adds a smaller Roosevelt stop in the north of the city. These are neighbourhood choices rather than one walking route: start with the café nearest your day’s plans.
