Decata is a lovely breakfast and lunch spot, set out in classic coffee shop style. The menu offers healthy items such as yoghurt and granola, eggs and bacon, or sweeter treats such as fruit tarts. The interior is modern but with some quaint touches; rustic wooden beams, chalkboards and a traditional black and white tiled floor in keeping with the classic Buenos Aires cafe scene. Decata is located pretty much right at the centre of Las Cañitas, near to the polo field, making it an ideal spot for exploring the area.

Another great brunch spot, located just a short walk outside of Las Cañitas and into Palermo, is Libros del Pasaje, an enchanting bookshop with a quaint cafe inside. The walls are covered floor to ceiling with packed bookshelves, with makes a truly cosy and calm atmosphere. The cafe is at the back of the store, with a semi-conservatory glass roof and traditional black and white tiled floor. Unsurprisingly, customers in the cafe area are normally enjoying a recently purchased book, and visitors are welcome to stay and enjoy the ambience for a good few hours.
