Kafema: Las Palmas de Gran Canaria’s Favourite Coffee Spot Just Got Even Better
Coffee lovers, this one’s for you. Whether you like your caffeine classic and bold or trendy and iced, Kafema is the name you need to know in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Already adored for their expertly brewed coffee and swoon-worthy pastries, this local gem has just added a third location to its line-up. More coffee, more cake, more places to hang out? Yes please.
☕ Seriously good coffee in every cup
At Kafema, coffee isn’t just a simple hot beverage. It’s a craft. They roast their own beans, which means what you’re sipping is fresh, flavourful, and made with care. Whether you’re in the mood for a creamy flat white, a punchy espresso or something a little different, you’re in for a treat.
They also do cold brew for the sunny days, pour overs for the purists, and everything is made by baristas who really know their stuff.
What to order:
- Flat white, always dependable
- Espresso, when you mean business
- Cold brew, ideal for beach days or long walks down Avenida Marítima
🥯 The smoked salmon bagel you’ll think about later
Yes, the coffee is the headline act, but the food deserves its own fan club. The baked goods are fresh and flaky, the cakes are dangerously good, and the brunch options are proper soul food.
My personal favourite? The smoked salmon bagel. Soft, chewy, perfectly toasted and topped with creamy cheese and fresh, delicate salmon. It’s the kind of breakfast that turns a regular Monday morning into something worth celebrating.
They’ve also got golden croissants, toasts topped with avo and eggs, banana bread, brownies, and plenty of veggie-friendly bites. Well, the menu often changes with seasonal specials, so there’s always something new to try. Let’s just hope they keep that salmon swimming!
☕ One brand, three beautiful cafés
Kafema has grown in all the right ways. From its roots in Triana, it’s now serving up good vibes and great coffee in three spots across the city, each with its own flavour.
1. Triana – The original
Found on Calle Escritor Benito Pérez Galdós, this one’s a local favourite. It’s bright, calm and perfect for quiet mornings, quick coffee stops or catching up with friends over something sweet.
2. Las Canteras – Breezy and beach-adjacent
At a stones throw distance from the beach on Calle José Franchy Roca, this one’s got a laid-back charm. Grab a cold brew, sit outside, and soak up the salty air and people-watching possibilities.
3. Mesa y López – The shiny new one
The latest addition is on Calle Ruiz de Alda, right in the buzz of the city’s shopping zone. It’s modern, sleek and super convenient, whether you’re running errands or just need a quiet spot to recharge.
Each café keeps that signature Kafema warmth and consistency, with friendly staff and a welcoming vibe that makes it easy to become a regular.
