“Nada está perdido si se tiene por fin el valor de proclamar que todo está perdido y que hay que empezar de nuevo.”
–Julio Cortázar

Suklaa
If there’s something they shouldn’t miss, it’s experiencing the whole: the care put into a drink, a good freshly made dessert, and the feeling that the space and atmosphere were made for you.
-

Solovino Café
Before knowing how to steam milk, calibrate a grinder, or make great chilaquiles, it’s essential to understand that hospitality is the most important thing for us.
-

Alabastro Café
It was born as a dream shared by two girls aged eight and seven, which became reality twenty years later. From the beginning, we wanted to create a space where people could enjoy a delicious cup of coffee and a good dessert, or have breakfast in harmony.
-

Cacto Café
Cacto began as a hobby, like many others we have. We enjoy photography and painting; there are some printed photos and paintings made by us displayed around. Cacto is the materialization of our personality and passions.
-

Blah Blah Café
When tables fill with ceramics, watercolors, or wine glasses, the space transforms and becomes a creative meeting point. Seeing people connect with each other is probably the most rewarding part.
-

Café Begonia
Inside, we become one—there’s a transformation within the chaos and rhythm. It’s meaningful to realize how many hands it takes to make this possible, and it’s deeply motivating to experience the full process: seeing the effort behind every drink and dish that reaches the table.
-

Pasguato
The name comes from something very personal: my grandma calls her children and grandchildren “pazguatos.” It means something like “silly,” but in an affectionate tone. I liked writing it with an “s” instead of a “z”; making it my own. The project has that spirit too: not taking things too seriously, but still doing them with intention.
-

Celaje Café
No matter what time of day it is, when you enter this space you lose track of time because of how cozy it feels. It’s a concept not everyone has; you find creative and unique details in every corner.
-

Calidia
Part of the Calidia experience is that, each season or month, our customers can discover a new menu. We design the bakery items, beverages, and food from scratch, offering innovative options alongside our fixed menu.
-

Bombs Coffee
The intention was to bring a different concept to Durango: a space that combined technique, innovation in beverages, and clear inspiration from international projects that understood coffee as an experience, not just consumption.
-

Bailongo
Managing events, collaborations, exhibitions, music sessions, as well as the curatorship needed to keep the space alive, requires a much greater investment of time and energy than we imagined, and it forced us to understand that the project isn’t just a physical place but a living community where bonds are formed.
-

La Helena
There were no nearby projects offering coffees from other parts of Mexico, and that seemed like a huge challenge. I didn’t know if the neighborhood would take it well, but the goal was clear: to create a decentralized project and build a community.
