One of my favorite places to see in Buenos Aires. The idea of a bookstore in an old theatre is absolutely enchanting. Having coffee on the stage is cool, but a little pricey. I love how you can read in the old boxes from the theatre.

Worth visiting even if you don't read Spanish. The view from cafeteria, which was formerly a stage, is gorgeous. Was happy to find a photo collection book of art deco & modernism architectures in Buenos Aires. However the books are expensive compared to the standard of US.

We stopped here for a couple of (pricey) coffees at the cafe and a stroll around this converted theatre. The walls are lined with many tiers for spanish speaking book lovers to choose from. (there is a very small english speaking section for those interested). It won't take long to have a look, so fit it into your schedule to... More

Beautiful bookstore in a converted theater, with a full service cafe on the former stage. Each level and selections of books and media, with select sitting areas (mostly in the balcony seating). Wide selection of Spanish language books. There may have been some English books too. Was too distracted with the Old World theater architecture to really look for sure.

Sweet bookstore. Plenty of material, not filled with ¨dummy¨ books like the ones in my country. Nice place, it´s an old theater so I mean... They could include more places to sit and read. Their cafe is superly overpriced, can´t sit there and read as I like to consume several drinks while I research.

We visited this bookstore one evening so missed getting a coffee "onstage" in the restaurant but this is books and more in a wonderful space. I really enjoyed the children's section as they had so many wonderful, classic and new authors available in Spanish. They also had a great selection of CD's available. The English section is only a few... More

If you're walking past it on Santa Fe street it is easily missed. Pop in for a quick look, browse through the shelves, sit in one of the former boxes to lounge and flip through a book, or simply relax on stage while sipping on a coffee from the cafe. The photo ops are great. It's a unique spot.

Has to be seen to be believed really, no wonder the 'Guardian' named it in the world's top five bookstores (number two in fact!). Great music playing, and fun to have coffee 'on stage'! Easy to find along Avenida Sante Fe.

I just love theatres and this one is really amazing! Worths the visit for sure! About the coffee and sweets... don´t expect too much.
