Mamey Librería Café

Top choice in Santo Domingo


This fashionable cafe, art gallery, bookstore and cinema is housed within the charming former abode of Emilio Rodríguez Demorizi, one of the Dominican Republic's first historians. Featuring stone courtyards, a fountain with a flowering trinitaria and vertical gardens, the space is ideal for relaxing with a book or grabbing a drink with friends. The small menu includes empanadas, salads, quiche and hummus and falafel.

Mamey is serious about coffee: choose from French press, pour over, Chemex, iced, a nutella frappe or a cup mixed with mamajuana.
