Café 4 Gatos

Pas cher et assez bien fait. Les produits sont des produits locaux et de qualité. L’ambiance est bonne et on peut prendre son temps.

What a find! In the middle of the Albaicin neighborhood, 4 Gatos is tiny with a few seating options in and out. But, don’t let that discourage you from eating here. It is very traditional and local. Be prepared for a good walk to get to it (no cars/​no parking). A very friendly staff, a beautiful location, a delightful café. Do it, you won’t be sorry!

Pretty good breakfast place. It’s a tiny place, not a lot of sitting and a popular place. The man behind the counter was nice and looked a little overwhelmed at times. Their pumpkin vanilla jam was delicious. Nice view of the Alhambra and close to the lookout point.

Très sympathique établissement, avec quelques places à l’intérieur, et quelques tables a l’extérieur, sur une terrasse en pente avec vue superbe sur l’Alhambra.
L’accueil est très agréable, la nourriture simple mais très bonne. On né force pas à la consommation, et on né nous pousse pas à partir vite pour laisser la place à d’autres clients.
Goutez les cookies, ils sont inoubliables!

Great spot in Albayzín. Staff was very nice. Delicious coffee drinks and the toast with the pumpkin spread tasted like a dreamsicle. Generous serving sizes.

On peut difficilement faire plus chou que cette petite terrasse, calée sur une placette, sur les pentes de l’Albaicín.
Il faudra donc grimper un peu, de bon matin, pour profiter d’un super petit-​déjeuner ensoleillé!
A la carte, 4 formules de petit dej, avec toujours une boisson chaude et un jus d’orange frais.
Mon copain a opté pour la «especial 4 gatos», composée d’un grand toast de tomates à l’huile d’olive (4,80 €). Moi j’ai fait dans le plus classique avec la formule «alto en fibra», composée d’un Muesli/​fromage blanc/​bananes (6,70 €).
A midi, vous trouverez des sandwichs pour seulement 2,50−3,50 €!
L’accueil est souriant et sympa.
Une super adresse pour démarrer la journée en beauté !

Small café with limited seating inside. A few tables are arranged outside. The current breakfast menu features four types of «toast». The toast is ciabatta bread and is large enough to share. Breakfast is served with coffee and freshly squeezed juicez Amazing café con leche. Very friendly staff. The café features artwork from a local artist.

Café 4 Gatos, or 4 cats, was a great recommendation from a local; we popped in here for breakfast.
We’d originally wanted to sit outside as this café is situated in a small but lovely cobbled courtyard, with covered seating, but it was too cold, so we opted to go inside. First impressions were very positive, we had to sit at the bar, they only had a few tables as the place was too small… But I instantly loved the laid back Jazz playing and found the bright artwork aligning the walls was very easy on the eye.
Coffee was great quality, orange juice freshly squeezed and I enjoyed the twist on the traditional Desayuno (of bread and tomato purée), with salmon and capers. The bread was just so crisp and topping such as delicious combination.
However the most outstanding was the carrot cake, which had also been recommended, and you could tell why, with around 4 other people ordering it whilst we were there, one of which who reordered another slice to take with them!
Indeed it was one of the best ones I’ve tried, with thin icing, not making it too sugary, fluffy moist and a complete delight.
Not the cheapest you’ll find, but still extremely reasonably priced.
Also great if you’re English as they understand, and have the menu in this language.

Great little café in the Arab quarter with a nice view of Alhambra. so sit outside if you can! There are just a couple of guys working behind the bar and they’re awesome. You can get delicious toasts + a coffee for less than 4 euros. Worth visiting in the morning on your way to the Mirador San Nicholas!

Tiny place in the old Arabic quarter with 4 tables outside and a few bar stools. Serve a variety of breakfast items and home made cakes. The carrot cake comes highly recommended.
Food looks fresh and the coffee is good and strong.

This place is great ! Exclamation mark!
Really good coffee and food. Tostada con tomate is delicious. Very friendly staff, and newspapers available.
So that would be about anything you’d want after a walk up the hill.

This is a cute place with a beautiful view (worth hiking up the hill for). The coffee is better than the touristy places down by the cathedral, and the tostada con jamon y tomate is some of the best I’ve had in Spain (and I’ve been many places).

Best, most affordable lunch we have had in Spain. The staff was super friendly and the ambiance was cute.

Really good breakfast! Loved the salmon on toast and eggplant with goat cheese. Definitely coming back for some more :)

Best breakfast we had in Granada hands down and I have tried a lot. 1^st, location is unique. Have to be a walker to find it. 2^nd, quality is just spot on. Try the smoked salmon tostada. Pure melting in your mouth baby. Ahhhh ya. Also, when in Spain always take advantage of the fresh squeezed orange juice. When I asked my friend visiting from CT. He said that Americans would not like it because of all the pulp. Then he went on to tell of an encounter in a restaurant where he heard the waiter giving a choice of fresh squeezed or tropicana and the American client said «oh Tropicana». Does not surprise me. Most of us are not aware of quality even when it slaps us in our face. 3^rd, very friendly and attentive staff. Only downfall lots of flies.
Overall. Great spot!!!

Cute café in the Albayzin neighborhood with a view of Alhambra! Unfortunately, we didn’t make it for breakfast, but we had a snack there. The beers came with a delicious free tapa (machego cheese, bread, and olives) and we had the lox sandwich which was tasty! The bartender was friendly.

I got a café con leche and their lox with pickled cyprese sandwich. Great combination of flavors. They do a self service here, and the service was on point. And did I mention this café and bar has an amazing view of the Alhambra? I recommend this place to locals and travelers who are in Granada. Breakfast, Lunch, and maybe dinner.

Cute place. I was so happy to get muesli with milk and a banana for breakfast. The toast with tomato or ham is very good as well.

Great little café at the base of the Albacín. The full order of toast can be split by two people, otherwise order the «mediano.»

Great breakfast options! Toast with jam and butter is absolutely delicious as well as their omega 3 special. Only rip off is that there are no gatos in sight :(

Ein wirklich wunderbares Caffe an einem sehr schönen Ort, definitiv nicht das günstigste und trotz des auch auf Touristen ausgelegten Menüs von Frühstück und Müsli ein sehr angenehm alternatives Publikum aus der nahen Umgebung.
Nette Bedienung, kleine aber leckere Kuchenauswahl, ein für spanische verhältnisse guter Caffe und top sandwiches.
Great place for chillaxing and watching people.

100% recomendable, una paradita, un descanso en un remanso de paz. Buen café, buenos productos, simpatía y buena atención. De lo mejor del barrio.

Simple things like toast with butter and jam taste awesome here. Great latte too. Owner speaks English. Nice little local café.

Free wifi, good cortado (i.e., macchiato), awesome carrot cake. I normally don’t like too sweet pastries, which I’ve been discovering a lot in Spain. However, this cake was perfect in suger content. Not too sweet and moist. It’s a great location if you want to stop for a coffee or snack. A short distance from the strip of Albaicin shops. Minus one star because there are a few pesky flies buzzing about. It seems that there are many restaurants in the area that has this problem since open doors without screens are common here. However, this café could use a good a couple of fly traps as I had three flies buzzing about my head.

As good as it gets in the Albaizin quarter in Granada. Have breakfast coffee cake or just a nice vino and a tapa, all in high quality at very good prices…
