    I heard about this coffee shop and finally made my way there this morning. There are tables and chairs indoors ( two- level) and outdoors. Cozy and relaxing. Around 12:30 pm, the place was super busy. Nice to meet the house dog in the morning when I got there. Cappuccino ( 170 lek) on a big cup compared to other place was flavorful. There are some pastries as well. I love the coffee jazz, lounge music. Wifi is fast.

    Coffee was good, but service was a bit slow, waited over 10 mins. The apple pie tasted nice but would have been better either hot or cold. The ice cream had good flavour but had crystallised. Cash only.

    Silence is so sacred and you dont find it in most bars in Tirana. Too loud music makes it hard to enjoy. La Porteña is like a little oases, with great music, great service and a flavour of Argentina. They allow dogs as well, so to me would be enough 🥰

    Amazing place. We were coming here for a tango lesson every Wednesday and enjoyed the place as much as learning Argentinian tango dance. One of a very few places in Tirana serving tea. And I have to admit, this is a delicious tea! 🫖 ✨

    Friendly staff, however: Tasteless and awful coffee, overpriced for its quality. Plenty of better options in Tirana. Surprising rating here given how subpar the coffee is.

    Good ham and cheese. Also, good music selection and music volume. The decaf coffee was really good, but regular latte and cappuccino was a bit weak.

    the place is beautiful and the food delicious, it has alfajores, croissants and empanadas. A piece of Argentina is there, highly recommended! the owners are very friendly and you can see the passion what they have in the costumer services! If you are in tirana don't miss it!

    Great quiet place to relax and have a very good coffee. The bar has a very chill vibe, good choice of background music, the kitchen offers a wide and tasty range of foods from traditional to some exotic dishes, plus the owners are super friendly, and pleasant to chat with. Highly recommended

    Tasteful coffee and delicious desserts! The staff is super friendly! Make sure to visit during the first shift of day, as you will find the cutest and smartest dog ever, Leo!

    I love this place! The owners are super friendly and their adorable puppy comes to hang out sometimes. The chai tea and fresh ginger tea are amazing! It's one of my favorite cafes in Tirana!

    Very good Cappuccino 👍 Friendly place.

  • 5/5 Fernando L. 2 years ago on Google
    Tiranë -> Buenos Aires in 5'. You will sense the very flavours of the tango in this beautiful and warmful place. You must try the home made "medialunas", "alfajores" and the toast. The attention to every detail in the service, make it impossible not to return.

👍👍 The house salad is next level. The squid was a bit chewy, but the pistachio soufflé has become my favorite dessert in Tirana. The service is great and even the bread and butter taste good! Plus, you can pay with credit card. Absolutely love this place.
