Coffee in Malaga

Malaga takes its coffee seriously — and so do we. This guide maps 46 coffee spots across 11 neighborhoods, from third-wave roasters pulling single-origin espresso to quiet corner cafés where locals linger over a flat white. Every place here holds a 4.7★ average from real visitors, and none of them are the airport-style chains you'll find on every other list.

Start in La Victoria for the densest cluster of quality cafés, then wander outward. Names like Taybo Bagels & Coffee, Ganbaru Coffee, Mr you Coffee / Café de especialidad keep coming up in local recommendations for a reason — order what the barista suggests and you'll understand.
