10 cafes in Madrid to enjoy coffee (and stay a while)

An all-day café where time doesn't dictate anything

Clima Comedor is the natural evolution of Clima Cafecito . The project that Martín Di Stefano launched after his time in the United States—with a particular influence from the West Coast—takes another step forward here and transforms into an all-day café designed for lingering, without looking at the time.

Located in the Conde Duque neighborhood , the space is spacious, bright, and serene. Neutral tones, natural materials, and a comfortable layout create a relaxed atmosphere that invites you to unwind as soon as you step inside. Here, breakfast isn't tied to specific times : you can order it whenever you like, just like in the Californian diners that inspired its concept.

Specialty coffee is served alongside a more extensive menu than in its original location: toasted bread, eggs prepared in various ways, bowls, sandwiches, and classic dishes reinterpreted with a lighter, more modern twist. Juices, smoothies, and cocktails are also available.

Clima Comedor works well for both working and lingering over a meal , meeting up without rushing, or simply taking a long break in the middle of the day. A place where time stretches out and the plan adapts to you, not the other way around.

Everything is finely tuned, without excess, with attention to detail both in the cup and the saucer.

Frequented by cyclists, creatives, and local residents, Nofin serves as a meeting point without losing its tranquil character. A bright space where design and everyday life coexist naturally.
