Café Pamenar

Known forcommunity cafeKensington Marketcash onlyarts scene
Directions

A beloved Kensington institution that doubles as a community hub, art gallery, and live music venue. The coffee is solid and affordable, and the eclectic, mismatched décor gives it a genuinely bohemian feel that never feels manufactured. Cash-only policy and limited seating can be a minor inconvenience.
