Located at Caffarena 64 in La Boca.

First off, if you venture over here, be careful on these streets day time. At night take a taxi.

Worth the visit though. Full of local characters, with a healthy buzz about the place. Reputedly frequented by Maradona, when he's not in Cuba on a detox program. The walls are plastered with his photos in various football teams and of him posing with the Obrero staff. Even though I don't like football and the bastard has a hand given to him by God, I was still impressed.

Food was plentiful and of a good standard with proper service and at a very reasonable price. Really you are coming here to soak up the atmosphere. Saturday lunchtime recommended.
