El Café Literario
El Café Literario (Literary Café), located in the historical center of Asunción, acts as the meeting place for literature lovers who want to discuss or read a good book while enjoying a drink or snack. The cozy café is especially praised for its delicious, freshly squeezed fruit juices and pastries. With a calm and quirky atmosphere, rustic furniture and old-fashioned film posters, El Café Literario provides a welcome shelter from the hustle and bustle of Asuncion’s streets. The walls are lined with books by a wide range of Paraguayan and foreign authors, whose publications are available to read on the spot. Moreover, lucky visitors might get the chance to glimpse an exhibition upstairs as local artists sometimes display their work in the café.

El Bolsi
Well located in central Asunción, El Bolsi restaurant was established in 1960 in a late 19th century house classified as a historic site. Featured in various magazines, Bolsi invariably ranks among the top ten restaurants in Asunción despite its basic, even bare appearance and simple fare. The specialty of the house has to be the surubi fish with parsley and coconut milk, served in a ceramic dish. A trusted cheap eat in the city, El Bolsi has seen generation after generation of faithful customers come in and, according to popular opinion, has always provided its customers with delicious food.
Luna Vinera Bistro & Bar
The Luna Vinera is nestled in an old, wood-decorated house, and offers both traditional Paraguayan and international fare. The Luna Vinera is famous for its original menu, which boasts innovative coconut milk and ginger based dishes, as well as regional specialties such as the ceviche, a marinade of seafood popular in South America. The lights, the jazz and the colors give this spot a laid back feel with an intimate, romantic twist. On balmy moonlit nights, guests can enjoy their meal in the inner courtyard, where luxuriant plants and candles are abundant.
