We like coffee. For this reason, we could not overlook the International Coffee Day with three original recipes to taste it in a good cup and celebrate it in one of our most special places, our coffee shop in Castellón.
Our Ofelia’s second place opened its doors 3 years ago as a concept store, it was renewed two years later and become a very special coffee shop. Without giving up its origin, with a decoration as exquisite as its gastronomic offer, you can live in it a very unique and totally immersive experience in Ofelia’s world: from savouring a delicious and full breakfast in the morning, a lunch to continue the day, to an elaborate menu for lunch and snack. In its tremendously cozy atmosphere, you can taste rich and natural sweet and salty dishes and, of course, the best coffee. We do not exaggerate, behind our wood and stone bar counter, you will find a unique coffee maker in all Castellón, La Marzocco, considered La Ferrari of the Italian espresso, from which we serve you a 100% Arabica specialty coffee.
Carefully designed, this coffee shop has been decorated with pieces from our own catalogue, so you can buy your favourite objects while you are enjoying a moment of relaxation and convey that same feeling to your home.
If you are thinking of visiting us, we are in C/ O'Donnell, 1 Monday to Friday from 08:30h to 20:30h and Saturdays from 09:30h to 20:30h. You will feel at home.

citrus americano
Ingredients:
- coffee beans
- an orange
- brown sugar or honey
Elaboration:
Orange is a fruit widely recognized for its high vitamin content and its refreshing taste. However, for many it may be surprising that citrus can also enhance the flavour of coffee. When we add orange slices to a cup of coffee, we also add a subtle acidic flavour and help balance the coffee’s bitterness. This combination creates a unique and enjoyable taste experience that coffee lovers can find delicious.
To make an American coffee with citrus, start by making a cup of strong coffee using the method you prefer. Meanwhile, cut an orange in half and slice it into thin slices.
When the coffee is ready, serve it in the cup along with the orange slices. This will add a refreshing flavour. You can also add a teaspoon of sugar or honey if you want. The notes of orange juice will give the coffee a bright and spicy touch characteristic of American citrus coffee.
Enjoy this drink made with coffee and infused with the vibrant flavours of citrus. A delicious combination of bitter and acidic notes that will awaken your senses.
