Curator’s note

Casa Libre opened on September 24, 2026, from the team behind Freelance Coffee Project. Its coffee comes from next door, in Mexico.

The Coffee

Every coffee is roasted in-house, with Mezcla Jaguar, a washed blend from Chiapas and Veracruz, as the house coffee, and the syrups are made from scratch. The bar pours espresso drinks, café helado and matcha.

The Vibe

Casa Libre is a freestanding casita on the market floor, a few steps from the produce, with two tall glazed arches framed in burgundy and the glass door set in the front one. CASA LIBRE arcs over the entrance with a gold jaguar between the words, and MI CASA ES TU CASA runs along the side wall above a timber bench.
