“Hidden in plain sight,” is how El Pendulo Books, Café and Music of Mexico City has been
described. A small arched entrance opens into what one visitor equated to a
Hogwarts Library. Featuring books in Spanish and English, from classic to new
releases, movies and DVDs, and live music three days a week, El Pendulo is not
a quick-stop adventure, it’s an awesome afternoon (or longer) experience –
especially since the Café fare isn’t half bad!
“The bookstore and the
coffeehouse are natural allies, neither has a time limit, slowness is
encouraged” ~ Lewis Buzbee
That bookstore looks amazing.
