From Bombay to the Barcelona coffee library is a particularly meaningful cafe. This place not only serves coffee and delicious food, but it is also a library, a place where many works of art are displayed, and every employee here was once a street child. The cafe provides jobs as well as accommodation for many children from the Snehasadan orphanage.

The cafe was created by Amin, who was a kid living on the streets of Mumbai since the age of 5, Amin had to go through a rough time trying to survive in the city. Fortunately, his life on the street came to an end when an orphanage adopted him and ended up working as a chauffeur for a wealthy owner who sent him off to Barcelona. Amin began to dream and write a book about his life, profits from the sale of books he used to open a cafe supporting street children. A cafe with a library, where street children and workers alike can find a safe haven and a place they can call home. .

Bobon coffee is the special drink here, a strange combination of chocolate and coffee in a small cup. What sets Cafe Bonbon apart is that the first sip you will say “wow”, the second you will say “I love it”, and the third sip if you really like it will ask for another cup.

Some of the delicious dishes at the bar include Tapas, grilled mushrooms from the Tapas Spanish menu, Chicken fingers with a perfect and tender crust served with a spicy mayo that tastes fresh, Poha Bhajiyas served with chili sauce hara fresh coriander, or you can try the vegetarian dish Butter Mushroom,…

This is the place to display the artworks of the children at the Snehasadan orphanage. They display their work in the cafe it can be t-shirts, bags, dresses, paintings or whatever it is. Visitors to the shop can buy the works as support for the children in Snehasadan.
