El Viejo Buzón

A bakery for the best part of a century before it became a bar and restaurant in 1987, in Caballito rather than on any tourist circuit. The walls carry football memorabilia and the crowd is drawn from supporters and players of Ferro Carril Oeste, with folk music overhead. The name, The Old Postbox, comes from the British pillar box on the corner.
