Frequently asked

What is the best cafe in Centro?

Snowday Korean Dessert Shop is the top-ranked cafe we track in Centro: 4.9 stars from 136 reviews.

How many cafes and bakeries are in Centro?

We track 37 in Centro. This list shows the top 19 (at least 10 reviews and 4.0 stars).

How are they ranked?

By rating and review count together (a Bayesian average), never by who pays us. Data comes from Google Maps and is refreshed regularly.

How we rank

Google Maps rating and review count combined in a Bayesian average, so a 5.0 from 3 reviews does not beat a 4.8 from 800. Chains and tour agencies are left out of food lists. No placement is for sale: affiliate links, where they exist, are labelled and never change the order.
