Traço Torra & Café

Nathalia Nogueira opened Traco in Botafogo in February 2025, roasting specialty beans on site with lots bought directly from producers, drawing on café culture she picked up while living in Berlin and brought back to shape the room's curation and technique. The two floor space seats around thirty two people and opens onto a terrace shaded by a mango tree.

Beans can be taken home whole or ground fresh to order, and the terrace tables have already become a spot where laptop workers settle in and share space with anyone just passing through for a cup.
