Info
Café Pamplona, located at 12 Bow St. beside the intersection of Bow and Arrow Streets near Harvard Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, is a café. When it opened in 1959 it was the first café in the Square. The owner, Josefina Yanguas, claimed the café had the first espresso-maker in the city. Down a short flight of exterior stairs, past a patio with tables, customers enter the café's subterranean interior. The once austere decor includes bright yellow lights which make the thickly-plastered walls glow under low ceilings, and a black and white checked floor. The café survived the changes that have taken place since the mid-1980s.
