Central Perks

Before any of you tell me it's Central Perk, with no s, let me tell you I'm actually writing about Central Perks, a cafe in Toledo (Spain) that recreates Friends cafe Central Perk. I don't think anyone will be surprised if I say I love the show Friends. In fact, I think it's the best TV show ever made. So when I found out there was a cafe like this in Spain, I knew I had to go! And I finally did!


I could not hide my excitement to be here, even though everyone was looking at me as if I was some kind of weirdo for taking photos of everything.




The inside is the coziest cafe I have ever been to, with sofas and armchairs, music playing and... my favorite part... episodes of Friends!




Now I know the next photo is really dark but can you see the neon on the sides? I have actually seen those in the show!



The distribution is not the same than in the cafe in the show, but I'm guessing this is where they would sit. What do you think?



The ice-cream bowls were named after couples of the show... I'm not sure how Ross would feel about that 


Joey and Phoebe though?

We ordered some oreo milkshakes and a rainbow cake and OMG look at those!




They also have a nice little terrace. And look at those tables!


And I obviously could not leave without taking a selfie there first!


But only with half of my face, because that's the only way I ever look good in photos...

Question of the Day

Are you a fan of friends too?

Antes de que nadie me diga que es Central Perk (sin s al final), no, este post es sobre Central Perks, una cafeterĂ­a en Toledo (España) que recrea la cafeterĂ­a de Central Perk de la serie Friends. No creo que nadie se sorprenda si os digo que me encanta Friends. De hecho, me parece la mejor serie que se haya hecho jamás. AsĂ­ que cuando me enterĂ© de que habĂ­a un sitio asĂ­ en España, ¡tenĂ­a que ir! ¡Y por fin fui!


Estaba super emocionada de estar allĂ­, aunque todo el mundo me mirase como una loca por hacerle fotos a todo.




Por dentro, es la cafeterĂ­a más acogedora donde haya estado nunca, con los sofás y sillones, la mĂşsica y, mi parte favorita... ¡capĂ­tulos de Friends!




Vale, sĂ© que la siguiente foto está muy oscura, pero ¿veis las luces de las pareces de los lados? ¡Esas luces salen en la serie!



La distribuciĂłn no era exactamente igual que en la serie, pero yo creo que este sofá serĂ­a donde se sientan ellos. ¿QuĂ© creeis vosotros?



Y las copas de helado llevan nombres de parejas de la serie. Aunque no sĂ© quĂ© pensarĂ­a Ross al respecto 


¿Joey y Phoebe?

Yo fui con una amiga y nos pedimos unos batidos de oreo y una tarta de arcoiris.


¡Mirad quĂ© batidos!



TambiĂ©n tienen una terracita y.... ¡las mesas!


Y, por supuesto, no podĂ­a irme sin hacerme una selfie antes.


Aunque solo de media cara, que es la Ăşnica forma de la que salgo bien en las fotos...

Pregunta del dĂ­a

¿Sois fans de Friends como yo?

Did you like this post? Why don't we keep in touch?

  10. I am a HUGE friends fan! I know pretty much every episode backwards! I probably work my way though the box set at least once a year haha! This place looks amazing, I don't think I'd be able to give up my spot on the couch though! I used to always think Joey and Pheobe would become a thing but I'm glad they didn't, though I still wish Joey had found someone in the end like everyone else did!

  11. Omg, you're so lucky! I love Friends, and I've been trying to get my partner to watch the entire series with me. It looks so amazing though I wish they still had the original sofa from the series. I'll have to visit one day, anyways! Oh, this reminded me, there was a rap battle between David Schwimmer, James Corden and Rebel Wilson. I couldn't resist laughing at the Friends references: Drop The Mic
