Garros Galería is a small, single-minded gallery-boutique in Roma Norte dedicated entirely to cats: art, crafts, accessories, an alternative bookshop, and vegan artisanal ice cream in seasonal flavors. The owner, Joel, runs it hands-on, and three resident cats - Fideo, Eugenio, and Tom - function as actual hosts. Everything moves to the same rhythm, which is the place's real charm. The ice cream is genuinely good, and the rotating inventory pulls repeat visits. The honest catch: the art curation is uneven, and the eating space is cramped. It's not for everyone, but if you're the type who walks in and gets it, you'll leave with something in hand.
