botequim bate-papo, or the 'chat bar' in English, can be found in the leblon district, well-known for great food as well as for the friendly atmosphere and bohemian vibe.

the bar is decked out with sturdy iron tables and benches but the balcony often proves to be the most popular spot, especially during warm evenings - live music occur from thursday's to sunday's with acts ranging from traditional samba to folk and pop.

people venture from far and wide for the bar's famous coffee but the alcoholic drinks become popular as the evening wares on - beers, wines, and cocktails are available, all of which perfectly complement the delicious food cooked in the open plan kitchen so revelers can watched the chefs at work.
