Whenever we're hunting for hidden treasures at El Rastro, we always stop in at Olofane to check out the beautiful handmade lampshades. They have a great collections of antiques as well. 

Casa Josephine is an interior design and architecture studio a stone's throw away from El Rastro. They have beautiful unique pieces that would look great in just about any home. 

Though it's in the middle of quite a busy area, Ruda Café is chiller than chill. This cute, tiny coffee spot has great espresso-based drinks and tasty pastries.

You can find just about anything you don't actually need in El Rastro, so come early in the morning to scoop up all your goodies. We love coming here on a Saturday morning (which is dangerously close to noon in Spain) before heading for lunch.
