The special cafe is only open on weekends

✨"Wondering why such a beautiful shop was only open on weekends. After meeting the owner, I boldly asked him why, and he told me that he opened this cafe shop for his mother. Because he works far away, he is only free on weekends, he only opens on Saturdays and Sundays so that he can help his mother.

Delicious "Tears" of coffee, at McCafé

✨"We directed our steps towards the McCafé café, which has always attracted us with its aroma and cosy atmosphere.
Upon entering, we were greeted by the soft sound of background music and the enticing aroma of coffee. " @taniagonzalez

Coffee at the Museum of Making

✨"Just above the entrance to the café is a Toyota Corolla car that looks as though it has exploded in the air. You can just see it in the background. It would cause you a major headache if it fell on your head while drinking your coffee! 😁😳" @ellenripley

Breakfast in the cafeteria with the family is a nice experience

✨"They had a gleaming espresso machine, I loved it. The barista made my husband and me a delicious coffee which he delivered to our table with a heart in the cream.
The pastries were delicious, which even my daughter with her eating habits devoured in minutes." @chacald.dcymt

Drinking Coffee With A Mountain View

✨"I love to share a beautiful spot to drink coffee with you guys. So, this time I share with you Kalang Ulu Cafe, located in a rooftop hotel building. We can see the natural atmosphere. The design, the furniture inside using minimalist wooden style." @anggreklestari

ENJOYING AS ALWAYS A DELICIOUS COFFEE!

✨"Before ordering anything I asked her: why that name COFFE & BAR? And she smiled and answered me: “My lady because this place is a bar at night, where there is music and alcoholic beverages and during the day we work as a cafeteria, where we offer the best coffee in the area, plus a variety of sweets and Creole breakfasts”. @tibilopez

First time Visiting Marinas Coffee

✨"I ordered a large Moka because you should never miss the opportunity to enjoy a Moka at such a good price. And speaking of the coffee as such, I loved the taste, besides the fact that the size was quite large. It felt like a cappuccino with a touch of Toddy, which is not a very strong chocolate, so I loved the taste. I deduced it was Toddy because of the powder it had on top, it was just that, I knew the taste a mile away, as I drink it a lot." @lucianav

Kurvada Cafe ☕

✨"This cafe is called Kurvada Cafe. I don't know where this name came from, but this place is so beautiful. This cafe is located at Brgy. Kumasikis, Don Salvador Benedicto, Negros Occidental, Philippines. This cafe is easy to spot because it's just on the side of the road. Many people always come here, especially on weekends, because our place is known for its cool climate. There are many tourist spots, cafes, restaurants, waterfalls, and many others." @khay.yryn

A new friend, a new coffee shop

✨"Now I have a new coffee friend, if my friend Ludwig was enough you can imagine the combination of these two beings together in a coffee shop. When we arrived it was full so while we ordered we waited for a table to be vacated. There were only two-seater tables, so Lud was standing for a while, then a large group left and we went to taste that coffee. @amatorrs

Special coffee drink with whipped cream

✨"The first thing to do was to make the coffee traditionally, this time we made a thermos a little full just in case and also so that it would be ready for the night, once that was ready we prepared some coffee with milk and you can see that it was a little pure, but that was the idea so that it would have more black coffee flavour, however, I tell you that it has to be a little cold so that it is easier to colour the cream.
