bartista

Ubbo Emmiusstraat 34, Groningen, Netherlands

Bartista is basically right between the Groninger Museum and the Central Station, on the walking route to the center. So if you're in the area, it's kind of hard to miss. It's a coffee spot where the baristas actually know what they're doing, making a bunch of different coffee types the proper way. Besides coffee, they've got tea, some snacks, and sandwiches. And if you're in a rush, they do coffee to go, which is honestly a lifesaver. The vibe is pretty straightforward: you come in, get a decent drink, and you're on your way. No fuss. They're closed on Mondays, which is a bit of a mood, but open the rest of the week from mid-morning to late afternoon. If you're coming with a group of six or more, you're supposed to hit them up through the contact form first. Otherwise, just walk in. It's a solid, no-drama spot for a proper coffee in Groningen.
