Bonza koffie

Zomerhofstraat 71, Rotterdam, Netherlands

Bonza is a coffee bar in Rotterdam that keeps it simple: good coffee, solid lunch, and a place to just exist for a bit. They're open Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 15:30, so it's more of a daytime spot than a hang-out-until-late kind of place. The coffee is single origin, sourced from local roasters, and they care a lot about where it comes from. Direct trade, fair prices, sustainable growing. They even mention that their model gives farmers 40% to 100% more income than Fair Trade, which is a pretty strong flex. You can get your standard cappuccino or go for a V60 if you're feeling fancy. But the real draw? The tosti's. They describe them as simple but never boring, with melted cheese, crispy bread, and combos you won't forget. Plus they bake seasonal cakes in-house if you want something sweet on the side. It's the kind of place where you can come alone with your laptop, meet a friend, or just take a moment for yourself. They'll have the coffee ready either way.
