Coffee Garden

Bergselaan 291A, Rotterdam, Netherlands

Coffee Garden is a specialty coffee and tea shop on the Bergselaan in Rotterdam Noord. It's the kind of place where you can actually take your time: taste, smell, ask questions, and figure out what you like. No rush, no fuss, just really good coffee. They roast 13 house coffees themselves, from Ethiopian naturals to Colombian washed lots, all at one fixed price per 500g bag. On top of that: over 30 tea varieties, ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, and house-blended masala chai. Everything is open to try in the shop, and if you're unsure, they'll pour you a cup and figure it out together. There's also a local corner with stuff you won't find elsewhere: stroopwafels, speculaas, cocosbollen from Madame Cocos, even Delfts Blauw if you need a gift. And you can sit down between the plants for an iced matcha, a fresh panini, or a yogurt bowl. No reservation needed, just show up. It's open daily, and after closing hours you can still visit on appointment. Honestly, tasting beats reading, so jus…
