When searching for the best coffee in Shanghai, this little place came up, and as it was close to the apartment that I had rented out for the week, I quickly hurried over to confirm. I visited every morning after that, because this tiny coffee shop is amazing. The place itself, located in the breezy tree-lined former French Concession, is very small inside and adorably decorated. There are some books available to read, including the expensive and notoriously too-heavy-to-travel-with DK Eyewitness travel guide to Shanghai, which was perfect! The staff is very knowledgeable about coffee and ready to share information with you. Since the place is so tiny, there is extremely limited seating available. To be sure that I'd get a seat, I'd normally go right as they opened. They quickly get quite busy, and it's easy to see why. Delicious coffee, great aesthetic and location, some books, and coffee-expert baristas. Highly recommended.
