COFFEE HEAVEN
Coffee lovers! Nice coffee museum located in Gangneung. It’s not far from the beach maybe a 15 minute walk from the beach. It’s a cafe/museum/class in one place. I went there to look at the museum and have a cup of coffee. The only place I’ve found to offer “hard to find” beans in Korea such as Kona Hawaii and Blue Mountain. There is also a shop and you can buy coffee trees. If you don’t go to the museum having a cup of coffee is worth the trip just to sit in the cafe. #gangneung #beach #coffee #Coffeemuseum #coffeelover #coffeetourism #coffeetrip #coffeefan
Share a gelato with a fluffy polar bear
In Shanghai Centre, there’s a particular spot that projects cuteness. Stephanie’s gelato 🍧 and coffee spot is perfect for a hot summer day. And you get to sit down and share your ice cream with a huge stuffed polar bear 🐻❄️.
There are two stations, both connected by a door. Here you can chose the type of ice cream 🍨 🍦, gelato 🍧or popsicle you want, and toppings. All of them looking quite delicious.
Just try to eat it fast, these summer days are melting everything very fast, and being outdoors doesn’t help. Nevertheless, this spot is quite calm, so you can enjoy your sweet delight and take your time enjoying the beauty of each day.
📍 Shanghai Centre, No.1376, Nanjing West Road Floor 1 (Nearby Xikang Road), Jing'an

Baguettes & donuts in a busy day
Baker & Spice is a bakery and coffee shop franchise I Shanghai. This particular one is Shanghai Centre branch. Ambience is nice and relaxing, perfect for remote working. If not, just come to read a book by yourself, enjoying your afternoon coffee in the terrace.
This bakery has many bread and pastry options, also full meal dishes like pasta and noodles. Many different sweet and spicy bread to chose from. Cakes are cute but seemed too sweet for my taste. I did bought a baguette 🥖 to go, always perfect with cheese cream.
My raspberry filled donut was delicious. Too much sugar in the outside, sticking everywhere (which I clearly didn’t like it), but the sour filling made me ignore this detail and enjoy my afternoon delight. Coffee was ok, another blend like many others in Shanghai.

Songjiang quest: Iced drinks in summer
Songjiang district is a bit so know and yet such beautiful district in Shanghai. Local government has invested a lot in city embellishments and this area is not the exception. This area is supposed to be the historical origin of Shanghai, land of rice and fish (and you definitely can find many seafood 🦞 restaurants here).
This summer ☀️ mornings have proven to be hotter than any other day of the year. My visit to Coffee & Milk after a bike ride was extremely refreshing (although they could hurry a bit more in preparing the drink 🥤 before I passed out of insolation). Staff doesn’t speak English at all.
This drinks-only shop offers a variety of coffee drinks, milk teas and bubble teas, hot or cold. Coffee & Milk is located besides the Fuyue Hotel, in same building complex area so it’s easy to spot from the distance (but hard to find in maps). Drinks are quite nice, my option went for a passion fruit lemonade drink that made wonders with my thirst.
📍 Rongyue Road 208 Long, Songjiang

Craving for donuts? Come to DD!
There are few Dunkin Donuts restaurants in Shanghai, my favorite is DD branch in Wujiaochang (Pacific Forest City). It’s a small store and barely have couple of chairs to sit down, but it’s my ‘must go’ every time I’m in the area.
They have an offer of 6 donuts (your choice) per 56RMB. Mostly, I just take my favorite (blueberry filled) donut to go, with a coffee to sit down in whatever place I feel like. It’s about posibilities, and exploring a huge city like Shanghai.
All Dunkin’s donuts are delicious. Normally, they add seasonal specialties. For spring, a strawberry 🍓 donut, and for summer a banana 🍌 peach 🍑 donut. Some of them are a bit too sweet for my taste, but the strawberry sourness or the banana filled with cream star ⭐️ are worthy for those days of sugar craving. Chocolate 🍫 ones are too sweet for me, but also recommended by many.
On the other hand, coffee is quite regular. General blend you can find anywhere in Shanghai. However, some of the ice drinks are quite nice. Try the coconut 🥥 options, always refreshing for summer days.
📍 Songhu Road No.199 B1 Pacific Forest City No. B-12-2, Yangpu

From Colombia & Kenya to you
Shanghai is the city with more coffee shops in the world. Among those shops, Starbucks franchise is the one that wins. Almost in every corner, in every mall, there is a Starbucks. However, once I arrived to China I realized some of these shops are quite special. Some are vintage, some crowded, but only few of them a nice place to work in.
Starbucks in Nanyangjing Rd is one of these few places were, despite the fact is extremely crowded at any time, remains quiet and it’s one of the favorite places for many people to come and work (pic 3).
Also, their cakes 🍰 offer varies a little from other sites I had seen. Summer offers includes lots of coconut and mango flavored cakes 🧁. Also, pineapple, peach and grape seasonal drinks to refresh your day.

A coffee shop full of polar bears
Polar Cafe is a cute coffee in FOR mall, located in Yanggao Middle Road. Polar Café is a small franchise, and there are a few shops in Shanghai, but couldn’t find much information in the website they include their decoration.
This tiny coffee shop is literally full of polar bears: in the chairs, decorations and even in your coffee cup!! If you like bears 🐻, specially polar bears 🐻❄️, this is the place for you!! Super cute! As I walked by I got attracted by all the cute bears 🐻❄️ and had to come back and check it.
Desserts are super cute, including bear 🐻 shaped cakes 🍰. This ambience make me feel in Christmas and winter, despite the current heat. Best time to come is during the night, even if shop is inside the mall and it’s a bit dark, night will let all the ceiling lights to be more appreciated.
There are many fruity juices options, for those not fans of coffee. But be honest, who doesn’t want to have a coffee cup with a polar bear 🐻❄️ made of foam? (although some make look a bit ugly 😂, depending the skill of bartender).
📍 No.2108, Yanggao Middle Road Block B 102, Pudong

Largest Starbucks in the World ☕️ 🌏
The popularity of Starbucks in China is insane! They’re literally everywhere and packed most times! Did you know that the largest Starbucks in the world is located in Shanghai!? 🤩
It is known as The Starbucks Reserve Roastery. The place feels like an amusement park with a lot of things to grab your attention. There are three coffee bars, a Teavana tea bar, coffee roasting process on display and gift items on sale! They also offer a variety of pastries and dishes. If you feel like eating lunch and sipping your usual afternoon coffee in a cool atmosphere, this is the place to go 😉 Keep in mind that things there are quite pricey. There are stools upstairs if you want to spend time watching the coffee roasting process with the board at the top indicating the origin of the coffee beans and the type of blend. The whole set up feels like being in a coffee lab, which is quite impressive and pleasing 😊
How to go ➡️ We took the metro 🚇 to West Nanjing Road Station (南京西路地铁站) and walked for about 5-7 mins.
