There are those who, as soon as the warm weather arrives, rush to the terrace to savor Italian, street food, African, French or Japanese specialties. And then there are those who, as soon as the sun comes out and the days get longer, have only one thing on their minds: a good cup of coffee, with or without a sweet or savory treat, with their head in the sun.
Let's face it, there are few things as comforting as a cup of coffee, accompanied by a book, on the terrace of a coffee shop. And if, on top of that, you allow yourself a healthy and tasty pastry or sandwich, then you're truly in paradise.

Whether you prefer a Japanese atmosphere, a studious literary ambience or a colorful pop décor, you're sure to find what you're looking for - and good coffee too. Here's where to find them!
