The owner’s background in repairing electrical equipment carries into this self-roasting café’s hands-on approach to machines and extraction. It is a characterful coffee stop near Yuanshan, where the industrial details have a connection to the person making the drinks.

OUR SUGGESTED ORDER

A single-origin hand brew, then ask about the house espresso blend if you make milk drinks at home.

Before you goUse Yuanshan station as the starting point and find the Minzu West Road lane before continuing to Expo Park.
