There is no shortage of coffee shops in Shanghai. The number has been growing rapidly in the past two years, and competition is becoming increasingly fierce. In this industry, choosing a better cup of coffee has become the demand of more people, which is also the original intention of our "Shanghai Coffee Map". This special edition is also intended to meet everyone's needs more simply and quickly.

If you are in Shanghai, you can just pick a good one nearby, or go to other restaurants on a weekend; if you are not in Shanghai, you can just follow this list when you visit Shanghai, saving you time and effort. These 12 coffee shops can be said to be our editorial department's private collection, the kind that we often go to after work, and we guarantee that we will not make mistakes. Welcome to collect them.

A small restaurant in the community - Moon Cafe

Address: 9-b, Lane 275, Anfu Road

Opening hours: 11:00-19:00

Recommended drinks: Hand-poured single product, Little Moon

Moon Coffee is the first coffee shop we photographed, and it has been a year since its opening. Because it is a residential area, it has a great little courtyard. In this season when the weather is already a bit hot, it would be a good choice in the evening or on rainy days. It recommends hand-brewed coffee. The beans are roasted by the owner Xiaofeng himself , and the flavor and product are quite stable. Of course, if you don't drink hand-brewed coffee often, Little Moon (ice latte) would be a better choice.

Dark roast from Japan - Rumaz

Address: No. 1, Lane 372, Xingguo Road

Opening hours: 11:00-22:00

Recommended drinks: Hand-poured drinks

Rumaz now has 3 stores, located on Hunan Road, Xingguo Road, and Yongfu Road. The first store on Hunan Road is now in its 7th year, which is considered a long-standing store in Shanghai. The difference between the Xingguo Road store and the other is that, in addition to its larger area, Mr. Sun Yat-sen also roasts coffee beans in a small attic on the second floor . Therefore, you can not only smell the brewed coffee, but also the unique aroma of the raw coffee beans during the roasting process.

Coffee beans from Africa - On The Go

Address: 104, No. 276, Urumqi Middle Road

Opening hours: 07:30-19:00

Recommended drinks: Hand-poured drinks

On The Go is located on Wulumuqi Middle Road, near Wuyuan Road. Because it is surrounded by small shops of similar size, you have to be extra careful when passing by to avoid missing it. The owner, Yohana, is a roaster who was born in Ethiopia. Although he later immigrated, the brand of coffee has always followed his family, so he started to play with coffee at a very young age. I would especially like to recommend the Tanzanian beans in their store, which are a single-origin bean that is difficult to drink in Shanghai .

Takeaway on weekdays - Lan Jing Coffee

Address: No. 227-1, Nanyang Road

Opening hours: 07:30-21:00

Recommended drink: Latte

Ever since I went to Nanyang Road, I have been particularly envious of people whose offices are near there. For example, Lan Jing Coffee, a small cup of latte is 15 yuan, and you can get 5 yuan off if you bring a cup . The key is that it tastes quite smooth and the price-performance ratio is too good. The space is small and is often crowded in the morning and afternoon. Even so, the barista will still try to remember everyone's taste and constantly adjust through communication.

Estate-grade coffee beans - Hu Zha Zao coffee

Address: No. 6 Yuyuan East Road (near Tongren Road)

Opening hours: 07:30-19:00 on weekdays and 10:00-18:00 on weekends

Recommended drink: Latte

The owner, Ajian, is Taiwanese. He has been making coffee in Taipei for 9 years. He opened a coffee shop here because he likes Shanghai. The beans are of very good quality, and all of them are estate-grade coffee beans . The signature is Taiwanese brown sugar latte, but I personally think that the latte without brown sugar is also delicious.

Saving the severely addicted - Café del Volcán

Address: No. 80 Yongkang Road

Business hours: 08:00-20:00 on weekdays , 10:00-20:00 on weekends

Recommended drinks: Flat white, pour-over

Café del Volcán is the first coffee shop on Yongkang Road. In 2012, independent coffee shops were still rare in Shanghai, and many people came here to drink coffee. The shop has a variety of evergreen beans from the century-old coffee estate in Guatemala - Faldas del Volcán (meaning "volcano's skirt slope"), which is where the name of the shop comes from. Don't miss this Guatemalan bean when you go to their shop. One of the partners, Lindsay, is an American, so this shop has both professional rigor and a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.

American retro fashion store—— Beautiful Concept

Address: No. 25 Yongkang Road

Opening hours: 08:00-20:00

Recommended drinks: Latte, hand-poured single products

The owner yy named their first SOE " Be Child Original Heart " - "I hope our customers can feel the taste of not forgetting the original intention and insisting on doing what they want to do." Now "Be Child" is sold out, and it is connected with another Italian blended bean - " Light House Lighthouse ", hoping to reproduce the taste of the first cup of coffee in BC when the store opened five years ago. Everything in BC can feel the persistence of the young owner yy. This is a beautiful thing he created for himself, and it may also happen to be yours.

Coffee beans from multiple roasting brands - tolerance is the key

Address: No. 99 Taixing Road, Zhangyuan 99, right side of the main gate (near Nanjing West Road)

Opening hours: 08:00-17:00

Recommended drinks: Hand-poured drinks

The owner is one of the partners of Mingqian Coffee, but 95% of the beans in this store come from different roasting brands in various countries and regions , in order to provide coffee lovers with beans of various flavors and tones and the information and stories behind them. The store is very small and usually focuses on takeout.

Narrow Gate , a small corner shop in People's Square

Address: No. 85 Shandong Middle Road

Opening hours: 07:30-20:00

Recommended drinks: Pour-over drinks, latte

On Shandong Middle Road, which is full of snacks and milk tea shops, NARROW GATE is a bit out of place . Whether it is decoration or style, it is a bit out of place. But that is just the appearance. As long as you stay there for a while, you will find that there are uncles living nearby, office workers in nearby office buildings, and foreigners who come to Shanghai for tourism... It seems that it doesn't look so strange, everything is as it should be. Moreover, a cup of good quality hand-brewed coffee is only 16 yuan, which is really nothing to complain about.

Essential caffeine for workdays - Kaffeine Coffee (Madang Road Store)

Address: No. 317 Madang Road

Opening hours: 08:30-20:00

Recommended drinks: Latte, Americano

This store on Madang Road is the second store of Kaffeine Coffee. Opposite the store is the modern SOHO Plaza, but this side is an old and dilapidated small storefront, with residents often hanging clothes at the door. Among these messy small stores, the fresh and clean Kaffeine Coffee stands out. This store specializes in Italian coffee, but the thoughtful owner uses two types of Italian beans, the sour one is used for American coffee, and the other is used for milk coffee with a mellower taste.

A wide variety of single-origin beans —— M2F

Address: No. 165 Xinhua Road

Opening hours: 08:00-21:30

Recommended drinks: Hand-poured drinks

One of the founders, Jiang Jie, is Taiwanese. She worked in Shanghai for more than 20 years. After retirement, she went to her cousin's shop in Taiwan to learn about coffee and later opened this shop. There is a roasting machine at the entrance of the shop, and fresh coffee beans are roasted every day. The shop is small, but the variety of single-origin beans and coffee making methods are very rich, including common hand-brewed and ice-dripped coffee, as well as less common siphon coffee . It can be said that you can always pick out a bean and brewing method you like here.

A pure white Japanese-style restaurant - Onirii Coffee

Address: No. 240 Nanchang Road

Opening hours: 10:00-19:00

Recommended drinks: Pour-over single product, flat white

When Wing was in college, he worked part-time as a coffee maker while attending school. He was a barista at the Moon. After graduating last summer, he has been planning his own coffee shop. This Onirii (the Greek word for the god of dreams) opened in October last year. Because of its simple style of pure white and brown, it quickly became popular on WeChat Moments. It is not objective to say that it is just an Internet celebrity. From the decoration to the small items to the selection and taste of the coffee beans, Wing has put a lot of effort into it. I suggest that everyone must try the hand-brewed single product to enjoy the flavor of the coffee itself.
