There were already so many stunning cafes in Part: I and yet
you will find in Part II that this world has many more incredibly
beautiful and interesting cafes.
Here is part II of The Most Brewtiful Cafes:
Bar Topolski (London)
Topolski gallery-bar-café-venue is a unique London space set in the railway arches near Waterloo Station, in the former studio of artist and illustrator Feliks Topolski RA (1907 – 1989).
Knoll Ridge Cafe (Mt. Ruapehu, New Zealand)
Knoll Ridge Cafe is the highest cafe in New Zealand and has incredible views over the upper slopes. Serving a wide array of meals, including a fresh salad bar, hot dishes from around the world, café style snacks and espresso coffees.
Cafe Central (Vienna, Austria)
The café was opened in 1876, and in the late 19th century it became a key meeting place of the Viennese intellectual scene. Until 1938 the café was called the “Chess school” because of the presence of many chess players. The café occupies the ground floor of the former Bank and Stockmarket Building, today called the Palais Ferstel. Palais Ferstel was renovated in 1975 and again in 1986 after closing post WW2.
Dreamy Camera Cafe (Yangpyeong, South Korea)
This incredibly unique cafe stands out on the hills of Yangpyeong as a red, rectangular building in the exact form of a Rolleiflex.
Balzac’s (Toronto, Canada)
Balzac’s Coffee Roasters micro-roasts the finest selection of Arabica beans at their roastery and serves some of Canada’s best coffee at their Ontario cafés.
Callas Cafe (Budapest, Hungary)
The Art Deco style Callas Café & Restaurant has a prime location on Andrássy Avenue right next to the Budapest Opera House. Budapest is a city of cafés. Its famed historic cafés can still evoke a reflection of the lustre of the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s past…
Cafe Majestic (Porto, Portugal)
Belle Epoque-era cafe with ornate interior featuring carved wood, mirrors & chandeliers. This gorgeous cafe is rich with luster and history. Click here for More on The Majestic
“The Majestic Café is a wonderful place, where muses, thinkers and artists can get together to live the best moments life has to offer: simply sharing communication through words and gestures,glances smiles and even a few tears sometimes.” ~ Gloria Montenegro (President of the Paris Academy of Coffeeology.)

They are all beautiful. I’ve been to 3 of these and they were all amazing! I was lucky enough to be in Austria, Hungary and London to see the end of Soviet occupation of Hungary. I actually watched the guard change in the Square. What great memories you have stirred up!

I have never been to any of the cafes you mention. I did visit Caffe Florian on the Piazza San Marco in Venice, which was built in 1711 and claims to be Europe’s first coffee house. https://offtheleashblog.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/caffe-florian.jpg

I would like to add the Tortoni Cafe, in Buenos Aires, which has been open since 1858. Me and my husband took a Historic Cafes Tour and visited aswell 36 Billares, La Biela, Grand Splendid, and Confitería La Ideal. We loved the “fileteado” artwork, the vaulted ceilings, the gloriously beat-up furniture, the waiters in bowties, the checkerboard floors. Everything made for a perfect café environment. Some of the cafés were breathing and living museums.
We fell in love with Tortoni Cafe and especially with the sculpted trio in the corner. Over the years such talented and famous people sat right there in this same chair comfortably in literary discussion over their coffee. At the end of the tour we visited the biggest book shop in Latin America which has a Cafe inside and you can take a book and read it, taking a sweet coffe, and then return the book, for free !
This book shop used to be a huge theatre, really amazing. The tour company is Kangoo Tours: http://www.kangootours.wix.com/tours . I highly recommend this tour
