Looking for a nice quiet spot to have a coffee or tea? Then I've found the perfect little bar for you. Not far from the Belfort there is this place called ‘Peaberry coffeebar’ and it’s everything you need!
The interior is very simple, yet so relaxing. You have a wide choice of coffee or tea. Feeling like a Sunday treat? You can also eat cake here, that makes it just the perfect spot, right?
Stepping inside here is like walking into happiness, because who doesn’t feel happy after a nice cup of coffee? And if the coffee doesn’t do the job, then I’m sure the owner will! Probably the nicest barista in town.
So whenever you feel like treating yourself after a nice long walk in the city center, definitely go to Peaberry coffeebar and forget about the time while enjoying your very nice coffee and of course that piece of cake you so deserved.
