Schot Koffie, nestled in the beautiful Diepeveen building, is a gem for coffee enthusiasts in Rotterdam. As dedicated coffee roasters, they serve up some of the best brews in the city. Their offerings extend beyond just coffee; the miso brownie is a delightful treat, and the toastie kimchi is a must-try for a unique twist on a classic.
While chilly in the winter, the spacious interior is full of charm. The standout feature is the bar decked with beautiful tiles. It's a perfect spot to enjoy your coffee while soaking in the atmosphere.
Schot Koffie often hosts weekend markets where local artists showcase and sell their creations, adding to the vibrant community feel. Additionally, they offer barista training sessions for those looking to perfect their coffee-making skills.
One of Schot Koffie's unique aspects is its connection to the Huidenclub. After enjoying a cup of coffee, you can seamlessly walk into the exhibitions and explore the local art scene.
