Cafe Central Yerevan
For some good coffee
The interior of this cafe is so warm, one should particularly come here on a gloomy day. Inside you will forget it is gloomy outdoors. But more than that, the first thing that hits your nose is the smell of coffee. There is some very good oriental type of coffee here (from 500 AMD). This is what I drink here and can therefore suggest trying it. Other than that they have great cakes, so especially for sweet-tooths, this might be heaven.
The main minus is that this place can be smoky, since despite the division of smoking and non-smoking areas, the smoke penetrates all halls. Yet the place is quite big and it doesn't get smoky too fast. Worth coming here at least once. Good space for official and non-official meetings. Be aware that it may be noisy depending on the time of day (with most noisy at the end of the day :).
