STEPS coffee

This is a very special store, especially not only the decoration, items, but also its unique atmosphere.

We all know that Dazhi has become a high-end residential area, and practical University also has a campus here.

Naturally, Dazhi, there are also coffee shops gathering.

However, STEPS coffee seems to be afraid of being discovered, but he keeps a low profile near the MRT station, not only the number of people stepping on the Internet is small.

You may even pass by. You must have missed it.

The style in the store is not lower than the appearance, the texture is very good, the space is not small, and the atmosphere is very cold.

It is even colder than the ordinary industrial style coffee shop, the black floor is black, the bar is black, the lights are on spotlight, and the whole shop is dark.

Even the machines are equipped with metal-based la marzocco linea.

Its own cool metal style, coupled with a dark space and a low-key appearance.

It will make people think about how depressed the host's character is, so that they will take this tone as the main axis.

Think of Chuck Snyder, the director who directed 300 strong Men, Superman and other films.

Each of its movies has a dominant tone (three hundred is yellow, Superman VS Batman is black)

Then the main tone of STEPS coffee is black, right?

But I know the coffee maker can't be so dark, so I wonder where the contrast is.

In addition to the curiosity of the main tone, another surprising point is definitely this.

This shop has no table, a small coffee table but no table. It seems too reluctant to be a small chair.

This shop is not small, it should be enough to set up a few tables, but there are only wall chairs and small coffee tables in the whole store.

This means that this is a coffee shop, not a good place to sit down, date, read on a computer.

Menu MENU

What is sold in the store is pure coffee, black coffee and white coffee, the price is a little high, but all within the normal range.

The bean bag with Goethe font is from Four Barrel Coffee, a famous store in San Francisco, USA.

It turns out that this shop is made of beans from the United States, and Taipei's coffee culture is really becoming more and more international.

The fragrance is full, the flower fragrance is tonal, the acidity is also good, the high temperature tastes thinner, and the end taste is a little empty.

As the temperature decreases, the taste and the firmness of the taste will come out.

Black coffee (hot)-130NT

This should be the ordinary hot American style.

The aroma is enough, with a full bergamot flavor, the taste is also very full-bodied, the taste is very like tea, a very good cup

White coffee for milk, small, about six to eight ounces, standard tulip cup

Tulip cups taste good to drink coffee, but for this cup of milk, I think it tastes good

The aroma is just as good, a bit like milk tea, but the sweetness and sour aroma are not obvious, so it becomes the taste I don't like.

I think this cold cup of white coffee tastes much better than the hot one. Without the hot tea feeling, it turns to chocolate nut flavor.

Maybe the hot taste of the cup just now is no longer in my taste memory, so I will slightly reject that taste.

The ice cup makes people feel familiar and drink it on a hot day. It relieves the heat.

The space has a good texture and tastes good.

It is different from the atmosphere of the ordinary coffee shop, which makes me not come all the way here when I want to have a cup of coffee.

This shop does not sell boutique coffee, but sells boutiques, watches and Swarovski.

Postscript:

During the first visit, although there was a sign, it was still filmed for too long, and I was a little embarrassed.

After all, I'm the only one in the whole store, and it's a little awkward to shoot it for a long time.
