Taiwan's coffee culture is deeply influenced by Japan due to historical reasons. now, ground coffee has become very common, and fine coffee and hand-brewed coffee have gradually become the mainstream of fashion.

There were only a handful of cafes in Taiwan in the 1930 and 1940s, but several well-known cafes, such as Polly Road, Shanshui Pavilion, and Tianma teahouse, were indeed an important stage in the painting, literary and theatrical circles at that time.

From the 1950s to the 1960s, the Star Cafe was famous for its literati cafes. At that time, people like Bai Xianyong and Wang Wenxing, who founded "Modern Literature", often gathered here; Huang Chunming and Chen Yingzhen often haunted the Star Cafe; and the late poet Zhou Mengdee sold books on the first floor of the star.

Cafes in these years show the characteristics of many public fields, and they have also become a good place for many media journalists to collect information or conduct exclusive interviews. Some people describe it as just as Camus's existentialism was brewing in the cafes on the left bank of Paris, the Taiwanese cafes in the above-mentioned era surged with a lot of ideological revolutionary trends.

In the 1960s and 1970s, professional European-style cafes began to appear in Taiwan, such as Shangdao Coffee, Old Tree Coffee and Bee Coffee.

The Old Tree Cafe is decorated with classic Louis XVI-style wooden tables and chairs, wooden ornaments, elegant chandeliers, and boasts siphon brewing coffee. When these European-style cafes first sprang up, they became a fashionable choice for middle-class dates and parties.

Along the way from literati cafes and professional cafes, Taiwan's coffee culture, after decades of development, has transformed from a minority elite culture to a common culture of the general public, and has many unique global characteristics.
