Literary and artistic youth must go to Top10, the smallest cafe in Hangzhou, to feel the still charm of romance.

Maybe you've had a lot of coffee and been to a lot of cafes, but there are always a few that you've heard a lot about but haven't been to. Today, I would like to recommend 10 cafes in Hangzhou that are often heard of but difficult to find. It is recommended to collect, wait until the spare time, a product in the past!

Mortal Cafe

For more than a decade, this caf é, which can be regarded as an elder in Hangzhou, has been hiding in an alley near Wulin Square, keeping a low profile of "big looming in the city, mortal world". The boss, who knows coffee and has a little knowledge of art, makes the place "between the bar and the cafe" with its own flavor-not too noisy, not too quiet to speak, and the atmosphere happens to feel a little tipsy.

The Age of innocence Cafe

If you hang out on Beishan Road, you can see a sign to go to the "innocent Age Book Bar" by the side of the road. The age of innocence is not only a coffee bar but also a personalized book bar. Because of its geographical advantages, it can overlook the entire West Lake on the open platform. Although the field of vision is not as broad as that on the Baoshi Hill, the shadow of the branches is blocked by a bit more artistic conception of the scenery. There are many autographed books in the store, and there happens to be a celebrity exchange meeting at the weekend.

Address: No. 8 Baoli Tower Qianshan Road, Beishan Street, Hangzhou (directly below Baoda Tower)

Mingtang Blue Water Cafe

It is said that Lanshui Mingshui is next to Qian Wang Temple, but if it is not the intention to find it, there are not many people who can find it. Next door to the cafe is the famous Hangzhou Mingtang Haus International Hostel in the tourist circle, so there are many foreigners sitting in the shop. The decoration of the hall is simple and casual, coffee is made of illy beans, and the taste is mellow. Snacks such as spaghetti and pizza are also worth a try. What is particularly worth talking about is the collocation of plants outside the store, but it is also in harmony with the overall style of the restaurant.

Address: 101-3 Nanshan road, Shangcheng district, Hangzhou

Bus: Y2, 4, Y10, 12, 25, 38, 42, 102, 108, 504 Qianwang Temple intersection

Peppermint Garden Cafe

It may be that Hefang Street is so famous that even Dajing Lane nearby has been left out in the cold, which makes places like peppermint courtyard a little more quiet. When you go to the peppermint courtyard for the first time, you will think that it is just a cafe, with glass roof design, woodwork, green plants, floor-to-ceiling bookcases, various magazines, comfortable sofas and pure white tones, instantly killing the weakness of literary and artistic youth. In addition to coffee, the red wine and food in the peppermint courtyard are also good.

Bus: B Branch 3, 8, 13, 59, 66, 71, 119, 189, 195, 198 and other Gulou Station

Flying Bird Collection Cafe

The Flying Bird Collection is not only famous in the residential circles in Hangzhou, but also makes good coffee in their home, but the place is a little more difficult to find. The birds set the overall decoration of the Japanese-style breeze, there is a terrace in the courtyard, and there are tatami seats in the main entrance, and the texture of the wood is integrated with the environment of Manjuelong. This atmosphere is absolutely suitable for experiencing the life of "stealing half a day's leisure". There are a lot of interesting books on the shelf, and there are all kinds of chess. You can meditate on yourself and compete with your friends in intelligence.

Little secret cafe

Small, as warm as the living room at home; very low-key, hidden on the edge of a small lane; with connotation, decorated with a lot of antiques; "Little Secret", obviously on Baochao Road, but adheres to its own low profile. Discover the "little secret", the first feeling is small, small enough warm, enough home, the first floor of the cubicle is a glass room looking at the sky, sunny or rainy days, sitting here, will ponder.

There's a tree cafe.

Through a small alley, people who come to this place of peace and quiet are probably pursuing something in their hearts. Just like the "trees" hidden here, I always hope that in this place with trees, lakes and fallen leaves, you don't think you've gone somewhere else. In the glass room full of fallen leaves, or reading alone, reading newspapers, or playing games with friends, or chatting with the boss, or even daydreaming, the atmosphere is as casual as staying at home.

1013 Cafe

"1013" is not a hard-to-find cafe, but it is easy to ignore the location on Wen er Road. Although the store is small, it is suddenly enlightened to walk in. The overall layout is a little European and a little classical, and the books are mainly novels. The most unusual thing about "1013" is its internal plant layout, which is not like the superficial embellishment of other stores, but here the plant is more like another theme of the book bar, and it is guessed that the owner is probably a well-bred person.

Add: 156 Wen er Road, Xihu District, Hangzhou (near Youth League School)

Tel: (0571) 88003900

Bus: 10, 11, 25, 41, 74, 77, 86, 199, etc.

Shaohai Cafe

Coffee shop decoration partial Mediterranean style, European headlights, chic stone walls, there is a grand piano in the center of the hall, oil painting layout can be seen almost everywhere, such a fine environment shows the ingenuity of the boss. The word "spoon sea" is shining in the night, surrounded by neon lights layer upon layer, not flamboyant and not vulgar, but precipitate a quiet temperament. At that first sight, the romantic plot of "meeting around the corner" suddenly popped out in my heart. The tallest thing about this small cafe is that the food is ordered with ipad.
