We all look for different things when deciding what qualifies as a great café. Many people base their judgement on how good their coffee is, what the food tastes like and the café's decor. For me, a great café is one that is a little different, that has warm atmosphere, decent food and a bit of personality. Naturally, a good view does not go un-noticed.

Cafes are a place to meet with friends, solve a few problems, have lots of laughs and perhaps even do some work. They are ideal if you want to remove yourself from the daily routine…
These cafes are some of the best ones that I have visited:
