Small hipster spot with good coffee and tasty cookies . Glad to find places like this in Shanghai.

Jennifer Bin

Try their passionfruit cold brew if available. Very very delicious. I also recommend the flat white . I've been coming to this spot every week for almost 3 years. Cafe del Volcan remains my favourite.

Micheál Ó Bolguidhir

Went in to hide out from the rain, and found a minimalist cafe with a really relaxed atmosphere , great coffee and nice owners. Bring a book on a rainy day, it's the perfect place for it.

Jason

Great coffee shops not only make fantastic drinks but also popularize the culture, especially when in China… They have free weekly mini coffee events every Thu that can be found via WeChat or website.

Angela Liu

This small cafe is tucked on a street with a number of bars but it is not to he overlooked. They serve a range of coffee from different origins and the baristas are very well trained !

Michael

Real espresso in Shanghai! Gibraltars, flat whites , cappuccinos , and even cold brew . All beans have the roasting date on the menu.

leon师傅

They moved down the street to a slightly bigger location with more seating. Same consistently great coffee , and they have a WeChat mini-app now too.

Dedrick Kline

Small and easy to overlook but amazing! Hand-dripped coffees were great, the affogato was perfect, and the warm chocolate-chip and cranberry cookie was to die for!

Time Out Shanghai

Providing a wide selection of varieties ranging from Yunnan to Ethiopia, this soothing venue is the ultimate destination for coffee enthusiasts. Always-irresistible Strictly Cookies are just 10RMB. Read more

Can't count how many coffee shops I walked by till I come here! Even had a mediocre cappuccino break to collect energy ???? But worth all the effort ???????? Ps: Barista just told me they'll open new ones!

Bethany Chan

Delicious flat white and professional baristas ????????????????

Chris Liew

Yes it's indeed one of the best third wave cafés in shanghai. The taste, the crema and even the cup and the small space remind me of how we do coffee in Melbourne. Highly recommended!

Noah Weiss

Best coffee (espresso , capuccino , etc.) In a coffee forsaken city . Roasts its own beans imported exclusively from a plantation in Guatemala.

Tom

maybe the best cappuccino in China. Definitely one of my favorite cafes . Friendly staff and cool interior, selling great blends.

Allie Quinn

Great selection of coffees from all over the world, French press or drip style. Almost no seating though, be prepared to get take out .

Alena Woo

Pour over coffee is really good. Nice little space for working on a very trendy street. The complimentary cookie that comes with each coffee was also really delicious :)

Nick K

Such a delicious coffee in SH!!! Best best best!!! But expensive , really expensive . Cafe is small so place to sit there is not always available.

John Booth

Small cafe , perfectly formed coffee . Some of the best coffee in shanghai, they have espresso based drinks and a good range of single origin coffee to choose from.

Fin Sedgwick

Espresso , coffee , and cookies or cakes are all great here. One of Shanghai's best little coffee bars - check it out

Paul Farrell

One of the best coffees in Shanghai. Worth going out of your way for. Really passionate about their coffee .

Frank

Lucianne L

Awesome coffee house ! Latte taste great so was the. Cookie .

Andreas Schreiber

Nice little cafe . Good place to work with your laptop if you get one of the few seats.

Jill Ge

Hands down the best coffee in Shanghai. And they accept alipay.

Harika Bilici

Now we are talking. This is a good flat white ! Sit outside and watch life happen around you. Great little place.

Harika Bilici

Wifi password: ilovecoffee . Edits to reviews: Flat white-still awesome, cookies - not as crumbly and fresh. Hard to find a seat in the tiny shop and outside it smells a bit like sewage or exhaust ????

Jem Maher

Coffee is GREAT and the cookies are delicious. We live outside of Shanghai and Cafe Volcan is worth the trip in

Go Find Alice

Amazing coffee and what a cute space!

Douglon Tse

Simple place with good coffee on a street that needs more of what Cafe del Volcan is doing.

Nils

Check out the roast machine in the back of the coffee shop and ask Diana to explain how it works. It's fascinating.

Sabrina Scott

Definitely the best coffee in Shanghai! You should also get the Cookie del Volcán - you will not regret it!

Gie_Chloe E

Very very small cafe . Be prepared to wait for an available table. Servers speak good English so no miscommunication at all. Above it all, BEST COFFEE IN SHANGHAI!

Jen Huang

Great coffee ! Checking in on foursquare for the first time gets you a free cookie !

Matjaz Muhic

Hands down the best coffee in Shanghai! One of the best espressos I've ever had. :)

Bastiaan Terhorst

The best coffee I've had in Shanghai. Do note: the foursquare map indication is wrong; look the address up on Baidu maps.

Scott

A little on the pricey side but when you sample one of their extensive range of coffees you'll soon understand why.

Mark Vitazko

Super nice barista, great cappuccino . Say hi to Ricky!

leon师傅

The café con miel knocks my socks off every time.

Hailei Wang

The coffee is of the best taste, better than Nespresso.

Matjaz Muhic

Cookie is a must try also.

Rachel Roth

Tiny cafe with great lattes

Simon Head

Small, but cozy . High quality coffee and equipment ????

David Ellis

They know their coffee .. you can also buy beans directly from them.

Nathan

Get the flat white (double shot) and try to find a seat.

Conrad Greiner-Bechert

Hot chocolate only because the cookie didn’t last long enough to be captured in a photo.

Janet Cheung

He's really nice and makes so really nice latte art work

Nils

Try the Flat White - an Australian specialty somewhere between a cappuccino and a caffe latte !

Sarah C

Cutest coffee shop ! Wish I lived in SH so I could come here often!

john lewis

Good. I particularly love how they ripped off the bag design of stump town . But, good coffee .

Juan Pablo

If you check in the first time here, you get a nice cookie on the house :)
