Barcelona is one of Europe's best cities for specialty coffee and has a huge variety of excellent coffee shops, cafes and roasters. In this guide, I'm sharing my favourite coffee spots from my recent long-weekend trip — plus one from a previous visit and even a bonus coffee cocktail experience!
I've been visiting Cannes for over two decades and until recently, there was little in the way of specialty coffee in the French Riviera city — unless you count the pourovers I brewed at my parents' place! Over the past few years, that's started to change and in this guide, I'm rounding up some of my favourite specialty coffee shops in Cannes.
Antibes is a city of contrasts, where luxury yachts moor alongside the centuries-old ramparts of the historic Old Town. Smaller than Nice and less showy than Cannes, Antibes makes a great day trip from both. Here's my guide to making the most of that day, with lots of ideas for things to do and places to eat, drink and shop.
Soon after I got back from holiday, it was time to visit some specialty coffee spots closer to home. I have the couple I met while snorkelling in Belize to thank for putting Taith Coffee on my radar. They clearly have great taste because Taith is truly special, from the welcoming staff and well-stocked bookshelves to the outstanding coffee.
