Did Someone say Coffee?

Chains such as Starbucks, Costa and Café Nero try to provide
a certain atmosphere for customers through their choice of furniture and décor.
These usually consist of large sofas that you can sink into and abstract
pictures that make your mind wonder. These are ideal settings to get lost in
conversation in but I can’t help but love local cafes that have a quirky design
and unique character.
When wondering the streets of Aberdeen one afternoon, my
friend and I came across this quaint and hidden away little coffee shop just
off Belmont Street called The Coffee House.
As you approach the counter there is a wonderful selection of tempting treats such as cookies, cakes and buns. Chalk boards behind list a wide variety of delicious food and drink. Unlike most cafes, The Coffee House provide vegan options on a majority of dishes.
When we stepped inside we were greeted by a warm and
welcoming air that was filled with delicious foody smells. The place was full
of happy chatter that was also contrasted with people in headphones doing their
study. It is a great space to get away from your surroundings and look for
inspiration. There is a homely atmosphere which I believe is created by the
decorative cushions that are perfectly placed on the seats and the pleasant dim lighting.

The coffee tastes brilliant (I recommend the lattes!) and
the staff are also very accommodating and to top it all off they also offer a
student discount!
So next time you’re walking around Aberdeen and find
yourself at a loose end, or you’re looking for a change of scene to help you
study I highly recommend you stop in to The Coffee House for a tasty
refreshment and to soak up the homely atmosphere!
