Wikimedia Café

  • Lido bridge with café on the "Friedelstrand" in Klagenfurt on the Lake Woerth, Carinthia, Austria
  • Café Mélange, a coffeehouse in Vienna.
  • This photograph was taken in the city of Takamatsu, Kagawa prefecture, Japan. This building is at Takamatsu Castle. It appears to be the Hiun-kaku (披雲閣), a Taishō-period building on the site of the original of the same name.
  • A Chaikhaneh (tea house) close to the Zendan-e Eskandar (Alexander the great’s prison) at Yazd. Its location underground allows to spend some wonderful moments in a cool ambiance, refreshed by the flow of the water in the central pool.
  • Sèvres Porcelain Manufactory (France, Sèvres, founded 1756-present), Etienne-Jean Chabry (France, active 1764-1787, before 1749-after 1787)
  • Bowl of macha green tea and small sweet on an oribe plate, at the Tōsui-an (陶翠庵) tea house at the Aichi Prefectural Ceramic Museum. The chawan is Ido type by Yamada Kazutoshi (山田和俊), the Oribe ware plate is from the ceramic craft studio of the museum done by staff.
  • Early morning sip of a steaming hot Qahwa can take you through the day
  • Photo post-card by V. Derounian, 1930, of an elderly inhabitant of a Beehive village in Aleppo's district in northern Syria, sipping the traditional bitter murra Arabic coffee and smoking a cigarette. His over-coat is lined with wool, and serves as a mattress and a blanket (sleeping bag) when traveling, and known locally as furwa, and hence the western word of "fur". The black Kaffiya on his head conserves the heat from the sun in the cold climate of the north.
  • The Coffee Bearer, a painting by John Frederick Lewis (1805–1876)
  • Free pouring of latte art at Doppio Ristretto in Chiang Mai. The artist won several championships in Australia and came in 6th at the world championship in 2011. This is his signature latte art: angel surfing on waves.
  • Rustic Barista Specialty Coffee in Korat
