Haus am Walde

Difficult to imagine at the time of writing (February), but this really is a fantastic place to hang out in summer and early autumn. Certainly one of Bremen’s nicest beer gardens, with a selection of mainstream brews on taps (but including Störtebeker). Very popular with students, uni staff and everyone at the end of the day – and what’s better than sitting under the lime and chestnut trees, sipping a non-alcoholic (yes, there are excellent non-alcoholic beers available as well) or alcoholic beer and chatting with friends and colleagues. The Haus am Walde is hardly a secret, though, so expect to share the table.

Yellow Bird Coffee

If you are taking your brew seriously (as you should), this is one of the best places in Bremen to have a coffee or two. Not exactly close to the university, but if you are based in Neustadt or happen to be in the neighbourhood, the yellow bird is definitely worth a visit.

KUKOON

KUKOON is an alternative cultural center organized by a collective and has a lot to offer: interesting events, concerts, but also culinary delights: lunch, coffee and cake, and evening meals. In between, you can relax and hang out with friends there. Open 12-X

Eisen

This is the place to later in the evening – or maybe even later. Very small, rugged bar for those who´d love a beer served by Sid Vicious.

Espresso House

Good iced coffee (which can be hard to find in Germany!), good cake, and a good place to chill.

CLUB27 im Bremer PresseClub

A gem of classic modernist interior design in the middle of the medieval Schnoor neighbourhood serving seriously good fairtrade coffee, organic lemonades and homemade baked goods. Come for the Eames Lounge Chairs, stay for the drinks (not their official motto). The place used to be a press club for informal chats between press and politics; these days it sees mainly literature events, small music gigs and public talks.
