Hopper

Simple café with excellent coffee. Finding a café that celebrates filter coffee is relatively rare in the area, but Hopper is doing just that. They have filter coffee in four different ways, plus all the typical espresso drinks.
I tried the Aeropress filter coffee and the regular black coffee. Definitely go with the Aeropress if you want to try a great non-​traditional, non-​Italian style cup. The coffee tasted light & sweet, yet still deep & flavorful — it would fit right in with cool LA café coffee.
The fresh mint teas and in-​house baked bread looked really good, too. I noticed a lot of people solo on their laptops, so this would be a solid place to work or hang out for longer.

Imho one of the best coffee in town. Relaxed environment and great to have breakfast or lunch as well.

I just love places that make you feel you are seen and invisible at the same time. Great place to just read a book or write whilst enjoying one of their loose teas and the pastry of the day. I mostly wander in for a latish lunch on a random day off from work looking to find a different atmosphere and for ideas to land. I love their houmous and tomato olive open sandwich, makes me feel healthy and less guilty when I opt for that piece of applecake after (which is delish). The bread is the star of the show — the show that is watching them make the dough and slide the bread in and out of the oven… A little lunchroom of calm and buzz with great food and drink, yet to try out their speciality alchoholic drinks with a friend… is still on the list. So hopp hopp to Hopper!

Just had lunch at Hopper! Nice and young place, very nice atmosphere and good food.
They made their own bread and they serve it with some Italian and Spanish salami and cheese. You can find also some soups or tosti. I took a glass of white wine, there were three different types. Next time I will definitely try a cake: they look great!
And there are smiling people… I like Hopper!

There are places you keep visiting time and time again and become your favourite spot to hang out so quickly and then you kinda forget all about them. But here’s a friendly reminder to visit Hopper once again!
With Rotterdam getting more and more coffee joints it’s good to go back to the basics: really, really good coffee. Hopper also always serves an extraordinary healthy lunch that doesn’t break the bank. All the bread and baked goods are freshly made in their little kitchen in the back. If you walk by you’ll always find someone kneading bread and adding finishing touches to sandwiches.
They offer a great workspace that is quiet enough to actually get work done and with plenty of people watching when you take your occasional break. And with Summer fast approaching you want to unwind on their terrace for as long as you can. And even better news: they are opening a second location at the Zwaanshals soon!

They have third wave quality coffee and great ambience. There’s a ground floor with large windows facing the street and a nice loft the size of about half of the square footage of the café.
I tried their flat white and espresso — both were up to standard but not exceptional.
