Longtime coffee roaster Paul Sharo and his coffee crew finally decided to open their own cafe and workshop. And frankly, to me Man Met Bril (Man With Glasses) Headquarters feels as if it has always been. <\/strong><\/p>\n

As their postcard slash business card says they\u2019re the only coffee brand from Rotterdam. But their new digs actually don\u2019t suit the title or come to think of it, they might have just nailed it. The place is nothing posh, but has a light and simple decor and is located\u00a0 in one of the so-called Hofbogen underneath the old train tracks.<\/p>\n

At the captain\u2019s table
\nWhen inside, at first glance one could easily find themselves having coffee in London or Cape Town. The crowd, the staff and the timeless interior add up to an international vibe that makes you feel right at ease. \u00a0As if you just walked in on a roasting session, you can sit down in the middle of coffee roasters, buckets and stacked sacks of coffee beans.\u00a0 It feels a bit like you\u2019ve gotten a hold of a hot seat at the captain\u2019s table in a restaurant. And that\u2019s the way you are treated. With hospitality and politeness but with a typical Rotterdam laidback down to earth attitude.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in a name?
\nWant to have a chat with the owner? Well I guess it doesn\u2019t come as a surprise to you he wears glasses. And quite a big beard.
\nYou can find Man Met Bril just outside the city center. A few other places found their way to this upcoming area as well. Man Met Bril is just a few steps away from Urban bakery<\/a> and close to art gallery Roodkapje<\/a> and vegan restaurant Gare du Nord<\/a>. Just follow the Hofbogen until you smell the coffee.<\/p>\n
