I want to use the seaside waves
To roll a dream filled with the aroma of beans
I also want to use the crisp afternoon sunset
To accompany you on a journey through the misty spring sky
Not long after its opening in June 2022, A friend visited and wrote on the glass window the most touching poem of “Coffee Lounge 珈琲朗 .” The proprietor left his original business job and with his wife, returned to the warehouse next to his relatives’ old house. Discarding old fishing gear, farm tools, and clutter while keeping the short steps leading upstairs
I discovered this gen in Fangshan in one of my last trips to Kenting. I used to stop on Taiwan Provincial Highway 1 in Fangshan at Ajie Coffee Truck and Hetian Coffee legendary cafes. However, this relatively new cafe on the Fangshan coast caught my attention and I decided to stop by with my new DJI Mini Pro 3, and InstaPro2. It turned out to be very small but in no way cramped – Coffee Lounge has indoor seats, as well as an outdoor seating area, and it is located right on the coast – check out the aerial view to see location first:
Let go of the habits of city life; if this place also urbanizes, it will lose its sense of harmony, so I like the life that is just right now. A cup of coffee or an evening of sunset afterglow, the taste of rice balls without the burden of a full burp.
There are no unnecessary decorations here, the earthen and wooden construction and the simple color scheme with Japanese serenity. Even so small place, arranged so neatly and smart offers such a many places to sit, just look around and walk around in our 360 degree virtual tour:

The owner hopes that this is allowing travelers to unload their weariness around 4 p.m., sitting at the temple entrance (you can see the small temple just near the entrance of the cafe if you walk out the door of the Coffee Lounge, listening to the birds and the waves, with the wind carrying a hint of salt, Why not enjoy together this most beautiful moment?
Do you see the wooden entrance door of the coffee lounge behind the temple? This is also your landmark to not miss the place while you drive – as soon as you see the temple, you’ve arrived.
