Worth a journey
Bucharest · Charles de Gaulle, Romania
Why it’s on the route
BOB Coffee Lab roasts its own coffee on a custom Giesen W6A, with roast profiles developed by co-founder Alexandru Niculae, the 2016 World Coffee Roasting Champion. The bar pairs a Slayer espresso machine with V60 and AeroPress, and the original Piața Charles de Gaulle café sits in a small villa near Herăstrău Park with a minimalist interior and a terrace.
