Ganba Coffee

Ganba's name and greeting come straight from Japanese, がんば, roughly meaning do your best or go for it, and that spirit carries through a small, considered space on Simonffy utca just off Debrecen's main square. The interior comes across as cozy and quiet, with small design touches worked into every corner of the shop, down to the restroom.

Matcha gets equal billing with coffee here, strawberry and coconut versions rotating alongside a steady espresso and filter program, among the best matcha to be found anywhere in the city. A five star average across 120 reviews points to a shop that stays consistent despite its size, easygoing on a weekday morning and popular enough with tourists passing through that finding a seat can take some patience.
