New Jozi Coffeehouse

Two friends traded corporate careers for New Jozi, taking its name from a mashup of New York and Johannesburg, nicknamed Jozi, the cities each of them called home before Rotterdam. The shop pours from a rotating lineup of local roasters, Shokunin Coffee Collective, Schot, and Manhattan Coffee Roasters, rather than settling on one house name, letting regulars discover a new favorite each visit.

Breakfast and lunch run alongside the coffee program, a Korean glazed chicken sandwich and Norwegian pancakes among the regulars' picks, with affordable breakfast sets available from opening. A supervised kids play area and family friendly pricing on weekdays make it one of the more practical laptop friendly stops in the neighborhood for anyone traveling with children.
