Şarq Әfsanәsi
A much more upmarket çay evi (teahouse) can charge entirely ludicrous sums (AZN6 to AZN20) for a pot of tea with samovar of water and a range of jams and fruit. The best such places tend to be indoors, with comparatively exotic interiors, qalyan (hubble-bubble water pipes) to smoke and possibly a belly dancing show, as at Şarq Әfsanәsi.

Kafe Fəvvarələr
The same tea will cost around AZN2.50 if a ‘compulsory’ cut-up Snickers bar arrives with your teapot. This will happen at most places on the Bulvar and at the well-located Kafe Fəvvarələr.

Café Caramel
Good espressos come with complimentary cookie and glass of chilled drinking water. Small, with modern décor including a bridge-like upper level offering street views down through century-old vaulting.

Azza
Three floors of coffee-and-cream minimalism within a historic pavilion right on Fountain Sq. Excellent food including decent pastas (AZN7) is served by self-consciously handsome, slow-motion waiters.

Aroma
Baku’s best combination of comfort, fashionable décor and great coffee. Pod lamps and electro-retro feel downstairs, street-view sofa seats above. It’s also a wi-fi hot spot.

Ocean Deck
Plonked in the middle of a duck pond, the terrace of this American café-bar makes a delightful people-watching perch in the summer. However, its small interior is rather lacklustre.

Public
More comfy sofa seating is hidden away in the back room behind the sparse front bar area. Excellent espressos are comparatively inexpensive (AZN2) and there’s an AZN6 lunch deal.

Chocolate
A classy, high-ceilinged café with pseudo-1920s touches, weighted hanging lamps and tasselled tablecloths on small wrought-iron tables. However, macchiatos are far too milky.

Café Mozart
With Klimt inside and a super-popular street terrace outside the Mozart remains a long-term favourite for AZN8 Turkish breakfasts, AZN10 lunch buffets or decent steak dinners.
