Liángyǒu Shūfāng

Qingdao


Hidden up in the rafters on the 4th floor of the former Jiaozhou Post Office (c1901), this cafe-cum-bookshop is a serene place to take a break from the summer sunshine. The coffee's good and there's a decent selection of Western food (soups, salads, pasta, sandwiches). Has a ground-floor cafe too, but it's cosier up top.
