Square Out Space Cafe

Hainan

LoginSave

With calming blue and white interiors, and ample windows that let in what breeze there is in Haikou, this charming cafe and art space is a cooling and quiet place to hang out. As well as staging its own musical performances in the evenings, the cafe is also a good place to find out what cultural events, such as concerts and theatre performances, are happening in the city.

The cafe is on the 3rd floor above a wonderful antique shop that is full of wooden furniture, many made from former sea vessels.
