Nestled in a former printing building, the Akkurat Café sits in the southeastern corner, framed by expansive windows.

Outside, a sun-drenched terrace awaits, encircled by striking 1960s architecture.

The café offers exceptional specialty coffee and lemonades, alongside wholesome breakfasts, indulgent treats, and hearty lunches.

Being at Akkurat always feels a bit like stepping into an art gallery.

The walls showcase rotating artworks, while a rectangular light installation hangs beneath the blush-pink ceiling, casting a warm glow.

At the heart of the space, three poured-concrete counters serve as the stage where coffee and matcha are crafted with meticulous care.

The hum of guests’ voices reverberates gently through the room, creating a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

Bright and airy, Akkurat is a place where a simple coffee break has the power to lift your spirits.

The gallery-like ambiance is far from coincidental.

The café is part of the Akkurat Studios, a creative studio that collaborates closely with artists, functioning as both a production company and a publisher.

In 2021, the team realized their dream of running an adjoining café - not just as a space for their own staff, but as a vibrant gathering spot for artists, museum-goers (the Jewish Museum is just around the corner), and the many creative agencies that populate the neighborhood.
