Instagrammable cafes have popped up all over the world with decor, dishes and drinks that are made for the gram’. The kind of places that give meaning to the phrase ‘the camera eats first’.
And we can’t deny that they’re absolutely beautiful. So, we wanted to round up the best cafe designs and the most exciting food from around the world. Whether it’s the setting, the decor, or the creative dishes, there’s something special about every one of these spots. The places that you simply cannot afford to miss when arriving in a new city.

8th. Boh Tea Estate – Cameron Highlands, Malaysia
This might not be the spot for coffee loyalists as they only serve tea, but it could be the best cup of tea you’ll have in your life – fresh from the tea plantations that surround it. It’s hard to tear your eyes (or camera) away from the sprawling green hills, and luckily you don’t have to – overhanging viewpoints and large windows take full advantage of the mesmerising scenery.
