Top Specialty Coffee Cities in the World

Ranked by the number of tracked coffee shops we've identified as specialty or craft coffee venues — signals curated from menus and reviews such as single-origin beans, pour-over brewing and direct-trade roasting. Only cities with at least 10 listed venues and at least 3 specialty venues are included, so the ranking reflects a real specialty scene rather than a single standout café.
