Brand new coffee bar KAWA opens its doors

On 1 March, our new coffee bar KAWA has opened its doors! Over the past weeks and months, we have worked hard to transform the former garden shop at Pachthof into an attractive bar where our Friends and visitors
can enjoy delicious coffee and sweet treats.

Meise Botanic Garden is a specialist in coffee. We have been researching coffee plants for decades - one of our researchers even discovered a new coffee plant species in 2021. Because more than 60% of wild coffee
species are threatened with extinction, Meise Botanic Garden is fully committed to the preservation of plants around the world.

With KAWA we go back to the roots of coffee: as the original name for coffee from Turkish and Arabic it’s also referring to its origin in Ethiopia. Stop by for a coffee moment or take a break during your visit to the Botanic Garden. In KAWA, you will find the delicious coffee of roaster OR, as well as sweet snacks. And a nice library with plant books. Did you know that we also get ingredients from our Culinary Garden?

You will find KAWA at the ‘Pachthof’ (the farmstead),
