Haus Nowhere, the coolest café in Shanghai

Haus Nowhere is a stylish café hidden in a quiet corner of the Huaihai Middle Road area. With a unique design that is simple yet elegant, it perfectly blends industrial elements with art.

Haus Nowhere is not a café that anyone passing by would easily notice because it doesn’t have a large sign. But once you open the door, it feels like stepping into another world—quiet, peaceful, and full of charm. The interior decoration uses white, gray, and black tones combined with wood and exposed concrete. There are large wooden tables for people working and small corners perfect for sitting alone on a rainy day.

Getting here is very convenient. If you are staying in the heart of Shanghai, you can take the subway to South Shaanxi Road Station and walk less than 10 minutes to find Haus Nowhere hidden in a small alley between old buildings and boutique shops.

The must-try drink is the “Dirty Coffee,” served in a clear glass showing distinct layers of coffee and milk. It has a smooth, fragrant taste. The café offers a limited selection of desserts, but the quality is top-notch, especially the rich chocolate cake made fresh daily.

Haus Nowhere is a café for those who want to rest their mind in a big city, sit quietly to think, or just enjoy good coffee amidst the hustle and bustle of Shanghai. If you like simplicity filled with details, don’t forget to stop by here, and you’ll realize that sometimes “nowhere” might be exactly where your heart has been longing to be.
