Café culture in Trabzon is less about coffee menus and more about a view and a long sit. The hillside tea gardens on Boztepe are the classic version: rows of tables looking straight down over the city, the port and the sea, busiest around sunset and on weekend evenings. Along the coast road, cafés trade the panorama for sea air and easy access, which suits families and anyone with a pushchair.

In the centre, third-wave coffee shops sit next to traditional tea houses; both usually run late. Expect tea to be the default order, service to be unhurried, and the highland cafés above Maçka and Çaykara to close earlier than city ones, especially outside summer.
