Good coffee / cafes in the South

I had a Taipei chat about coffee, but wanted see what others like here in Southern Taiwan. Something like this local Kaoshuing one I like

Last year I visited Kaohsiung city and try some nice coffee next to the K Cultural Center
the shop name is 興趣咖啡

Also I like some of the coffee shops at Chaishan (Gushan district, Kaohsiung) , with a nice view of the Sea

The owners travel to Europe or parts of Asia every year for “research” (except this year due to Covid, of course). Great scones. They’re super nice too.

NOT awesome coffee, but I enjoy sitting out front at Good Man Coffee (the big one on Jung Shan Road) when it gets cooler. That can be a fun place to watch people.

Big cafe. I found this place more to eat than to drink coffee. They have steaks, and other full meals maybe next time I will go there for coffee

Nice for espresso, only THREE seats and outdoor espresso bar.

Kudos is huge with lots of seats and windows and charge stations.

This one is ok, but no power outlets. The newer ones have power outlets and just more modern. One good thing is there a cheap Singaporean cafe near this

This one is newer (can not see listed on Google maps but been there at least since summer) corner of Fushing Road and Qingnian 1st Road, Xinxing District or maybe Lingya.

More south at ZhuTian TRA Station, in old restored building and across old Japanese era station and Library.
