Welcome to Pekaboo Coffee House, a delightful café nestled in the heart of Lausanne, located at Rue de la Pontaise 46. This charming spot is not just a place to grab your daily caffeine fix; it’s a local haven where espresso meets warmth and community. With a phone number to reach them at +41 79 622 71 95, you're just a call away from discovering your new favorite coffee spot.

As you step inside, the cozy atmosphere envelopes you like a comforting hug. The interior is adorned with homey touches that radiate warmth, making you feel as if you’ve just walked into a friend’s inviting living room. As customer Ferenc Fekete describes, it’s the kind of place where "you would sit at somebody's home," and indeed, you’ll often find locals gathering here to enjoy their favorite brews and hearty conversations.

The star of the show at Peekaboo is undeniably its coffee, which many customers rave is the best in the area. The café offers a delightful array of beverages, including their signature Bubble Coffee that promises a fun twist on your traditional cup. Customer Muskan Kashyap particularly loved her drink: “Sarah also made me the best café glacé latté... perfectly balanced with just the right amount of milk, coffee, and sugar." It’s this attention to detail and the personal touch from the owners that sets Peekaboo apart.

One of the most beloved aspects of Peekaboo Coffee House is its dog-friendly policy, inviting your furry friends to relax alongside you while you sip your latte. Yana Sivirina calls the owner "the nicest lady ever," which perfectly encapsulates the heartwarming hospitality you can expect here. It’s this welcoming spirit that makes it not just a café, but a community hub where everyone feels at home.

The selection for breakfast, while small, is certainly exquisite and thoughtfully curated. With friendly staff to guide your choices and create a friendly ambiance, you can settle in for a chat, work on your projects, or indulge in some leisurely reading, just as Luca Tschiderer experienced.

Even though not everyone may find the coffee options akin to specialty coffee, as noted by Razvan Grec, the polite interactions and the authentic courtyard vibe make it worthwhile. Peekaboo Coffee House remains an enchanting escape for all coffee enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike, combining quality coffee experiences with a neighborhood feel that’s hard to replicate.

In a world of mass-produced café chains, Peekaboo stands out as a genuine gem. So, whether you’re a local resident or just passing through, don’t miss the chance to immerse yourself in the lovely café culture of Lausanne at Peekaboo Coffee House.

The Peekaboo owners are incredibly down to earth, and I absolutely loved Sarah’s energy! The atmosphere feels so natural and authentic, nothing commercial about it at all. I really appreciate how it’s nestled within the neighborhood, giving it such a warm, familial vibe. Sarah also made me the best café glacé latté.. perfectly balanced with just the right amount of milk, coffee, and sugar. It has officially become my go to coffee place whenever I’m in Lausanne!

Great café with a really nice atmosphere. Great spot to meet people from the neighborhood and extremely welcoming staff. Good coffee and a small but nice selection for breakfast, good place to chat or work or read.

I reviewed this place with 5 stars just because I don’t like to affect the activity or the potential customers opinion but this coffee shop doesn’t have anything to do with specialty coffee. They serve one-button press coffee (and this is enough to say about a coffee shop). The owner is very polite but the place need some changes (or at least not to be realated to speciality coffee).
