Cafe Stories

Cafe Stories is a seasonal beach café in Melluži, Jūrmala, set beside the Baltic Sea on Latvia’s coast. The café stands on the beach between Dārzu iela and Krūmu iela, giving it a relaxed setting for combining food, drinks and time outdoors. Its character is informal and summery, with the sound of the sea and a layout designed for lingering rather than a quick stop.

The food offering focuses on grilled dishes, light snacks and a selection of drinks served from the beachside bar. The menu suits casual daytime eating during a beach visit, while the setting also works for an evening drink or a meal at sunset. Cafe Stories has both a chillout area and a lounge area, creating separate spaces for sunbathing, unwinding and meeting friends.

Sun loungers are available for guests who want to spend more time on the beach, and the café provides a way to combine a seaside meal with a longer day outdoors. The open-air setting also makes the venue suitable for informal celebrations and organised gatherings. Events can include adult occasions, children’s birthdays and other family celebrations, with food and entertainment arranged as part of the booking process.

Families are particularly well catered for. The children’s area includes soft play, developmental games and a trampoline, while animators are involved in keeping younger visitors occupied during selected activities. Children’s events with themed entertainment are also part of the café’s programme. This arrangement gives adults space to relax in the lounge or chillout areas while children play nearby.

Cafe Stories is best suited to beach days, relaxed group meet-ups and family outings rather than formal dining. The combination of grilled food, drinks, loungers, children’s facilities and outdoor event space gives the café a broad summer appeal. Seasonal operation means that the venue forms part of Jūrmala’s warm-weather beach scene, with visits best planned around its summer schedule. The address is Dārzu iela, Krūmu iela, Jūrmala, LV-2010.
