Extraordinary things that you have experienced are stored much more permanently in your brain. So don't give things for Christmas this year, but experiences.

Coffee specialties from Bremen
Bremen has a great coffee culture. Every third cup of coffee drunk in Germany comes from Bremen. So it's no wonder that the activity of coffee brewing, which was invented specifically for this purpose, has developed in Bremen over time.
It's all about being together in a cozy atmosphere and enjoying a cup of hot bean juice. However, this applies to both the cult drink coffee and tea.
So you could simply invite someone over for a good cup of coffee this Christmas or give them the fine coffee specialties of the Hanseatic city as a gift.
However, finding the best coffee for you among the 14 roasteries in Bremen is a task in itself. One of our personal favorites is the Johann Jacobs Haus. Here you'll not only find good coffee, but also regular events centered around the caffeine bomb.
🎄 FOR WHOM? Gourmets:inside good coffee
⏰ WHEN? Whenever you like
💰 HOW MUCH? From €2 for a cup in the café & up to €36 for a bag of coffee
Special experiences in Bremen's most pompous theater
Everyone in Bremen knows the beautiful & snow-white giant building on Ostertorsteinweg. While its pompous appearance makes quite an impression, it has enchanted everyone who visits it from the inside for generations.
The Theater Bremen offers a broad program, divided into 4 sections: musical theater, drama, dance & young theater Bremen. Together with "the small house", no wish remains unfulfilled here. 🎭
If you already love the theater and want to convince a loved one to do the same, or if you've never been to a theater before and want to get your first impressions in the premier class, then the Theater Bremen gift subscription is an excellent option for you.
🎄 FOR WHOM? For all those who value culture

Bremen's gift landscape is particularly characterized by experiences. With shows at the GOP or Theater Bremen. With do-it-yourself beer-making days and Weser cruises. Or with arcade gaming and our Geheimkonzerte. If you're looking for a gift in this area, you've got really good cards. (Cards, like tickets. lol)
4 Where can I find cheap gifts in Bremen?
There are several strategies for saving money when looking for the right gift. Often underrated is the gifting of 2nd hand goods. This gives the item or thing a second life (good for the environment). You save yourself a penny and the recipient can still enjoy it. Another option is to simply give something smaller as a gift. It doesn't always have to be a Playstation, but can also simply be time together over a coffee. There are no limits to the imagination. There are also flea markets in Bremen in winter. You can also find something here.
