Clever Café rethinks the roadside stop as a place to recharge – not just your car, but also your body and mind. Known for its electric charging stations, Clever has partnered with architecture firm COBE to create a thoughtful alternative to the traditional petrol station.

Instead of neon signs and gasoline fumes, Clever Café offers natural materials, open space, and a quiet atmosphere. The building is rooted in the landscape and brings nature inside through large glass façades, greenery, and an honest material palette – where wood is wood, and steel is steel.

There’s no “order here” counter. Guests are greeted by hosts, and the experience is timed to match the car’s charging session, so the break feels natural and unhurried.

Sustainability is part of everything – from the architecture to the seasonal ingredients. The menu is short, 90 % organic, with minimal waste and prices comparable to a standard service station.

Few choices. High quality. A simple, well-designed stop that makes the road break feel worth taking – not just time to pass, but time to enjoy.
