Shopping Best coffee in Luxembourg?

I know there is this Golden Bean in the city center. Anything else?

Golden Bean and Café Knopes, IMHO.

I personally don't like the coffee at the golden bean, I prefer knopes, even if it is really small.

If you want the best espresso you should go to Conter, on the Grand Rue, I guess they make decent coffee too but never tried.

It is very small. Once or twice I've been able to get a table at Knopes but usually it's very crowded. Their other location is much bigger but not in the city center.

Knopes, of course. They roast their coffee, and are incredibly good at that. Their baristas (at least Route d'Esch) are second to none in Luxembourg IMHO. They also sell beans, and their selected "cup of excellence" coffees are just incredible if you like the real stuff (I mean: no sugar, no milk, no nothing!).

Didn't they (or at least one) win some international barista competition?

I think so, they have trophies on display in their coffeeshop route d'Esch!
