Does anybody know a really good coffee shop to while away an afternoon? Or even just to stop by to re-energize after an exhausting Saturday's shopping in the city centre?

I like Coffee Master - extensive coffee menu (a medium Americano is 24RMB), relaxed atmosphere, high-speed wireless internet plus one computer you can use. Does snacks too. It turns into a bar in the evening with loads of imported wines.
About 100m south of the corner of JingWu Lu and HuangHe Lu.

Do you know Coffee Time in the Da Shang Hai shopping mall. It's next to the Indian restaurant. Pretty good place, although it's small so you're not guaranteed a seat. Fast internet, I do most of my lesson plans there.

I just found this on eChina cities...
BACK WINDOW CAFE 后窗咖啡
Walking in, you’ll instantly confront comfortable seating, a quiet atmosphere, soft music, and a faint coffee aroma. These are the charms of Back Window Café, an artistic environment graced by colourful décor and a jungle of green plants stuffed into every corner of the shop. Not just a hangout for young people who come to chat with friends, the café has also earned a reputation as a romantic spot to bring a hot date. Besides providing an impressive array of coffees and desserts (such as its popular cappuccino and chocolate sweets), Back Window Café also plays Chinese and foreign movies, classical music and offers guests a look at their collection of art magazines and books. If you’re lucky you might catch a performance by some of the foreigners the caféoften invites to play here, and share a peaceful night listening with the other customers.

Great spot! I'm really curious about this suggestion:
SODA BLUE CAFE 苏打蓝咖啡馆
Located just west of the Weiyilu and Jingqilu intersection, the newly opened Soda Blue Cafe is nice, easy to get to and has an eye-catching door display that makes it hard to miss. Inside, the Soda Blue Cafe is retro and stylish with a long bar and deep red brick walls. The originally high-ceilinged building was divided into three floors, giving diners at each table plenty of leg room. Besides its cozy surroundings and authentic, Italian-style coffee, the cafe also boasts a semi-automatic coffee machine that makes sure guests have freshly ground coffee in their cups.
Add: 20 meters west of the intersection between Jingqilu and Weiyilu Zhengzhou (near Weiyilu), Zhengzhou 地址:郑州市经七路与纬一路向西20米(近纬一路) Tel: 0371 6382 3556 Price: about 50 RMB per person By bus: take line 21, 32 or 205 to the Daerfuyuan Station

Elegant and tastefully decorated, you’ll find all sorts of trinkets around the place, including clocks, coffee cups and art magazines, as well as many old movies.
