Reviews describe Café La Chouette as a cozy, welcoming spot where cookie decorating becomes a fun, affordable activity for kids, couples and groups alike. The experience is described as easy and engaging, with a friendly staff, tasty biscuits, and drinks like hot chocolate and lattes; the atmosphere is often warm and relaxing, and the activity itself is seen as a charming way to spend time together. While most feedback is positive, a few notes mention occasional slower or less friendly service and, at times, a chaotic feel during a children's party. Reservations are advised, especially on weekends or holidays, since seating is limited. Overall, it comes across as a lovely, family friendly destination with a creative, playful vibe and repeat appeal.View restaurant profile
Café Kujira is described as a bright, stylish spot with a welcoming staff and generally excellent coffee, especially Paraiso Silver for pour over, and solid matcha and London fog; the space is noted as great for studying or working thanks to ample natural light and a calm, comfortable atmosphere, and service is often praised for attentiveness and for remembering regular orders. While most reviews highlight the vibe, coffee quality, and pastries, a few mention disappointing drinks with weak or unbalanced milk foams or some bland items, yet the overall impression remains that Café Kujira is a reliable, well loved neighborhood cafe with a nice ambiance and convenient location.View restaurant profile
