They have a nice choice of sandwiches, pizzas, & meals. The decor & space is lovely. We were disappointed to arrive to see they are temporarily closed. I had visited the website & there was no indication. Several people arrived at the entrance & were surprised that the website hadn't indicated the temporary closure. We were sorry not to be able to eat, & will return, but wanted to leave a friendly suggestion to the owner that they could communicate better with customers!View more

Très surpris par ce café ! Déjà, le lieu est unique & authentique. Le choix est immense, avec tellement de choses qui mettent l'eau à la bouche. Pour en avoir goûté plusieurs, je dois dire que j'ai vraiment adoré ! Les suprêmes, les tartes, ainsi que les biscuits ou cookies, sont tous merveilleusement bons. Puis, le lieu & l'ambiance rendent l'expérience d'autant plus agréable. Tout est top ! C'est un café dans lequel il faut absolument aller !View more

Lobby itself is it's own experience not the mention the actual seating area. The plants are all fake, but they add such a nice ambience. The food is AMAZING. The pastries are beautiful & the staff are super polite. To note, the seating by the cafe is not for working, but there is seating inside the building, exterior to the cafe where you can bring your food & study.View more

Loved the place, the food was excellent & very tasty. You can tell that they use very good quality ingredients. The place looks amazing, & I felt relaxed & enjoyed the atmosphere. The service was a bit long when we went there, around 1 pm, but the very friendly & kind staff were amazing. They took the time to explain the menu & even gave recommendations. & the pastries....lord have mercy! Will come back for more that's for sure.
Overall, fresh food & ingredients, amazing pastries, & an awesome atmosphere. Recommend the place & I will come back. Thank you for the nice meal. 😁View more

wow! i'm thoroughly impressed: amea café boasts a beautiful spacious environment for writing, reading, socializing, & dining. it's cozy & grand simultaneously & i honestly didn't want to leave. i ordered a flat white & their banana freddo (which i didn't know was famous) & both were soooo yummy i had to physically stop myself from overdosing on caffeine. they also serve lunch! i tried their pizza & it was sooo delicious. highly recommend if you're in the area!
p.s. it allows laptops all the time any where in the cafe! heck yes! this is my new writing spot.View more

The fungi sandwich is certifiably mid. The Shakshouka, however, is pretty good. Coffee is hit or miss, but usually good. The vibe is 10/10. Too bad thy close at 4.View more

A lovely spot to relax in the heart of the city. The atmosphere is calm & stylish, with a beautiful view of the greenery outside. The cappuccino was excellent & the croissant fresh & delicious. I was just a little disappointed that there was no grilled cheese on the menu. Still, it's a cozy place I'd be happy to return to!View more

⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐? Amazing Spot!
AMEA Coffee is a hidden gem! Not only is the coffee fantastic, but they also have a bakery inside with delicious croissants, pizza, & a great variety of Mediterranean food. Everything we tried was fresh & full of flavor.
Huge thanks to NADIA for her warm hospitality & helping us choose the best items - her service was truly exceptional. Can't wait to go back!View more

Not only that, their lattes are AMAZING😍😍View more

I tried the prosciutto sandwich & a matcha latte with almond milk. The matcha was average, but the sandwich was pretty good. A little pricey (70 something for two) & busy/loud but overall a cute little place in a office building vibe.View more

Pretty place, but the food was meh. Average, not great. I had ordered the Aubergine plate. Frankly, it was disappointing. The matcha was bad. Tasted the vegetarian gnocchi, it was good. It was crowded & many tables weren't cleaned.
On the other hand, the desserts were very good & rich.View more
