You can smell the cooking from a distance - pretty strong! Super busy spot, the patio's always full. The coffee's really unique, super foamy, almost like a cocktail shake.

Très bon café authentique. Les serveurs sont sympathiques & efficaces. La musique est un peu forte, ce n'est pas un bon café pour travailler, mais excellent pour déguster.

I love this little gem. It has hilarious rules posted to the wall & has are Italian gone rogue vibe. It's may favourite stop downtown to grab a flat white without alone milk!! ;) I do wish they had coconut milk though rather than oat milk which is basically like drinking pasta water.

Italian staff & writing fill the space. It's loud & chaotic, an instant reminder of a typical café in the old country. A great spot for a good cappuccino & a tiny treat.

Decent coffee, nothing exceptional as the cappuccino froth was lacking. Pastries on offer were great & it was a unique atmosphere. Would still go back.

Belle endroit dynamique avec une belle clientèle entre affaires & étudiante. Bon café cappuccino, le seule bémol j'ai trouvé qu'il n'était pas assez chaud à mon goût. Malgré tout je compte reveni
