perfect level of cramped where you can't really be annoyed about it because it's'cozy' but you'll be really self conscious of how much stuff you have on you. always nice to see people studying although i don't understand the compulsion to take over an entire four-person table to study for math140. good sweet treatsView more

I went to Cafe Aunja twice this past week! Both times around 11am or so & although it was a bit busy, my friends & I found tables fairly easily/ after a brief wait. The set up is that you order at the counter & sit wherever. The first time I got the Majoun smoothie which was absolutely delicious, filling, & well sized (highly recommend!). A few days later I went back for brunch, & got the Mountain Omelette - also very yummy! I look forward to trying more of their drinks & food in the future.View more

Super spot! Super cozy, bon service, belle ambiance... La tisane menthe & jujube était vraiment bonne! J'ai oublié de bien mélanger; gênez vous pas de la brassée puisqu'elle est un peu sucré & qu'il le mette en début de préparation ;)View more

This is one of those kinds of places that really does deserve 5 stars. We had smoothies with banana, walnut & date which had highly interesting & delicious flavor & texture, a chocolate cake that I could say the same about, & probably the best lentil soup I've ever had.View more

Lugar concurrido pero vale la pena ir. Los sándwiches son buenísimos, los huevos también. El personal en mi parecer son un poco toscos pero es un lugar muy acogedor.View more
