On a pris deux lattés vraiment bons avec une pâtisserie perse le cadre est agréable & la déco perse était superbe , petit bémol l'endroit est très bruyant il y'a bcp de monde ... Le service peut être amélioré nous avons cherché nous même les menus ... mais cela peut être compréhensible de part l'achalandage élevé . J'y reviendrai quand même

Popped in here one day before visiting the museum & had a delicious sandwich, the Chicken Koukou. Great quick lunch before a day spent walking around!

Cafe was cute & cozy. However it's really packed & tables aren't always available. Great cafe for brunch. Love the aesthetics & the food was great! Close to the Art Gallery as well.
