One of my favorite café to read or hang out with friends. Everyone working there is sooo nice & the food/drinks are amazing! It's very cozy, warm & welcoming. I always take a Persian Fog & a Ferni, but they also have really good tea options :)

I would definitely go to this cafe again. Hardly you can find both food & vibe in a decent level of satisfaction. Yes it is a little pricy & I would like it more if they didn't cut bread into very small bites. As a persian, id rather have barbari bread in bigger sizes beside my dish
