Such a cute café with great coffee & amazing pastries. I think it looked better before the renovation, & I miss the restaurant next door that used to be part of Helico. It was beautiful & great for working or meeting friends in the morning.

Nous étions à la recherche d'un café pour un petit moment de détente. Arrivés sur place, nous étions un peu perdus, la seule indication du café est le nom écrit en petit dans la deuxième porte.

Le local est très petit mais il y a de la place disponible pour s'asseoir. Le café est bien entretenu & propre, mais les chaises sont pas mal abîmées & tachées.

J'ai commandé un matcha latté ainsi qu'un croissant aux amandes. Le service était bon, rapide & professionnel. J'ai été agréablement surpris qu'il y ait un service au table dans un petit commerce comme celui-ci.

Une fois mes articles arrivés, j'ai été impressionné par la qualité de mon matcha latte ainsi que le beau souci du détail du design, il était délicieux. Par contre, mon croissant est arrivé froid & sec, j'ai dû faire la demande pour qu'il le réchauffe. Une fois chaud, il était délicieux & gourmand.

La musique du café apporte une ambiance calme & détente, ce qui est recherché d'un café, mais tout a été chamboulé au moment où deux clients sont arrivés avec leurs chiens dans le café. Mon angoisse a augmenté & un gros inconfort s'est installé lorsque les deux chiens se sont mis à me fixer manger mon croissant à moins d'un mètre de moi.

Mon expérience était géniale jusqu'au moment où l'ambiance de tranquillité a été gâchée. Les animaux devraient être interdits à l'intérieur d'un café. À cause de cet évènement, je suis ambivalente à l'idée de revenir.
