Café fantastique. Les baristas & propriétaires sont très fiers de leur travail, & c'est très justifié. Expérience authentique & artisanale. Service personable & nourriture délicieux. Les pâtisseries sont fantastiques & un peu sucré à mon goût. Le café est très bien présenté & un peu acide à mon goût. C'est difficile à dire, mais il y a aussi un très belle ambiance de communauté dans le café. Petite note qu'on m'est venu à la table me demander si je voulais commander quelque chose alors que j'attendais un ami 5-10min alors que ce n'était pas très occupé. Selon moi, je sentais qu'il y avait un peu de pression, mais je comprends aussi que le flanâge ne serait pas bon pour le business non plus. Je reviendrai certainement, surtout pour essayer les paninis qui sentaient très bon.

I had an incredible experience at this café. The cappuccino was simply amazing-smooth with perfect consistency & a beautifully foamy top. The light dusting of chocolate was a nice touch that made it even better. The chocolate croissant was fresh & buttery, the perfect pairing with my coffee. I also loved the thoughtful gesture of being brought a glass of iced water alongside everything. One of the highlights was the unique & pleasant classical music playing inside. It really added to the cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Special shout-out to Alex, the nicest barista ever! Their service made the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend stopping by!
