Truly excellent coffee. Worth a visit for just coffee, the food is a bonus.

Such a great spot-this place has quickly become one of my go-to favorites. The coffee is consistently excellent, the salads are fresh & flavorful, & the sandwiches are so well made & satisfying.

I also love that you can grab a glass of rosé, which makes it perfect whether you're stopping by for a casual coffee or meeting friends for something a little more relaxed & social.

The atmosphere is warm & inviting, & the whole experience just feels effortless & enjoyable every time. Definitely a place you'll want to keep coming back to. Ask for Jorge if you're there, he s the best!

I'm just in love with the biscuit! I didn't enjoy the veggie sandwich : it was overpriced, not very tasty, & the portion was small. I've tried the cappuccino, iced coffee, & some teas, & they're all pretty good overall. But please, never get rid of the biscuit ahah

Mediocre & over priced. The pastry (bread pudding) was inedibly sweet. Omelettes & coffee were ok. 75$ for two for breakfast after tip & an upsell on $12 glasses of OJ. Slow service.

I ordered omelets here, & it took about 20 minutes to get the first one. The second omelet arrived another 15 minutes later. The service definitely needs improvement. Nothing stood out-coffee & croissant were just average.'
