Une excellente découverte ! Le matcha est absolument incroyable, d'une qualité rare sur le marché. Côté gourmandise, le cookie est une merveille : fin, hyper doux en bouche & super moelleux.
L'accueil est tout aussi parfait grâce à deux baristas super sympas & accueillantes.
C'est l'endroit idéal pour se poser le matin ou pour travailler : le lieu est calme, les gens parlent doucement & l'ambiance générale est vraiment au rendez-vous. Mention spéciale pour la musique qui met dans un bon mood sans être trop forte.

Je recommande pleinement !! ☕?🍪

Un accueil exclusivement en anglais, ce que je trouve inadéquat dans un environnement où on essaie de protèger la langue française.

On nous demande un pourboire avant le service, ce qui me pose grande question. Je laisse donc un 15% espérant un service à venir de qualité. Malheureusement, le flatwhite commandé n'est pas si bon ni si texturé & nous devons aller le chercher juste après nous être installé & les tables ne sont débarrassées que lorsque de nouveaux clients s'y installe.

Je recommande de ne pas laissé de pourboire avant d'avoir été servie & d'avoir terminé sa consommation.

Not terrible coffee, but clearly not up there with the best.

Super rude staff, I've come here two days running & both days they've been hostile for no apparent reason. I got told off because I didn't specify on ordering that my coffee wasn't takeaway on the first day, then shouted at aggressively for standing outside before opening on day 2 as the waiter wanted to put a sign outside where I was standing. Maybe it's because I'm a tourist & I don't speak French? Anyway, the coffee & pastries are good & it opens earliest in the area, so depending on your priorities/tolerance for hostility could still be worth a visit

Stopped in for a quick coffee & snack. This place was great! The barista was attentive & made the coffees just right. Also got a carrot muffin that was soft & sweet, it hit the spot. The ambience is nice & quiet, seems like a good place to get work done or just enjoy a moment. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area!
