Toujours agréable de venir ici! Beaucoup d'options végétariennes/véganes pour manger. J'ai beaucoup apprécié la slush au citron/la limonade en slush.

Went for the first time last Friday & ordered an Affogato. I was asked by the server with short reddish hair if i wanted one or two shots of espresso which I'm normally not asked in other cafes. She then got a tub of ice cream from the freezer & added 2 shots of warm espresso & the ice cream just floated in it! When i asked them to add hot espresso, she tried to argue that it's meant to be that way! Thankfully the guy who was there was helpful & tried to rectify it but again added one shot of warm espresso & i asked him to add another hot shot. Staff need to be trained on how to make a proper Affogato as it was really not worth all this trouble. He was, however, nice enough to offer me a cookie as well. The cafe itself was nice with nice outdoor space.
