Overall, San Sebastian Cafe is described as a cozy spot with a variety of seating that makes it ideal for studying, working, or chatting with friends. The cheesecake, often with pistachio or biscoff toppings, and the coffee are highlighted as standout treats, though some reviews note price and occasional service delays. The vibe is friendly and relaxed, inviting long visits, with many praising the staff and the comfortable atmosphere while a few mentions point to cleanliness or cost as caveats.
The cafe is cosy the owner is nice & the service is good. Normally I order a cappuccino & it doesnt take that long. I read a comment asking why there is a big Syrian flag & honesly why not having one if the cafe is syrian owned! If that flag was an LGBTQ one no one would be annoyed. I dont understand why ppl always need to find something to hate on. I personally had a good experience & never was uncomfortable everyone was welcomed. So sad to hear ppl complaining about the flag.
Magnifique endroit. Le service est excellent & sans faute & le personnel est super gentil. Le café les gâteaux sont excellents & succulents. Je vous recommande cette place, c'est vraiment à essayer vous allez l'adopter directement!
Very cozy, with a variety of different seating options, it's perfect for both studying/working & chatting with friends. We ordered the cheesecake & it did not disappoint! Additionally, the matcha latte was very well made & tasted excellent (coming from a matcha connoisseur).
Came here to study & will say its a perfect place to study with friends. Good amount of seating with a considerable selection of drinks. The drinks are pretty decent, not the best but not the worst. Its a pretty cozy atmosphere - not too loud. Will come back!

Loved it! What an incredible experience. The coffee was delicious, mango smoothie was amazing, the desserts were fantastic, (cheesecake highly recommended) & the wonderful servers, wow! Thank you for the great time! 👏👏
Café sympathique dans le centre, offrant boissons & gâteaux.
Le fameux cheesecake est bon mais cher pour ce qu'il est. Servis avec un nappage il n'en reste pas moins correct.
Les boissons sont diversifiées & bien réalisées.
Le gâteau au fromage est excellent & le service est toujours impeccable, la personne au comptoir est tellement souriante. C'est un plaisir d'y revenir.
Amazing experience! The cheesecake was soft & tender, & not too heavy! We combined it with the milk chocolate & surprisingly it wasn't overwhelming. The coffee is superb as well! I highly recommend if you're looking for a chill vibe & great cheesecake.
I wanted to like this place. The vibe is nice. Coffee is expensive & my goodness it took forever to get a simple cappuccino. I will gladly try this place again some time but until then, I suggest the company work to make service better. No one in front of me coffee took 25 minutes.
