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.
Came in on a rainy Sunday & the server was friendly, hospitable & helped with our treat & coffee/tea selection! Lovely café with delicious Arabic cookies, coffee & tea.
The coffee here is excellent! A hidden gem. Some seating is available inside if you're lucky. & the almond croissant & plain croissants warmed up were just divine...

Perfect place, perfect food, perfect staff, what else to say? Went to try their cheesecake, but I don't even think we can call this cheesecake, but this is so wildly superior to any cheesecake I ever had, it's simply something else. Fresh, tasty, generous, loved everything about it. Tried the simple chocolat & pistachio, but delicious.
Great atmosphere 👌 especially late evenings, as it opens till late so the vibe is amazing.
They have perfect cheese cakes so creamy & rich in flavour & goes perfect with the toppings.
They have amazing lattes too.
Definitely try other flavours too... ❤?
Very friendly staff. Atmosphere is great too. Lots of room. I appreciate the space in the back for people like me who work from coffee shops every so often.
Absolutely lucky to find this gem. The food is delicious, the service is wonderful & the atmosphere is so calm & appealing. Definitely gonna be coming back often. Back this business up guys & ladies! It's worth it!!
