⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 stars all round... why, you ask? Because it genuinely deserved it.
We're on holiday from the good old UK & were looking for somewhere to sit back, relax, & do a bit of people-watching. This place delivered exactly that, & so much more.
The service was fantastic, the food was excellent, & the drinks were spot on. The staff were friendly, attentive, & made us feel very welcome throughout our visit.
A big thank you to everyone there - we had a great time & will definitely be back the next time we're in town!

Great place. I only wish you had filter coffee so I can be in & out quickly.

I want to love this place so badly, I keep coming back hoping it will be better but it's always the same disorganized chaotic experience.

Maybe if I ordered food & sat down rather than trying to get drinks to go it would be better.

The coffee is fantastic! The smoothies are $8.00 cups of milk with ice & a whisper of fruit. But now they have affogato so I will give them one more chance.

Very tasty sandwiches. Great service.
I returned 2 days later & found that my comment was taken into consideration. Things were fixed. Thank you very much.
All the best to the chef & to Alex.

You know its a good cafe when their only problem is that they don't have enough coffee machines to keep up with demand! Keep it up! NDG

Very nice place, very delicious food, prices are very affordable, & I tried the Chai with pistachio milk for the first time in this place, it's a must try.

I'll absolutely come back again & again.

Absolutely dynamite mix of Portuguese & Greek sandwiches/salads, plus coffee & breakfast items. Plus cocktails. & it's all...affordable?! The staff is super friendly, & we got a chance to chat with the owner, who went over the top in making sure we were taken care of. & had a great sense of humor. All around great experience!
