"Coffee is delicious! I was a little disappointedwith the muffin since it tasted store bought and not really homemade like the menu suggested. The croissant was good. We also had cappuccino and ended up buying their home roasted coffee beans for home."

"This place is so cozy and the staff is incredibly kind! I especially love that they speak English — such a relief when you’re still learning German. The coffee is absolutely divine! I’m usually not a big fan of oat milk lattes, but they make it in a way that’s honestly addictive. So delicious. If you’re looking for a warm, welcoming spot to hang out and enjoy a great cup of coffee, I 100% recommend it — especially if you’re curious about trying oat milk in your coffee. I still remember the barista telling me, “Once you try it, there’s no going back,” and she was totally right — it’s been my go-to ever since!"

"Excellent coffee and excellent people. Cortado tastes naturally sweet and full-bodied toward the end. All the pastry and cakes look delicious. Unfortunately I don’t have time to enjoy the cozy rustic atmosphere, but walking 20min round trip was definitely worth it."

"This café is a true haven for coffee enthusiasts. We tried the flat white and the filter coffee, both of which were exceptional. The cookies were freshly baked and perfectly complemented the quality of the coffee. I also had the granola yogurt, which was beautifully presented and truly delightful."

"I was here with my girlfriend. This cafe is a cozy place to enjoy coffee with your friends or family. It is located near the cathedral in the Dutch quarter, so take the opportunity to visit this lovely neighborhood. We highly recommend you try the Chai Latte, which delighted us so much that we bought a whole box of Chai Prana."
