El café es muy bueno, te atienden bien, la comida está rica y tienen variedad de panecitos y bebidas. El lugar es pequeño, es más para pasar rápido pero creo que ese es el encanto. El lugar tiene un diseño lindo y es agradable. Lo recomiendo.

El lugar es mini pero está muy bello y lo importante es que el café está muy rico, al igual que sus frappes. El precio es adecuadísimo. Vale mucho la pena ↕

To me, a cappuccino is an 8 ounce drink made of two espresso shots and milk foam. When the cup you use is so large, since the volume of the espresso shots is constant, you fill the cup with lots of milk. So, the drink becomes coffee flavored milk instead of a cappuccino. That's why you need to use smaller cups: 8 ounce cups.

Los precios son razonables pero el personal no está 100 por ciento capacitado como baristas. El tamaño del flat white es erróneo y la preparación del mismo igual. Pero supongo que obtienes lo que pagas.

Me encanta ir a este lugar por una bebida y algo de comer. De verdad bastante recomendable. Es como un lugarcito secreto. No están en el menú pero prueben las tortas.

Excelente calidad y servicio. El precio es súper accesible y el sabor 10/10. Vi que hay dos malas reseñas y sinceramente las dos son ridículas por las que calificaron este lugar con una ⭐. De mis cafeterías favoritas.
