★★★★★a year agoThe guy here was so easy to talk to, let us smell his new mandarin coffee beans also. He made us an iced oat milk flat white- a strong and I do kind of which I had gone for a latte but my boyfriend loves the strength of the flat white. Regardless- this was gorgeous. I also loved the soap dispenser- I had only ever seen these on dragons den.

★★★★★a year agoSuch a lovely, atmospheric café — quiet, cozy, and perfect for relaxing. I had a large latte with a cookie, and it was absolutely delicious. The guy working there was so friendly and polite, and everything was prepared really quickly. I was especially happy that he spoke English. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a peaceful spot to unwind!
