Moving out a bit from top central area that I usually visit in weekends, I was really happy to find…read morethis place for a chance. And I have to admit that I wasn't disappointed at all. The location is quiet enough, and the atmosphere is a very familiar one. The couches offer you a very cosy feeling. (tip: the places on the balcony are awesome) The biggest plus of the place are the cakes. They are just great. Unfortunately I can't say the same thing about the coffee. That's one of the reasons why is only a 4 star, and not 5. Usually with a tasty cake goes a good coffee... Anyways, it has to be said that the service system they use is also a bit strange, but I won't ruin the surprise, I will let you to find out how it works. So, long story short, sometimes is usefull to leave your comfort zone, and try some new not so central places. Since my first visit here, I also returned couple of times, and I always bought a friend with me. Take your favourite book, or music, take a sit, have a cake, and enjoy the quiet rain on the huge windows ;)

There was plenty of seating inside, and they even have a back patio with more seating. The cafe is full of old relics and vintage furniture, which gives it a cozy vibe. The ambience was very relaxed. I had the caramel cheesecake and scrambled eggs. The cheesecake might have been the best cheesecake I've ever had! The scrambled eggs were delicious - with fresh salad and goat cheese. My husband had a croissant and cappuccino - and was notably stealing off my plate!
