In addition to a relaxed vibe, they have indoor and outdoor seating and have good working WiFi. I highly recommend this coffee shop and without a doubt come here again for the delicious bruschetta. Este cafécito es una joya en la pared! Tiene el mejor café y ofrece snacks saludables. Sirven almuerzo y desayuno, pero también tiene una variedad de repostería. Mi orden que normalmente pido es el set de pan bruschetta con tomate, perejil y hummus- es el combo más sabroso que he probado! También recomiendo el latte de bergamota y la variedad de tés que ofrecen. El ambiente es súper relajado y tiene una onda muy amigable y hipster. Este lugar tiene muy buen decor y arte que lo destacan al igual que el excepcional servicio. También tienen una área en el patio para tomar cafecito y WiFi buenísimo. ¡Yo recomiendo este café y sin duda alguna regresaré por esas riquísimas bruschettas!

Lol The staff were extremely friendly and very accommodating. I ordered a cup of tea (pronounced te) and a muffin to go. I hung around and took care of my internet biz first. The staff offered me a tiny complimentary chocolate cake and I loved the place even more since chocolate is my bff. I conversed with the staff a bit with them teaching me a few Spanish words and me teaching them English. The cafe was very clean, quaint and very cozy. You can definitely enjoy breakfast and unwind before you start your day. If I lived in the area, this would be a local go to spot.

They serve their coffee strong and with a delicious small bar of dark chocolate (73% cacao) and absolutely delicious! This quaint cafe is perfect for a number of different cafe-type activities including, but not limited to, breakfast on a weekend outside in their nice patio, a work meeting or working solo with your computer. One of the many good things about this cafe is its super cute, picturesque cafe style. Everyone who passes by, lingers for a second outside of the large windows before continuing on their way. The service is good and quick and their internet is fast! The ambiance is relaxed, warm and has the perfect amount of white noise and alternative music to be conducive to working. They also have a variety of tasty pastries (I recommend their galletas surtidas) as well as lunch and dinner options. For breakfast, I hands down recommend their granola and yogurt. It is a perfect weekend breakfast treat, accompanied by one of their delicious cafe-lattes. yum! Tip: Despite the delicious looking cake sign, I do not recommend their carrot cake. They have so many other great pastries I wouldn't opt for this one. If it is warm, sit outside with a nice juice or coffee or pick up something to go and walk through the park (it is a block away).

We arrived a few minutes before our reservation and they are very strict on time so we spent the time taking photos on the lovely street the cafe is situated on. Once our reservation time came we were escorted to the private room we reserved and was served the most wonderful tea service. We pre paid so we had multiple snack towers, pots of tea and individual drinks. Everything about the service was wonderful, then we got to wander around the house and take photos afterwards. I loved everything about the experience but will caution you, the stairs are steep and thin so take your time and be careful!

Outside of the check in, table service was very friendly and attentive. Drinks were fresh, fun, and delicious! I really enjoyed the raspberry juice and the teas came in such cute teapots. I tried one of their holiday specials as well, which was a fun and delicious grinch drink with cinnamon and chai. Food was very average, if not below average. My parents and I ordered the avocado toast, Alice's dress salad, and happy day. I would skip on the avocado toast, I thought the bread could have been toasted more (but the bowl of yogurt with chia seeds and jam that came with it was delicious) The salad had a lot of large lettuce pieces, but was fresh and didn't skimp out on the fruit or cheese. Happy day came with cute boxes but was really just a simple adult version of a happy meal. The highlight of the spot is of course the decor! We were seated in the 'Mad Hatter's Room', which was fun and quirky, but I'd prefer being seated in one of the higher floors if I were to go back. After we ate, we walked up a beautifully done staircase that led to a fun hallway of mirrors and then a gift shop, all of which had great photo opportunities.

First, this place is OPEN as of Fall 2022 (early summer in Chile) when I visited (late November…read more2022). I loved this place. Not only does this wine bar have the most extensive by-the-glass list I found anywhere in Santiago, they are also one of only two wine bars that keeps all of their wines in a temperature controlled area (very important--as most places don't have AC in Chile). All of the food I had was great--but my top favorites were the applewood smoked salmon, the loco plate, and the short ribs. I really enjoyed being able to try new wines from small, boutique producers in Chile (this is something you can only do in a few places in Santiago) and get recommendations from the really knowledgeable owner as well as the fact that they include a little tag on each glass so that you can keep track of what each wine in front of you is, if you do a flight of half glasses of wine like I did. The two best places for wines-by-the-glass and the best selection of wines from smaller producers are Bocanariz and Barrica94. No wine lover should leave Santiago without visiting both of these places.

Terrible service. And the food was mediocre at best…read more We visited with a party of 6. 5/6 people spoke Spanish in our group. We ordered a bottle of sparkling wine to share with 4 people and 2 beers for the other two. We ordered burgers, steak and I believe a pasta. After the meal we were ready to commit to more drinking and so we asked for the wine menu. After narrowing it down, we asked the server, male with a beard, light complexion with a nose ring, in Spanish "we want to buy a bottle of wine, but if you have this bottle open (since it's available by the glass) can we try it to make sure we like it before we commit to it" The server immediately rolled his eyes before turning around and beginning to walk away. One of our party said "hey, I saw that". He looked at her and walked away. Then he told our initial server about it who gave us a dirty look. He brings over the glass of wine to me, the person who didn't ask for it. And I asked for the check. He knew we were leaving because of his poor attitude.
