    Amazing coffee shop. The decor is out of this world. Perfect small place with a unique vibe for good coffee and to relax. We had the latte which was perfect in terms of the coffee used and proportions. The chai latte we had was perfectly made. And the latte had nice art which is always a plus. Clean place with friendly employees. We tried there chocolate cookie and it was light yet soft. Would definitely return and next time bring a book.

    Beautiful and elegant interior design! Located in the center of old San Juan, this café is a go to rest stop if you are tired of walking around. They welcome you with unique decor, varieties of books, and unique coffee and desserts, at a reasonable price. The highlight of this cafe is its forward thinking message it's trying to convert through the bathroom door signs and other decors you can find inside. Love it!

    Probably the best café ever. This place is incredibly mysterious and elegantly decorated inside with anything you could imagine in a magical world. Come and be Alice in the Wonderland.

    They are a cafe with books and reading areas. The fruit juice is tasty. They also have storytelling for kids each week. I really love this cafe.

    Local coffee roaster tucked into a beautiful old San Juan building -- high ceilings, exposed wood…read morebeams, and an arched menu board that gives the whole space a warm, artisanal feel without trying too hard. Grabbed an iced latte and an iced tea to go: the latte was smooth and well-balanced, not over-roasted like a lot of tourist-zone coffee shops nearby, and the iced tea was refreshing after walking the cobblestone streets. The menu keeps it simple -- espresso drinks, paninis (Cuatro Sombras, Yauco, Viejo San Juan), open toast with avocado & egg or salmon, and a solid breakfast lineup with guava butter toast and dulce de papaya oatmeal that lean into the Puerto Rican flavor profile. Loved seeing local sodas and juices in the fridge case alongside the usual water and La Croix. Staff moved efficiently even with a small crowd at the counter. Good spot to duck into for a quality coffee break in Old San Juan -- feels like a real local roaster rather than a chain, and the space itself is worth a look even if you're just passing through.

    Was doing some walking around Old San Juan and wanted to get coffee and a quick bite. Found this…read moreplace through Yelp and with the good reviews, had to try it out. My sister and I got the same sandwich, Cuatro Sombras Panini and it was delicious! A bit heavy on the garlic aioli but it gave it a lot of flavor I got and iced caramel latte, I like when I can taste the coffee more than the flavoring and it was a perfect balance. My sister got their iced mocha. She likes her coffee sweeter than I do but she still really liked her drink too. The reason I'm giving this place 4 stars is because all the tables were a bit dirty. It wasn't busy when we first walked in but we still had to wipe down our own table
