Nice atmosphere and excellent coffee. I ordered a filtered coffee and a matcha cookie, which was…read moredelicious. I had seen recommendations saying this was a calm and quiet place to enjoy a coffee, but unfortunately that wasn't my experience since it was very crowded and noisy when I visited. Still, the quality of the coffee and food made the visit worth it!

The decor is beautiful and the staff are very friendly. We ate at Tamper! for breakfast and the only thing I'd say that I would've like would be some savoury options. The breakfast menu is very sweet and although very tasty it would be nice to have a mix. Perhaps Avocado on toast? Something like that. I'd definitely come back, the coffee is beautiful, the food is great and the staff are lovely!

It's probably more expensive than your regular laundry place but it's really worth it if you got…read morework to do or you just don't want to be bored while waiting for your clothes to get clean. First of all, their machines are all perfectly working and there's a guy monitoring them and observing what's happening so nobody pees in the machines (yes i've heard that this happens at your usual laundry place) So yes this place is really clean and even has a bathroom. Next, it has wi-fi so you can study using the internet of work on your stuff while waiting for your the next spin cycle or the dryer. Last but definitely not the least, the have a snack/food bar where yo can order different drinks, sandwiches, cookies, and other snacks. I really love this store's concept. It lets you settle down, relax, and eat while doing your laundry. Horay.

What a wonderful idea!…read more We dropped by here for the coffee to escape the rain after a brief market trip on our weekend away. We had the obligatory look on yelp for our coffee hit and assumed that this was just a hipster place with an interesting name. Well it is IS a hipster place with an interesting name but unlike most it actually lives up to the promise. We were very surprised to find a full laundrette inside in pristine colours with the main floor decked out as a trendy coffee bar. The place had people working or relaxing whilst some waited for their washing to be done. The coffee itself was average but at 1 Euro one cannot complain. They had free wifi and nice places to sit whilst keeping the ambience of a cool coffee den. I have no idea why other places are not doing this, it really makes going to the laundress pleasurable and productive. They even picked up our passing trade. Great idea wonderful execution.
