"A lovely and calm little cafe tucked away by the city centre. Love the new matcha menu! Highly recommend the pistachio matcha. Lovely staff and friendly service. Cute cosy decor. Little cafe counter tucked in with a nice quiet shop."

"Perfect lil cafe for someone who doesn’t like the classic busy and bustling cafes. It’s part cafe, part store & florist! It has a lovely and bright atmosphere as soon as you walk in! Food was delicious and the staff are so nice and friendly! Would definitely recommend!"

"The coffee and bread were delicious. Although the staff was so busy for preparing coffee and food, I waited for taking the previous dish back for a while, but it wasn’t so long, maybe about 1-2 mins? Atmosphere and space are all good! Here is a good place to take a rest or talk with friends!"
