Only stopped for a tea and a P, and was most pleased by the service (of the tea). Will happily revisit.

Great place to snack on your own, or there is always some staff member willing to chat. The menu price is cheap, the products good.

A non-food cafe with nice drinks and a welcoming atmosphere. No problem to bring food in and eat it, just they can't sell it so the bakery next door is good to match to tea or coffee and a chat.

Nice place with nice people working there. But the language barrier was there. At least they were friendly
