Perfect for IG post but dont expect to be wowed by their coffee.
Was told this place have good coffee and their drip bag set was pretty good so decided to make a trip out there for afternoon tea and have dinner near the coffee shop as well. It was hot and rainy that day so what better than trying out their 2 signature cold drinks. One was called "Gone nuts" had condensed milk, peanut butter and coconut milk. The other one was "Salty and Wet" which was coffee with preserved salted lemon.
The one with peanut butter was seriously a let down. It didnt taste like anything, not sweet, not nutty, not coconuty. just coffee with milk and some chalky texture. It was seriously a mess and not enjoyable at all. Salty and Wet was better, Citrus and coffee do match pretty well together.

Even cooling it down to room temperature did not taste or smelled like what they described.
We were quite fed up with the quality of the coffee served and rather paying for another cup and wait for dinner time, we decided to leave and have an early...
Read moreI’ve been here twice. All good with the coffee. They got unique variety. This time a kiddo with ten holes on his ears insisted that I couldn’t have the Timor Leste drip coffee with a side of milk just because I couldn’t. Walked out and will never come back again. Typical new Hong Kong 弟弟 so cocksure of their stupidity and low EQ. Could have told me that he’d give me a side of milk but that I’d try it black first. LMAO. The rest of staff...
Read moreTruly disappointed!!!!!! The worst dining experience in my neighbourhood. I just finished my lunch and I have been wanting to try this cafe, the pistachio creme brulee caught my eyes. When I ordered the food, I got told the minimum spending is a drink. Yet the creme brulee costs way more than the espresso. What I got told is just hell NO, YOU NEED TO ORDER A DRINK. With this kind of service, I am not sure how...
