⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It had been a while since my last visit, and I was delighted to find the music volume turned down, making it so comfortable to relax. The croissants were sold out, but they offered to provide freshly baked ones if I waited about 10 minutes, so I decided to give it a try. The result? Absolutely delicious! The Americano was consistently excellent as always. What a wonderful place! I’ll definitely come back again.
I recently visited a new-style café in Batumi, Georgia. The only downside I noticed right away was the music selection—it felt more like a nightclub playlist, and the volume was a bit loud, which didn’t quite match the chill café atmosphere I was expecting. If they improved this, I’d give it a solid five stars! That aside, I was really impressed with the place. The interior has high ceilings and a spacious, open layout, making it a comfortable spot to relax. I ordered an Americano and a cappuccino, both of which were authentic and delicious! The croissant, in particular, stood out—crisp and flaky, it reminded me of the ones I had in Italy. I also tried the cheesecake, which was good but a bit too sweet for my taste. I’d prefer it with a little less sugar. Free self-service water is a nice touch. The seating consists of bench-style chairs that are super comfortable—the chairs are comfortable too—and the wooden tables are sturdy with no wobbling, perfect for anyone working on a laptop. Looking out the window, you can see greenery, which added to the calm vibe, even on a rainy afternoon. The place was about 40%full when I visited, busy but not overcrowded. The staff were professional and attentive, not at all the laid-back attitude you sometimes see in Georgia, which I appreciated. The fact that it’s pet-friendly is a huge bonus! I’ll definitely be...
Read moreThere is no need to be so rude to a tourist who does not know that using wifi is not allowed on ipads.
The sign that is placed on the wall does not eventually communicate the message efficiently enough (to me and another person next to me) as it was a sort of pictogram saying laptops are not allowed 💻 📵 in addition ironically enough on the opposite of the wall the total opposite of that message was placed in roman letters saying it was ‘a laptop free zone’; making room for even more confusion.
I, with my tablet, found myself facing a staff within seconds after buying a cup of coffee; he was standing in front of me and another person, yelling in Georgian-English and with that body language of his, I personally felt so offended and dumbfounded…me, repeating what he said to me, with the aim of making things clearer in understanding/deciphering his communication, was not easy for my part. But it was enough for the impatient staff with his not-so-easy-to-understand language, to start yelling at us in the cafe. (?) 😟
So, it made me think 🤔:Understanding him and the sign was a struggle like it was to many others...But eventually it is not about the sign nor about the language: where is that good old Kindness and patience?! especially in the Service sector + touristic places, one should think of this.☹️ it was my first and last visit to this cafe because running a business is not about the products nor decoration. It is about customer experience.
By now, we know its a thing here in Batumi, that using Wifi is not allowed to connect it with personal Laptops. But there is also no need to have such energy in cafes where a tourist feels unwelcome as a result of such an unpleasant attitude by the staff.
I hope this will serve you as a...
