Cozy Chocolaterie with superb quality.
In my opinion, it's the place to go in the city's centre. It's a small shop with only a few tables but you should find a seat without waiting for too long. Staff is young, very friendly and are well informed about their products. Their coffee is alright but pricey (3,80€ for black coffee, though it's not like the competitors near them are any cheaper) and you get a small piece of their own chocolate (more on that later).

I finally visited this café at the end of June this year. It was a hot afternoon, and I ordered the caramel hot chocolate. The taste wasn’t very strong, and since it was served hot on a warm day, I couldn’t fully enjoy it. The place itself is quite small but cozy. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the visit pleasant.
Prices are a bit on the higher side, so keep...
