Can’t say enough about my great experience here today (first time visit). We had been walking around sightseeing and it was SO HOT. We needed a place to relax with AC and grab a bite to eat. Perfect spot! Wish we had our laptops with us we’d stay a few hours and get some work done.

Coffee: I got the iced caramella (caramel latte) for 25k kip which was delicious! Food: I got the chicken pesto sandwich but got it on Focaccia instead of the baguette and it was to die for! Must try it! 38k kip. My bf got the breakfast burrito for 33k kip and said it was ok but not great.

Slightly more pricey than other local places but not pricey by US standards and so worth it for the atmosphere: cold AC, lots of seating with some regular tables and some cozy chairs, lots of outlets accessible and WiFi for working, free water/refills from a filtered water cooler.

Also: staff very friendly and spoke good English. Even able to accommodate my request for a different bread and no olives!

I will definitely check out their other locations...

Pretty good, almost same as american prices, Ruben around 48,000 kip, pretty good chesse, love the chiken pesto and the new yorker, can't say much about the salad, but the banana chocolate chip muffin was decent, a little too sweet, the lemonade ice tea was good.

They have bread just don't look fresh, nice place to bringe a date on a breakfast or lunch, that's about it.

Anything else... nice location can see the traffic if your...
