I went to this place three times already, to check if my previous experiences were just unlucky days or if the place itself wasn’t that good. Unfortunately, I might say that, in my opinion, this place is overrated. The restaurant/cafe itself is beautiful and cozy, especially the glasshouse outside, and that’s the only thing I liked about the place.

I'm not a coffee person but I have loved all the cold drinks, snacks, pastries, and sandwiches I've tried here.
