After looking at the reviews, I thought it would be the best coffee experience of my life. Unfortunately it turned to be the worse. The shop itself is so small and guests have no opportunity to sit around a table looking at each other.

The music, the lights, the plants, and the custom "Neongrut" sign bring a new and special style to the neighborhood. However, the true charm is in between the notes, the bulbs, the leaves, and the sips. Neongrut is novel and futuristic, but also grounded on the fundamentals of good vibes, genuine care for others,...
