SECOND FLOOR CAFE Nangang Station — Restaurant in Nangang District

Mixed Bag at This Spot The vibe here’s sleek and modern. But the experience leaning toward “miss” for the price. The Good Stuff That set meal with free-flow buns and toast are d best..Winner. Soft, warm, and not overly sweet spread. The chowder soup was quite creamy.

The omelette is good but could be better in flavor and consistency. I like that the brunch section includes 2 kinds of drinks, I chose coffee and juice and both are good.
