From the moment you step inside, the aroma of freshly ground coffee and buttery croissants wraps around you like a cashmere scarf. The interior? Think sun-drenched nooks with velvet armchairs, vintage bookshelves, and fairy lights that twinkle like captured stars. It’s Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. I ordered the lavender honey latte and the avocado toast with poached eggs and truffle oil—and let me tell you, my taste buds threw a party. The latte was silky, floral, and perfectly balanced (not a hint of soapiness, which is a lavender crime I’ve suffered elsewhere). The toast? Crispy sourdough, creamy avocado, eggs cooked to runny perfection, and that truffle oil… chef’s kiss. Portions are generous but not overwhelming, and every ingredient screams quality. The staff?

I found the food delicious, both of the times, with a good presentation. The atmosphere, also, is very chill with good music in background and the design is very pretty. Unfortunately, I’m not entirely satisfied with the service. The first time, two different people asked me twice if I had ordered. The second time, I waited for a while for my order and, also, the waitress cleared up my table immediately, leaving me with an empty table.
