Description
Inside, the spacious layout offers a calm retreat from the surrounding bustle. The kitchen turns out fresh breakfast sandwiches alongside croissants filled with kunafa or Nutella. While single-origin brews are on hand, the coffee menu leans heavily into dessert territory with latte options like Biscoff, pistachio, and honey cinnamon. The decor is highly aesthetic, though reviews point to inconsistent drink quality and high prices for the specialty pastries.
