A unique, independent café with the charm of a European bistro—absolutely love it! The atmosphere is fantastic, and watching the stylish flow of customers adds to the experience. It even makes you feel more refined yourself. Very comfortable and highly recommended!

A nice little shop that serves high-quality coffee and provides a perfect atmosphere to study. We came here after lunch and found seats immediately. Almost everyone there was studying or doing some type of work so it was relatively quiet in the shop. We ordered the Cafe Latte ($170 NT), Caffe Milkshake ($220 NT), and the Lemon Pound Cake ($140 NT). All of the drinks tasted great. The pound cake was good too, just wish it was bigger for the price. Overall, would recommend coming here if you’re looking for a quiet place to study that serves great coffee. Will be back in the future.
