Such an absolute little sanctuary in a busy city. It started raining and I popped in son my way to a different coffee shop, now I won’t go anywhere else! It quiet, pure and great and friendly staff. I took a seat at the window and watched the busy street while in a warm and quiet coffee shop. Delicious biscuits and very smooth coffee.

This five star review surprised even me. Deeply excited to see all these smaller cafe’s popping up and thriving around Cape Town. Beautiful aesthetics, good light (you know I’m a fan), GREAT coffee, and 10/10 service. I’ve been back maybe 25 times since this original review - a coffee space that delivers flawlessly time and time again!
