Belvárosi kocsma, a kellemesebb fajtából. Finom falatok korcsolyának, nincs üvöltő zene, jó italvàlaszték, kedves felszolgálás.

Strongly recommend Chocolate croissant! There are many college students studying here, so be quiet! Free WiFi and power sockets are available.

Nice coffee, but the experience was ruined by the rude staff. The waiters were dismissive and made it feel like customers were an inconvenience. A shame, because the place itself has potential — but attitude matters. Wouldn’t come back.
