I finally made it to this lovely coffee shop after hearing about it for a while, and I’m so glad I did! It’s such a cozy spot, with outdoor seating that’s perfect for enjoying the sunshine with a coffee. The desserts are incredible – especially the Basque cake, which is my all-time favourite. Honestly, I don’t think it could be made any better than here! Their chai latte is also absolutely amazing. Can’t wait to go back!
