We had a great time at Uchi, the sandwiches and matcha latte were absolutely amazing! Everything was tasty and surprisingly filling. You can tell the food is made with care. That said, the cafe was very busy during our visit, and the atmosphere felt a bit hectic. The staff were clearly working hard and constantly on the move, but because the seating is quite close together and the walkways are narrow, it didn’t feel very relaxing. If you’re looking for a calm, leisurely brunch, I’d recommend coming for a proper sit-down lunch instead of grabbing sandwiches like we did. Still, the food is definitely worth trying!
