The owners, especially Pablo, are celebrated for deep knowledge, passion, and attentive, personalized service, frequently guiding customers through varieties and preparation techniques to match individual tastes; several reviews note multi-generational coffee expertise and informative conversations as standout features. Atmosphere is described as modern, welcoming, and focused on coffee, with positive mentions of friendly staff and a unique, cozy environment, though one reviewer mentions "the decor isn't anything special but who cares with coffee so good." The menu also includes high-quality sandwiches and pastries, with multiple mentions of delicious focaccia and sweet items. A single reviewer (about 2% of total feedback) complains about high prices, specifically citing a 5.60€ small iced matcha, while all other reviews frame the value and quality as excellent.
