When they first opened, it was a tiny space way from the city center, no sign, almost impossible to stumble upon by chance and extremely difficult to find, even if you knew where to look for it.
But the place had a very nice ambiance, the coffee was excellent, and the people who worked there (I'd say "bros", but that'd be unfair towards the awesome female part of the team) were super friendly. I started to frequent the place even though it was out of my usual ways.
Since then they have moved to a better location and a (slightly) bigger place, and the ambience is still there. There is often something going on — a movie club, a book club, or just a nice conversation that draws in all the visitors one by one.
Go for a coffee — everything is great, but if you’re in the mood for something sweet, get Something Else. It’s actually a single name for a few different recipes developed by baristas, so what you get by that name depends on who’s making it. Oh, and try a dessert — they have their own bakery.
