These guys brew a very fine coffee (although their signature frios, with blended ice, may be better in this heat) and there is a fantastic energy to the place. Next to coffee, there is also an appetising array of sandwiches, pastries and muffins.
Iced cupcakes, golden pastries, crunchy baguettes and bulging paninis are the staple at this very European of cafés. From the humble sausage roll to light and salty spinach and ricotta puff pastry, find a bevvy of bakery favourites chalked up on giant blackboards behind the serving counter.
