Slip into Lie Awake, the black-cat-branded cafe somehow feels more boutique than a gas station. Its Bauhaus-style wood-and-white interiors lean minimalist yet inviting, complete with a sleepy black cat mascot that seems to supervise every coffee pour. Rather than generic roast levels, Lie Awake offers five thoughtfully named single-origin blends – think Keep You Awake for a punchy dark roast, or Dandelions for something floral and bright. Names that actually tell you what to expect. The sweet side skews Japanese‑inspired – tiramisu and matcha pudding show up regularly, with a lighter touch on sugar and a focus on creamy textures. Come hungry at lunch: the team also turns out Neapolitan‑style pizzas with a chewy crust and concise topping list – mushroom, Parma ham, or salami – a smart use of overlapping baking ingredients to minimise food waste.
