Small, cozy and artistic. The owner spoke some English and even offered soy, coconut, or almond milk in my cappuccino

The best coffee I've ever had, and world-class food as well. Cute environment and great service. I love trying new places, but this place was so great I came back twice on the same trip. The matcha latte was so good I'll probably remember it for years to come.
