This cafe is a hidden gem in the heart of the city. The coffee is outstanding, the pastries are fresh, and atmosphere & view are perfect for a relaxing morning or chill afternoon.

Had an genuinely awful cup of coffee. It was over extracted and tasted like sludge. I implied I wanted a refund, I was told 'sorry it's not to your taste'.

A lovely café serving excellent coffee. A separate area for digital nomads.

I found the service rude at this cafe. First when I ordered, I was told they were closing in an hour. I said it was fine. Then I went about my business. Then the person came and reminds me that they are going to close in 20 minutes. Not sure why that was necessary when it was already discussed when I entered. Five minutes before closure I packed up and even took my dirty dishes to the person and cleaned up my table and they took it without even an acknowledgment of me doing that. I left the cafe and went to the building lobby. I was waiting for a friend to come and get me as he works on the higher floor as cafe and I was not even in the cafe any more. This cafe person follows me there and asks me why I am sitting there and I said I am waiting for my friend to come and get me once they finish the meeting they are in. To which this person says I will have to call security. I said sure go ahead. No security person showed up but this person comes back five minutes later and asks me when I was going to leave. I said my friend was coming anytime and thankfully he came and took me to his office. I felt harassed by this cafe person. And during these multiple interactions there was no hello nothing. It did make me wonder why was I being harrassed this way cause that was not happening with others in the cafe. Others who came in at the cafe werent told these things repeatedly and followed around. And I did wonder whether this had to do with my race. Regardless whether it was about that or not - I dont feel this is a proper way to be treated at a cafe especially when I am being nice and courteous. This affected me and I am still feeling it 30 minutes after the incident. It is what it is. I wish this cafe and its management all the best and hopefully this feedback encourages them to provide training to its staff. But I dont recommend this cafe. Added on Sept 22: Based on Pauls reply. As much As I appreciate and understand the response from Paul the issue actually isn't about the reminder about the cafe closing nor is the issue about being told to leave the lobby. The issue is that Paul claims polite reminder. There was nothing polite about the reminder and were three reminders needed? Further - the issue is that I saw others who came after me and I noticed they were racially different and they weren't told even once of any such reminder and treated with a warm hello etc which I didn't get. Lastly - It might have been the cafe policy to ask me depart the cafe and ask me to not stay in the lobby but I also was waiting in the lobby for a resident company member to come and meet me and they arrived literally seconds after - So the third reminder and the threat of calling security was another not so polite reminder. It was using authority to discrimate me and harass me. I wouldnt interpret that differently if others were treated in the same fashion and they werent so my issue is not with the reminders nor the policies concerning the lobby or cafe closure. My issue is with the manner of treatment to different guest and clients and it not being consistent. Anyways - I accept Pauls considerate response and I also accept and trust that Paul will discuss it with their team which is all I ask. Even if it was not badly intended - It did land on me this way and might on others so really its about being polite and considerate in reminders and implementing the rules and policies more so than the policy itself.
