Great vibe, great atmosphere, the staff is very friendly. They treated us as if we were acquaitances and not like we were there for the first time. The café itself is pet friendly. Great prices and splendid quality. I can't wait to go back again. A hidden gem in every sense of the word.

Cozy cafe in the city center with delicious yet affordable cocktails and amazing service. Nata and Tomo are super friendly, attentive and helpful. But the real star is the local black cat Cupica who's basically the bar owner. Remember to bring snacks!
