I get a lot of coffee from many different places. Nothing special. Large Oat Milk Latte. It was my first time here today. Wholly smokes this latte was great. To the pointnI was going to walk back inside and tell the gentleman behind the counter. But he had other guests so Im writing this instead. Seriously, it was a very good Latte.

I had a salmon bagel catered from this cafe at a friend’s event. It was delicious! Few days later I went to the cafe and had an egg salad croissant, and it was very fresh and tasty. The croissant is among the best I have had. The cafe is cozy and staff were very friendly. Just got to know the owner Angela and really admired her dedication in the cafe and the coffee/food. Angela offered me to try their matcha tiramisu and oh my it is to die for! I will come back again to try other menu items as they look so good!

My love dessert cafe in Broadway. Refreshing and cute ambiance let me feel so relaxed. The staffs were friendly as well. They had one of the best croissant which was soft pillowy, flaky, and had perfect buttery layers with air in between. Really love their plain croissant! If you visit in the early morning, you can smell the amazing air. Besides plain one, I also like teriyaki chicken one, chicken with the sweet sauce seasoning well. Canele was also their signature but that day I had a soft one which was different from I had previously. It should be crunchy outside. The new drink—tiramisu black caught my appetite. Sweet cream cheese foam made the black coffee more interesting. If you are a person who doesn’t like pure black, you could try this one.

This cafe offers a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that is perfect for a relaxing afternoon or a quick coffee break. Recently, they released two new flavors of tiramisu - oolong tea and strawberry - in addition to the popular mango flavor which is back. When ordering tiramisu, it's presented beautifully, and I highly recommend trying the oolong flavored tiramisu as it is made with high-quality tea leaves and tastes delicious. They have also introduced waffles to their menu, with the owner even traveling to Belgium to learn how to make them. Pairing the waffles with their new summer drinks, such as the "lychee oasis" and "strawberry cloud," is a must-try. Additionally, they have recently opened their patio for customers to enjoy.

A charming coffee and dessert shop that I absolutely adore! The aesthetic appeal of their dessert is top- notch, and it’s a perfect place to meet up with friends for a delightful afternoon tea. They offer a wide variety of baked goods and beverages, with an extensive selection of croissants and a range of flavours for their Tiramisu, including strawberry, matcha, black sesame and original flavour. The menu is regularly updated, and I am currently obsessed with their new and stunning waffle series. The waffles are light, fluffy and deliciously sweet. My friends particularly love the Oreo waffle flavour. Their signature summer drinks like Lychee Oasis, Flamingo Fizz are refreshing and aesthetically pleasing, perfect for the summer season. The array of vibrant colours brings out my inner joy!

Highly recommend!! This is the second time I ordered from their catering menu for my group of 10 people. Salmon bagels were prepared to its perfection, from the ingredients, texture, flavor, to the presentation! Almond croissants were amazingly rich but balanced very well and a perfect pair with coffee or tea. Ham & Cheese croissants are my all-time favorite; simple yet very satisfactory. All food were thoughtfully packed. My last experience with their catering was really good, and this time was even better! I can see the owner's dedication to their food & service. Bravo!

This small cozy coffee shop exudes warmth and charm. From the moment you step in, the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air. The friendly staff creates a welcoming atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to unwind. The carefully curated menu offers a delightful selection of beverages, and the snug seating arrangements make it an ideal place for intimate conversations or solo contemplation. Overall, a hidden gem that radiates comfort and serves up a delightful coffee experience. Celebrating the rich flavors of this charming coffee spot, we indulged in both the cafe latte and chai latte. Both were delightful, but if I had to choose a favorite, the Chai latte stole the show. The perfect blend of spices and warmth made it an absolute winner. Each sip was a comforting journey through flavor, solidifying this coffee shop as my go-to for a superb Chai latte experience.

cute atmosphere, good space to study (although they have a sign to stay up to 1h during rush hours). the coffee was strong, the croissant was the best one Ive had EVER, seriously soooo good, buttery, soft yet crunchy, simply perfect. the tiramisu was basically not a tiramisu, but a very yummy cake if you like soft cake. I liked it, yet I didnt taste coffee on it. good place! i recommend. also they have wifi!
