Stumbled upon this coffee shop while walking around Old San Juan and loved it. I ordered a strawberry matcha with oat milk and it was one of the best ones I've had. The barista who took my order was so kind and the vibes were very chill. It's a really cute spot to stop for a quick rest, chat, and take pictures. Definitely recommend!

Very delicious breakfast, it feels like Puerto Rican/European the Breakfast Croissant were very delicious, and the cafe is very unique very good. Kevin attended us very sweet person handled us with care. The environment here is phenomenal I enjoyed every moment in this little cafe in El Viejo San Juan.

this cafe was amazing! everything we ordered was great and the atmosphere was perfect. we ordered a caramel and vanilla iced latte and it was absolutely out of this world! the flavors were not overwhelming and the coffee was just right. Alongside, we ordered the breakfast burrito that came with a salad and that also was amazing . The BEST part of the entire experience was the rum cake! we came back a few times in hopes to get more rum cake but it sells out quickly but with good reason! definitely give this coffee shop a try ! OH and the limeade was great too:)
