Finally a REAL Italian café!!! No matter what you think what…read morethe above sentence means, this is one (contrary to so many self-acclaimed Italian bars in Brussels). Go now, stay there half an hour and take it easy. Have an expresso and an excellent piadina (the owner is from the very piadina region so he knows what he's doing!) I'm so happy this is close to my job! :)

At lunch time they serve salads and tasty piadinas (incl vegetarian/vegan options). I like the atmosphere a lot. Many Italians come to this place, which is always a good sign. Don't forget to try their homemade tiramisu!

They serve various breakfast items and lunch items, as well as coffees, teas, juices, and pastries. The decor is so cute with the hanging bikes and the atmosphere is very cosy. Wifi is free (but of course, order something and support your local cafes!). In relation to food and drinks, I've enjoyed their chicken tandoori quinoa bowl and their hot apple cider/juice. Their cappuccinos are also lovely and come with a small speculoos cookie. Service is friendly where they deliver your order to you, and they don't make you feel like you're taking up space if you're working or studying.

I love how they decorated the space here, clean, pure with a little hipster-touch. A little jewel in an otherwise boring neighbourhood. The Barista's really know what they do, and served me a very good Ice-Latte with a friendly smile. They have excellent espresso-based drinks, drip coffee, fresh orange juice and a selection of (healthy) snacks for breakfast and lunch. It can get busy at morning rush hour, but service is fast. It can be your new favourite place to get a fresh cup of joe in the morning or to get your lunchtime eating regime on the right track... this is definitely my new coffee shop to add a kick to my morning commute. Don't miss the orange infused Detox water next to the counter.

They have never heard about the concept "CLIENT"…read more I've been there many many times because it's very close to my job and it's always the same. Good products (a bit overpriced) and TERRIBLE SERVICE. Not only they are not nice, nor efficient. Imagine: a queue of several people waiting for ordering and paying, four waiters and just one of them serving the clients (preparing coffes, paying...everything!!!!). The rest, doing some stuff, talking among them, but NEVER caring about the queu or the needs of the clients. Always like that!!!

Somewhat strange setup: you find a table, make note of your table number, line up for food at the counter, and they bring your order out. We visited on a Friday morning: it took 5 minutes in line to order and another 30 minutes for the food -- popular place. My wife & I each got the Vegan Rustic breakfast (€13), which comes with a nice dark bread, hummus, avocado, green tomato, and a choice of orange or apple juice, and a hot drink (we got doppio espresso). We also split a very nice vegan croissant (€2.50). The main food items were very simply but tasty and well-executed: the bread was hearty, the avocado was fresh, the hummus was well-made, and the tomatoes were fresh and juicy. Perhaps not the greatest deal given the portion you're getting, but we were content enough. Good spot for vegetarian and vegan breakfast.
