My favorite was the Sonora from Costa Rica as either a latte or flat white, but also enjoyed their decaf as an americano.

It's only about a fifteen minute walk from the station and is super close to all the cool stuff down in central. I hadn't had my coffee for the morning yet, so Yelp steered me to this amazing cafe that does coffee right. Here at Cafe Mundi they're serious about coffee and give you lots options of either blends or single origin coffees. They even provide pamphlets explaining where their roasts come from and other information.  Also lots of options for brewing, such as v70, chemex, espresso, drip and cold brew. I selected a v60 with their Colombian single origin along with a chocolate croissant. The coffee was brought to my table and was perfect. The temperature was spot on and the taste was sensational. The croissant was great also, but I didn't realize how much chocolate filling was inside, a bit too much for me. Otherwise it was a great way to start my day in Belgium. Their WiFi was fast as well, something that was hard to find at a lot of places. I loved my coffee so much, I ended up grabbing some to go as well.

Came here for lunch together with my brothers, and it turned out to be an excellent choice!…read more We were all craving some real good looking sandwiches, and this place seemed just like it when I found it on Yelp. When we arrived we were met by a really nice guy behind the counter who helped us oit with his recommemdations. There were so much delicious options, but in the end I got the Chorizo and Goat Cheese Foccia as well as the Peppered Salami & Cheese Panini Melt. Originally the peppered salami & cheese was only an option for the ciabatta, but the guy let us choose different bread if we wanted to. Awesome service, I'm telling you. Both of them were super tasty, and pretty filling. If you're looking for a place that's got both the taste and the filling for a good price, this is the place for you.

Compared to the medinas in Morocco I would spend the next few weeks walking through, the streets of Brussels are fairly easy to navigate, although signage is still lacking to some degree. My GPS signal was pretty much nonexistent, so after guessing which train stop I needed to get off on, I really needed to pull up a map on an internet connection to get well situated. Delish prominently displayed their free wifi sign, at a time when few other businesses were open so early in the morning. What a relief. After getting settled in with a connection I decided to sample one of their signature coffee drinks, a mocha with a chantilly cream topping and real chunks of Belgian chocolate at the bottom. I didn't know I needed it, but once I had it damn was I grateful. It was the perfect pick-me-up for the sour attitude I was experiencing after dealing with such bad customer service, and the gals here helped relieve some of that too. Their welcoming demeanor and smiles really made a difference for me that morning, and helped change my impression of the otherwise cold city to that point.

However as a place to grab a snack and a coffee it actually was all that bad. Sure, the coffee wasn't anything all that fantastic, but my opinion of coffee seems to regularly change. The staff were fairly nice and the cafe itself quite cosy. It certainly is a decent place to stop by if you want a drink, or a mid-morning snack.

(hello, Moeder Lambic) I was staying at an airbnb where my front entrance opened up to the Grote Markt. I started my day looking on the Yelp app for a good brunch spot. I came across Jam as one of my searches, they place did not disappoint. I ordered the Royal Bouncer which was a fried egg with that gooey yolk goodness dripping down. I had a coffee and enjoyed my early afternoon by people watching and seeing the tram go by every several minutes. The service was friendly and I can see locals and the hip come here for brunch since the dishes looks awesome for that 'gram.

We waited 20-30 minutes for a menu, and probably placed our order 1 hour into our meal. When our food finay came, they forgot my food. Luckily, they were able to get my Kheema skillet to me in about 5 minutes, and they were very apologetic. The food tasted great, so I would definitely visit again sometime.

Everyone was enjoying delicious looking drinks and bagels. I ordered my two bagels to-go - the Bagel Chick and the Bagel Deli. All of the reviews rave about the bagels, but really they're just okay. Maybe I'm a bit spoiled because of my visits to New York and the huge availability in general in America. I don't think the bagels at Barnini are made fresh each morning. Bagels should not taste that dry. At least the Bagel Chick had a guacamole mayonnaise, but my husband wasn't so fortunate with the Bagel Deli. And if you're a bagel cafe, how can you only serve one type of bagel? If I were rating Barnini just on its bagels, I would give 3 stars. But my rating includes the ambience, which for me adds an extra star. Even though the bagels are average, I would love to go back for a coffee and pastry (the cakes and pies looked great) for breakfast or in the afternoon with a friend because the place is so gezellig.

There was 1 guy working, who was h.a.n.d.l.i.n.g-i.t. We bought several bags of coffee to bring home with us & have been enjoying Cuperus ever since!

Everything looked great ! Two cases filled with morning pastries, quiche, and desserts. We ordered two coffees a cinnamon pastry and an asparagus quiche. One would assume the quiche commig from the case is room temperature or you would be asked if you wanted it heated. They didn't ask so I, mistakenly, thought it would be room temperature. My husband got his coffee and was going to find a place to sit when the barista asked if we were eating there or to go. When we said we wanted to eat in, we were brusquely told we ordered from the take out and that we had been asked and they didn't want take out inside because it looked unsightly. We thought they asked if we were together. Fine, we'll leave and eat in our room. We didn't want to go through repacking everything onto tableware. There was no cream for the coffee. I was asked if I wanted milk. Ok, whatever at this point. My husband liked his cinnamon roll. My quiche was ice cold. Hard to enjoy a pastry crust that is cold. It would have been really good if had been at least room temperature. I barely ate it. So, if you want take out, stand in line, if you want a table I'm not sure what you do.
