The best coffee I've had in 3 weeks of traveling Colombia. The lemon cheese cake is also really good and yummy, not to sweet with a great taste of lemon. Friendly staff...

Best coffee in Bogotá . The owner roast his own beans, meaning your getting the fresh rich flavour coffee extracted from a high quality italian machine.

The coffee was delicious, and the barista was very hospitable, and especially gracious with my very broken Spanish. And there was wifi!
