One of my favourite cafes in the midtown. Staffs are funny and really friendly! The pastries are very fresh and delicious. I really like their coffee syrup, it just tastes different compared to the ones I tried at other cafes. I recommend their mango danish, raspberry croissant, chocolate almond croissant, and quiches.

If you’re looking for a real croissant in midtown, this is the place you need to come. I could tell from one bite that they use quality ingredients. Staffs are friendly and the service is quick. They offer a variety of baked goods such as croissants, sourdough breads, sandwiches, danishes, tarts, quiches, cakes, cookies etc.

We tried some of their products below.

1. Plain Croissant : 4.5/5
2. Almond Plain Croissant : 4/5
3. Chocolate Almond Croissant : 5/5
- Just delicious. I've never tried the chocolate + almond combo before but they go really well together. Highly recommend.
4. Mustard Twist : 5/5
5. Vanilla & chocolate cookies : 4/5
6. Apple Almond Danish : 5/5
- The texture of baked apples and the layers.. everything about this danish was amazing. I usually don't like the taste of baked apples but this danish? Please try. If you ever see this danish in the basket, just get it. You won't regret it.
7. Pain Au Chocolat : 3/5

I recommend visiting in the morning if you’d like to try various pastries. And maximum 4 people are allowed in the store. I’ll definitely come back and try their cake menus too.

Please get an iced vanilla latte with soy milk at De Mello. The weather was a bit chilly the day I visited so I was originally thinking of getting a hot coffee but I’m so glad I got the iced one.

I actually tried both iced and hot. Both tasted good, but iced latte is more savoury and you can taste stronger vanilla than the hot one. It’s really good so that you won’t regret holding it even in the super cold weather. Me and my friend also tried their strawberry jam scone. Their scone is more on the moist side. I’d recommend them for a light breakfast menu.

What I really liked about this cafe is the cozy vibe you’ll only get at a local cafe and the well designed goods. For your information, we visited around 11 am and it was pretty busy at that time! The staffs are super friendly and easy to talk to. I think I’ll regularly come to this place over Starbucks from now on.

Front lines were all vegan gelatos. (*make sure to check with the staff just in case) Majority of them are fruit flavours and I tried banana, macedonia, chocolate.

1. Banana : Tasted just like the fruit! But if you expect an artificial banana flavour, this may not be the flavour you want to try.

2. Macedonia : I loved this flavour. The colour is stunning and it’s very refreshing! Think of it like a fruit salad.

3. Chocolate : The staff told me this flavour was popular so I had to try! This was not bad but I don’t think it’s the best you can try here.

The staffs are kind & the prices seem fair. I’d like to try more flavours in the future!
