Excellent coffee, as usual, finely served and ready to be enjoyed
Good coffee, fair price
I went there with my boyfriend as I really wanted to see what the coffee shop is like nowadays. I've been there some years ago when I was still in school and I remember being fascinated by the place because you could pick a book from the bookstore and just walk into the coffee shop and read.
The interior is really small and the decor is tacky, it looks like they just threw whatever they had around on the shelves without even considering if it looks good. There was even a box filled with toilet paper rolls right next to our table.
The barista was a loud, kind of rude lady, who didn't really seem to know what she was doing. I even saw her mess up another client's order and got milk all over the counter, and she would banter loudly with some costumers she was familiar with. The atmosphere felt more like a countryside pub rather than a city centre coffee shop, and I didn't feel comfortable being there at all.
The coffee itself was pretty bad. There weren't many options and they were out of some of them. The frappe I got actually came from a powder mix instead of it being real coffee. The taste was ok but there was a lot of powder on the bottom of the cup so I couldn't finish it. My boyfriend ordered an Americano coffee and he said it was the worst coffee he ever had, like someone just mixed in coffee grounds into hot water without actually brewing the coffee. It tasted watery with bits of coffee grounds floating in it.
We decided we won't return again, there are much better coffee shops and cafes in the city. I'm very disappointed as this is such a good place to get a drink since it's right next to the bookstore, but it's not worth the trouble.

Cafeaua bună, servire ireproșabilă. Nu am dat cinci stele intrucat spatiul este mic, foarte aglomerat si incarcat cu produse. Am preferat Cafeaua la pachet si am servit-o aproape de mare.
One of the best coffee in town, maybe the best. The people are great and helpful. Always a pleasure to come back.
Ok
Very unfriendly seller with those who do not know coffee flavors!
