    The place is rather small but really cozy and nice. The waiters were insanely amicable and helpful, which is always nice as a foreigner. I only had a mocha frappe and some coca infusion, the frappe was perfect and the small teapot of coca infusion was enough for three glasses. Loved the place, definitely coming again next time I'm in La Paz

    The cafe is located inside a book shop, which is quite nice. However, the place is quite tight so there's not a lot of space. Coffee selection is wonderful! We had the geisha lavado in chemex and it's nothing I have tasted thus far. ;)

    This Cafรฉ is a hidden gem - I like the atmosphere in the library. Perfect place to enjoy a good book, write a poem or create a fascinating script for the next blockbuster. The service was amazing and she took care of all my needs. :) thank you

    Such a brilliant place to chill out whilst writing or reading a book, or doing some work from your laptop etc. The frappeโ€™s are amazing (especially the baileys one) and also the staff are really helpful and professional, especially Silvia who was fantastic.

    If you searching for a good coffee store, you are welcome! They offer amazing coffee, ice tea and they have good internet. Perfect place for a break or travel research.

    I needed a table to work. There was only one table available where I could work. However, after I paid for my drink and was about to sit down, I was told that the table was only for available for groups. I could not occupy one of the six open chairs available at the table. In turn, I had to leave the cafe and find a new place to work. This incident happened after I had already purchased a drink earlier in the day as well. Take care of the customers in front of you, not imaginary ones who may or may not show up later on.

    What a great spot for a cup of coffee and some of the highest quality, most interesting coffees you can find anywhere.

    Such a nice and cozy place to have a coffee. Had a latte with soy milk, was delicious.

  • 5/5 Elise I. 11 months ago on Google
    Excellent coffee in a cute spot - very central but it feels cosy and tucked away from the city hustle and bustle. But most importantly - world class coffee :-)

  • 4/5 Kelly S. 11 months ago on Google
    Amazing Americano here, even though itโ€™s by far the most expensive one Iโ€™ve had in Bolivia. More than anywhere in Peru also. More costly than even in my home country of Canada. Please take note owners. Atmosphere here is also excellent.. and music is super

  • 4/5 Loren O. 1 year ago on Google
    Comfortable place to rest after hours walking around La Paz, outlets on the side of each chair. A bit expensive but the atmosphere and comfortable seats worth it.

  • 5/5 Michael A. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply extraordinary coffee shop. Literally surrounded by a bookstore, this sumptuous setting harkens back to Victorian England and pre-war Paris, while also celebrating its location in the heart of Bolivia. Serves up the finest Geisha coffee I've ever tasted. Can't recommend highly enough.

  • 5/5 Connie R. 4 years ago on Google
    Great coffee shop- delicious coffee (European style roasted but well and diversely brewed) Some cold beverage, croissants and good cakes. A bit pricy (20bs for coffee) but worth it. Great WIFI- vouchers are valid for 1h, but great service can extend or give new ones. Relaxed atmosphere as a part of a old style book shop with a cool latter to the stop shelves.

    Spent a delightful hour or two in this wonderful spot: an oasis of calm with good coffee and charming staff. And books to browse too. Thank you so much.

  • 5/5 Kanako S. 5 years ago on Google
    I love this small coffee shop. It's cozy, a good atmosphere, nice music,and of course nice coffee. I just want to come back here with nice books!

  • 2/5 Jessica W. 1 year ago on Google
    Cappucchino was absolutely discusting. Nutella latte was good and croissant was also ok.

  • 4/5 Majed A. 4 years ago on Google
    It is inside a bookstore. I liked their decoration & seats. Flat white coffee was very good.

  • 5/5 Danielle J. 6 years ago on Google
    I am a bit of a snob when it comes to coffee and this place did not disappoint. The ambience, the quality of items, and the staff are all on point. I ordered a moka (25bs) and it was perfectly made with good quality coffee and dark chocolate so it wasn't too sweet like many others you will find in South America.
