    I never would have thought this would happen to me. I have no mind mentioning, the coffee is great at this place but great service? I think not, I was attacked with the WORST attitude from the waiter. Can’t believe this. However, please have a great day reviewers and you too waiter!

    I had high expectations for the food and was a bit disappointed. It was good but lacked depth in flavors. The place is absolutely gorgeous though, and I can see myself coming regularly for meetings, to work on a laptop, etc. A lot of light coming in, it's spacious, there are regular table and lounge style tables. I didn't get to try their baked goods but they looked amazing.

    The place was really nice! They have a lovely terrace and two floors inside. Staff was friendly. However I ordered an iced matcha that was not really good. They still use plastic straws (and they gave me one without asking), hopefully they stop soon!

    The place looks really nice and the service was friendly, but, although highly recommended food- wise, on a Saturday morning they only had 3 types of cookies, 2 types of scones and some croissant. Nothing else! It looked really depressing. I get it: it's hot, people do something else and not going to a cafeteria. Or maybe they have a wider variety on the weekdays, when everyone from the institutions is at work. Nevertheless, I would like to find some more savory options - sandwiches, a quiche, a salad, some scrambled eggs are all very easy to make options. And where were all the cakes, all the delicious stuff that people posted online? I went there as a recommendation, and I ended up leaving because they had nothing!

    Even though their Instagram and Google maps show a lot of food pictures, ever since corona they do not have food anymore. It is just a coffee place, it looked good to work or just for a coffee.

  • 5/5 Sabin R. 5 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    My coffee got slightly cold as I had to take a call while it was brought to the table. The manager replaced it with a fresh, hot one. The music, the staff, the cleanliness - all really great. Would totally recommend.

    Cookie and scone are average, a bit pricey, not a must to try. Coffee is fine. I like their atmosphere anyway, nice decorations and music, probably a good place to work on laptop 🙌🏼

    A great place with great coffee. Pastry is delicious as well. Recommend.

  • 4/5 Catarina L. 1 month ago on Google • 59 reviews New
    Super nice place for a coffee and a cookie while stufing or working. Good lunch options. I recommend the soup and the toast 😋

  • 5/5 Miklós S. 1 year ago on Google
    The place to have meetings from. You can get a little busy and noisy but it’s a great environment to get some work done. Their coffee was great, and their staff is cheerful, which is a good start to your day

    (Translated by Google) Super granola, but overall much too expensive and also self-service. A real shame. (Original) Super Granola, aber insgesamt viel zu teuer und auch noch Selbstbedienung. Wirklich schade.

  • 2/5 T. I. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The Granola Bowl was very good. Still, it does not justify the price of 15 euros for a breakfast, with a small baguette tail and hot drink with self service. Too bad, because the ambience is nice. The 7 employees were all nice. (Original) Die Granola Bowl war ausgesprochen gut. Dennoch rechtfertig es nicht den Preis von 15 Euro für ein Frühstück, mit einem kleinen Baguette Endstück und Heissgetränk mit Selbstbedienung. Wirklich schade, da das Ambiente nett ist. Die 7 Angestellten waren allesamt nett.

    The soup of the day is always very tasty and served in a big bowl. The scones are not very tasty. Once in a while it's ok and the déco is nice but all in all overpriced and it feels very hot on the upstairs floor.

    Very hipster-vibed place (positive). I had their some kind of salty muffin. Very good. Ideal place if you need to meet a friend for a coffee or to sort out few emails.

    Beautiful place with delicious lunch (Daily special). My favourite place to have lunch, I order without even checking menu. Very tastful, light food. Good coffee. This place is very welcoming for home office upstairs although it occur to be a big too warm there (great for people who are always cold). Beautiful interior joining MidCentury Danish modernism with industial modern trends.

    I wasn't impressed, drink was healthy and nice, but overall the quality of the whole place was a bit mediocre. Personally I don't like the go-to-the-bar-to-order concept but that should never be an excuse to not clean a place. It wasn't clean.

    Amazing/kind service and good snacks/drinks. I was looking for a place to study so I hassled the staff quite a bit but they were all really kind and they all did the absolute most for me. They even went to the extent of making off menu drinks for me. Liam was really welcoming and took great care of me. Great place to study if home isn’t an option for you, I stayed around 2/3 hours no problem.

    Super well designed and thought through coffee shop. The quality of the coffee is good. The design pieces seem to be carefully chosen, but i feel like it could use an update, some of the furniture definitely shows signs of usage.

  • 3/5 Cedric V. 4 years ago on Google • 22 reviews
    The place has a nice but chaotic coziness over it. Staff is... Well, staff. No extra smiles over the counter however genuine people. Rather long wait for a simple cappuccino & a scone which was put in the oven when ordered but served cold 15' later. Cleanliness/hygiene is a questionmark. Will go again when other coffee places are closed.

  • 5/5 Andrea O. 1 month ago on Google • 15 reviews New
    This place is incredible. Their cheddar scones are over the top and the staff supported me to give my boyfriend a birthday surprise and they gave the extra mile. Amazing place, amazing people and amazing food!!

  • 1/5 Harm de J. 4 months ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Went here with a group of approxamatily 25 persons, they weren't able to handle an order of 25 cups of coffee so we asked for a cashback and left after wasting 20 minuten waiting. A big disappointment, not worth visiting.

  • 5/5 Sophia G. 1 month ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    Finally open on Sundays now! ❣️ Cute café, great for a productive working session. I can recommend the cheddar scone. They heat it and serve it with salty butter - delicious.

  • 5/5 Nevena H. 2 years ago on Google
    The staff is awesome, the coffee is really good and what tipped me over to 5+ stars was the free sanitary towels in the toilet. That place knows what great care for the customers means. ♥️

  • 5/5 Habib El Maaza G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great coffees and pastries. When the sun is shining 🌞 the terrace is the best place to enjoy their amazing capuchino. When it's raining 🌧️ the beautifully designed interior will not spoiled your experience. The staff here is very kind and helpful.

  • 3/5 Marc Van den B. 2 years ago on Google
    Perfect place to grab a coffee and to take a short break between two meetings. WiFi and kind staff are helping to make you spend a comfortable moment in a cozy environment two steps away from the EU Parliament and Council building.

  • 5/5 Shawn B. 1 year ago on Google
    Good coffee, great working environment, nice staff. Some very tasty pastries.

  • 4/5 Ира �. 10 months ago on Google
    Very nice place and nice stuff. And they really know how to make good coffee

  • 3/5 Simone 1 year ago on Google
    Good ambience. The place seems like it has just opened and seems to have great potential. If dining in, I’d recommend having your treats upstairs where you can see a pretty view of the square on top, especially in fall. Edit: realized thanks to Maxime the place was first opened in 2015. Sorry! Nothing to do with the quality of the food and service. My thought was that the upstairs space has the potential to feature interesting things - in its bookshelves primarily - whether it is cool art, books to sell, or decorations, for a cozier space up there.

  • 5/5 Javier Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place where you can eat an amazing soup, choose a vegetarian option, pay with card and... get a glass of water! Charming and professional staff. Make sure you don't miss it for a nice lunch

  • 4/5 Roxanne C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place to work on your laptop, the WiFi is fast enough, there are many plugs and you can drink really good coffees. However, you must take into consideration that it is quite busy during lunch so maybe not the best time to have your online meetings there if you don't have a headset. The food is also good and the staff super friendly

  • 5/5 Eduardo Yáñez P. 1 year ago on Google
    My favourite place for having a coffee. Very kind staff, gluten-free cakes and cookies. Very confortable. It’s a pity that it’s small and sometimes very busy.

  • 4/5 Marta P. 2 years ago on Google
    Place with clear potential - though Covid19 measures of plexi glass are not helping to maintain its cosy atmosphere... Looking forward to revisit when we're more back to normal. Great choice of cookies and coffees for vegan / lactose intolerant

  • 5/5 Mathias S. 9 months ago on Google
    Easily one of the best coffees in Brussels. The pastries are fantastic although their amazing warm scones were slightly undercooked in the middle the last couple of times and the butter had a slight fridge stored taste to it. Otherwise its 5 stars all the way! Keep up the amazing work guys

  • 5/5 Jillian R. 6 years ago on Google
    Nice cafe with a few food options. Beware the croque monsieur was much larger than you'd expect but very much worth the money. The furniture and decor is mostly all available for sale.

  • 5/5 Tara M. 9 months ago on Google
    This place is my favourite. The people are nice. They have good milk alternatives and their scone is incredible. My best advice, take a coffee to go a sit in the park.

  • 5/5 Iana S. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good coffee!!! Friendly staff!

  • 2/5 Jussi K. 9 months ago on Google
    Coffee is good and the cook's attitude in the back. Otherwise, it would be nice if they'd bother to let people know in the line there's no food left. After 10-15min it's kind of a bummer.. Or not serve the coffee at the counter and then put you to wait 15min for the rest

  • 5/5 Nat 8 months ago on Google
    I love this place. The coffee is delicious, deserts fabulous and service efficient. They have a terrace. Also the food is really good and healthy. Highly recommended

  • 4/5 Mateja K. 7 months ago on Google
    It's a nice and popular place to meet. I just had a coffee, and it was nice. The only thing I strongly encourage the owner of the place is to clean those sofas (they are really dirty).

  • 5/5 Flaviu F. 7 months ago on Google
    Best chai latte we ever had! ❤️

  • 4/5 Rūta A. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice food but too cold inside

  • 4/5 Manon P. 3 years ago on Google
    Good food, good coffee, nice people 😊

  • 2/5 Eduardo C. 3 years ago on Google
    The place is beautifully designed and cozy, but overly expensive and the quality of pastries and coffee is unexceptional. You can find similar/better products elsewhere. Also: I ordered a pistacchio cake to go. It was packed in a beautiful box which almost made it seem worth the 5 euros... When I opened it at home it turned out to be another pastry. Not great service either.

  • 5/5 Filip G. 4 years ago on Google
    Very big and tasty brunch meals

  • 4/5 Emma R. 4 years ago on Google
    Lots of seating and decent options for breakfast and brunch. Last time I was there they ran out of quite a few menu options and in the summer there tends to be an issue with wasps outside.

  • 4/5 Tobias G. 4 years ago on Google
    Came here twice for lunch. The food is always healthy and fresh but was not particularily tasty beyond that from what i remember. But the ambience and outside setting are excellent and inviting to come here for coffee, lemonade or, indeed, lunch in the sun

  • 5/5 Jens L. 4 years ago on Google
    Granola and Acai bowls are delicious and very big!

  • 5/5 Salvija B. 4 years ago on Google
    Stylish, hipster, good food: small selection, but good quality! Also apart from good traditional scones and cakes, they usually have a few gluten-free home made cakes too; today it was a deliscious looking brownie!!!

  • 5/5 Vincenzo M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Excellent cappuccino and comfortable and relaxing environment. (Original) Ottimo cappuccino e ambiente confortevole e rilassante.

  • 5/5 Konstantin V. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 anita c. 4 years ago on Google
    Very cozy, especially if you need to study or do something for work for a while. I kad pecan carrot cake, very good. The prices are ok. Tea was very good as well.

  • 5/5 Kat C. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious brioche and coffee!

  • 5/5 Anujin M. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 James B. 4 years ago on Google
    Ran out of a couple of dishes that we wanted but what was left was lovely.

  • 4/5 Cátia S. 4 years ago on Google
    It has vegan options and gluten free ❤️. Nice place nexto to Europeen Parl...

  • 4/5 Carolina D. 4 years ago on Google
    Good place for lunch

  • 1/5 Nathalia Valencia O. 2 years ago on Google
    Poor service . The wait staff was really rude . For example the barista started a conversation with her colleague in the middle of my order and gave me a dirty look when I asked if she understood my order. But then I had to repeat it anyways . Reasonable coffee prices but the coffee wasn’t something special .

  • 3/5 Naomi D. 4 years ago on Google
    I’m a true believer that if I go to a cafe and the staff is so so, I won’t enjoy the place 100%. I went in, it wasn’t busy, no hellos and no smiles... I asked about food and they said only cakes, which was ok. However it was right before midday and it would’ve been nice if the staff mentioned there’s a lunch menu coming up in fifteen minutes. I did love the decor and the feel of the place. My coffee was huge but half of it was soy froth so not the best. Scone was tasty, though. I’ll only come back for a quick coffee if I’m in the area again.

  • 3/5 zelda z. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice place.Good cappuccino. Cake and cookies mediocre. Service and rough reception although there is 1 or 2 of the staff who raises the level. And price a little high for pastries. (Original) Bel endroit.Bon cappuccino. Cake et cookies médiocre. Service et accueil approximatif bien qu'il y ai 1 ou 2 du personnel qui relève le niveau. Et prix un peu élevé pour les pâtisseries.

  • 5/5 Paul S. 4 years ago on Google
    Such a nice place! The name fits the athmosphere. Serves also beer in the evening:)

  • 5/5 Kristi R. 4 years ago on Google
    Best coffee in Schuman, also non-dairy milks available. Gluten free treats. Superb daily lunch menu and wonderful desserts.

  • 3/5 Adrian Z. 4 years ago on Google
    We visited living room on a Sunday morning so no issues finding a table. Staff was as friendly as you would expect and the food arrived fast. Coffee was fine and the scrambled eggs with bacon ok. A bit overpriced (€20) for a menu.

  • 3/5 Rémi 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The place is friendly and tries to stand out from the usual tea-room and these successful. But it would be nice not to lose sight of the fact that we live in Belgium and that English is not the only language used. (Original) L'endroit est sympa et tente de se démarquer des tea-room habituelle et ces réussi. Mais il serait bien de ne pas perdre de vue qu'on vie en Belgique et que l'anglais n'ai pas la seul langue utilisé.

    Cosy interior, great music, good coffee, interesting alternatives to croissants, shaded terrasse, friendly staff. One of the best options in the Schuman/Jourdain area. An original and independent small business.
