You have to come here! Incredible little gem in the city with strong coffee, beautiful homemade pastries and tarts and such a chill ambiance. They also have cheap options that look amazing for lunch, typical tico food, but done with love and quality. Perfectly clean bathroom and strong wifi available!

It’s a little hard to find this place, but everything is awesome. From the food to the service to the atmosphere. I came with my entire family for breakfast, and we just kept ordering more and more. Their coffee and cappuccinos were top notch too!
