We didn't try a coffee here, but we were thinking of it until...
Our table was situated with a good view of the coffee machine. At first there were good signs, the milk was done with some care and looked glossy from where we sat. But after seeing a shot prepared and poured we decided on hot chocolates and a beer. The reasons: the dose into the portafilter was far to small, the tamp was very soft and showed the small amount of coffee in the portafilter, and then the shot came out like a waterfall in flood. Needless to say the shot was over quickly. Hence the choice in drinks.
In a phrase: not even worth trying the coffee.

If you're after a nice coffee and you walk past this place, keep walking.
Funny story here though. A customer asked the waitress for a soy decaf latte, her response was "No. This isn't Starbucks". Hahaha.

A new city for us, a new place to sample some coffee. Unfortunately it was similar to other under-par coffee's we have tried in the last 2 months. Again, the milk was frothed like too much powder in a washing machine. Stop it! The taste was not enjoyable. Too many bad tastes lying around.
In a phrase: try somewhere else.
