Great little cafe in a perfect spot of the city, nice to stop in for an espresso, cappuccino or panino. Low prices and friendly service, visited each day while staying next door and was never disappointed.

Such a friendly cafe with delicious sandwiches and cakes on offer. The cafe has a small room at the back to supplement the few tables in the entrance. The owner is friendly and our cappuccinos were also delicious.

A fantastic local cafe just off the square, with no other tourists, and it is very atmospheric. We ate and drank and felt incredibly welcome in this very cute spot. We'll definitely return for more beautiful sandwiches and coffee.

Friendly owner and tasty sandwich. They offer a good variety of sandwiches and snacks. Just during the short period of time while we were having the food, there were more than 10 people visited and ordered coffee which speaks their quality of food and coffee.
