"Beautiful place, what a treat for a special occasion. Very dreamy atmosphere. Definitely going there again. Sweet treat were delicious. Savory buns could have been better, were a bit on the dry side."
Kubeshni Reddy
"I'm underwhelmed. I had high expectations.
They downsized from the cute pink cafe I knew to this rich Mediterranean colours in a room.
The waiters tried to get us to move from our seats twice.
Almost none of the items on the menu were actually there. The teas? Almost all sold out. The cakes? 90% sold out. The food? Overpriced for the taste quality and quantity. I really wanted this to be a good experience. I really did."
Sarah Nwosu
"The vibe here is super cool. You could completely forget you're in a shopping mall.
The people I was with all really enjoyed their drinks and food. So did I. The staff was prompt and friendly.
I really enjoyed my Irish coffee. ;)"
