Great ice coffee, just how we like it, pistachio cake is to die for, just one thing is missing and that is Greek yogurt, an alternative to cream and a healthier alternative . I'm sure older customers would prefer to have the Greek yogurt. PRETTY PLEASE. The new owners are awesome

I have been going to this little cafe in the mall for quite a few years and the people that owned and worked there were really friendly and lovey. The food and coffee were always great. Recently it has had new owners and I can say it is really lovely to see the service, great coffee and food have not changed. They are super friendly and make a delicious coffee. This will still my little go to even just for a coffee when walking around the mall.

Our local for many years so it's nice to be greeted like old friends. Service is always friendly and efficient. Consistently great coffee, good food selection. Popular with the older generation as it is tucked at the back near The Warehouse away from the noisier food hall.

I often visit this cafe during my breaks at work. Very friendly Korean cafe. There are a lot of elderly customers, and it's a relaxing and relaxing place. I want to try food someday.
