Nice Café

Nice shop/café with some vegan options like brownies or croissants.
Also serves hot food for breakfast and brunch.
Coffee was a bit thin.

Such a lovely place ❤️

A lovely café with a warm, welcoming atmosphere — it feels like a safe and inclusive space, especially for queer folks. The staff were super friendly and open, and you can tell that diversity is genuinely appreciated here. They have a few vegan options, which were clearly labeled and really tasty. While it’s not a fully vegan spot, it’s a great place to relax, feel seen, and enjoy a good coffee or snack.

Cool Store with a small café area

It’s such a cool store. We had some Bi-ice-tea and pastry afterwards, met some nice people, such an amazing place!

Good Coffee, Nice atmosphere.

Coffee was very well presented and was well made. Great to see a place like this exist.

Did try the food or baked goods but they looked good.

Nice vibes, too bad they are not fully vegan

I liked very much the atmosphere and super nice staff, the vegan Biscoff croissant was delicious. Too bad they serve cow’s milk and are not fully vegan!

Love & Pride

Great to be able to support this little cafe. We just bought a 'choose love' print and a pronouns pin badge. Staff were super friendly.

Vegan bakes and drinks

I have had many brownies and drinks from here. They are always delicious and they do different drinks for the seasons. And even better, the shop is a safe space for queer people where you can buy various items.
