Alina CiorganJuly 27, 2015Love this urban space. Relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a coffee and a bite to eat. There are a few nice healthy choices. Tried the tacos & avocado-feta baguette, both delicious. Dog-friendly too.
Joanna GramsNovember 22, 2016Perfect place to work or for a meeting. Good coffee and cheesecake. Usually crowded in the evenings but it's possible to make a reservation.
Ada UbreziMay 30, 2014What a way to start the morning! Great atmosphere, even better coffee (siphon!!!), delicious slovak poppy cake, wifi, surrounded by books and more! Loved it!! BA surprised in the best possible way!
ZoryOctober 20, 2013Great and creative space. Cozy atmosphere with exclusive design of chairs, tables, glass.... everything just for a great time-spending there while reading book or meeting friends...

Jonathan CJune 12, 2014Cafe open till midnight. Quality coffee on hand. I had a doppio in The Barn roaster espresso. Multiple slow brew methods,Yama cold brew, a few flavored lattes, liquor drinks, and light food & desserts
Marina LadudaJuly 25, 2014Excellent selection of beverages, hot and cold. Perhaps not fancy, but hipster friendly. Service is above average, just talk to them like you know them :) good working and chilling atmosphere!
Vincent RousseauApril 19, 2014My favorite bar in Bratislava. Great atmosphere, music, and they have a bunch of great trendy design stuffs. They are a bit pricey, but you wont find cheaper on internet :-)
Alexandros PlexidasMarch 8, 2015Hipster coffee place with nice interior space and friendly staff. Ideal for a quick meal and a fresh juice or a home lemonade. Flathwhite is, of course, an option :)
Joana MagalhãesJanuary 18, 2016nice space, really trendy and cozy!! avocado toast is good and also you have a lot of drinks choices. the staff is friendly
Sasha IriFebruary 20, 2015Hipster place with good food, service and lively laidback atmosphere. I tried the gingerbread latté and baguette with goatcheese and figs and I wasn't disappointed at all :)
Jakub LebedaApril 13, 2016Terrace in the summer is a great spot to get a coffee or lemonade and chill. They do know how to make coffee and have great variety of brands.
Yasemin DereliMarch 17, 2014Great cafe/bookstore with cool interior design, friendly staff and interesting choices of food and drinks. Prices are relatively good. Worth trying while waiting your bus! :)
When I'm in Bratislava, this is my home. I don't drink cofee, but I love this hipster place for its lemonades, cakes and atmosphere.
Julia PalenovaAugust 9, 2015Trendy, modern cafe with a good choice of quick meals and take aways. Average coffee but good enough for a quick cuppa. Slovakian ginger beer, home brewed drinks and local produce.
Sophie van GoethemMay 16, 2017Chilled spot to work, have a coffee and relax. Although the temptations to buy books in the integrated bookstore is hard to resist!- Réka ManonJune 30, 2016The athmosphere is very unique I liked the turquise sofa in the window! The tomato-hummus was good but price/portion amount disappointing.
Adam OkruhlicaSeptember 16, 2013The interior design rocks. The attention to detail is fascinating. Plus you even get educated while drinking tap water!
Rajesh HuriaFebruary 2, 2015Very good brunch and coffee place.. avocado sandwich was just great. they have good collection of books too. pretty hip place.
Philip LoutsisSeptember 8, 2017Great menu and the book store is great. Friendly service and good for English speakers.
Carla DíazDecember 26, 2013I'm in love with this place, extremely nice! Attention and service is really great too. Try the hot chocolates, best I ever had.
Gkika AggelikiNovember 23, 2017Very warm atmosphere...probably the best place to have a coffee or a drink..
Adam VeselyOctober 8, 2017No breakfast till 12:00 at weekends :-/. However perfect atmosphere and nice stuff. Write your favorite book title on the wall on toilet! :-)
Nice place with "un"traditional meals, but for hipsters are traditional. I love cold brew - coffee prepared without boiled water ...
Tobias FreitagSeptember 21, 2015Ideal spot to have a book and some 3rd wave coffee specialties. Nice smoothies and cakes.- Thea KučerováJuly 6, 2016Great for drinks, food and even shopping for design books and eco cosmetics :)

Mike GajdosFebruary 29, 2016A great place..relaxed atmosphere ..friendly service ..a very good cup of coffee.
Danka KellerováJanuary 11, 2015Ultra hipster cafe place. Quite overpriced for Bratislava though. Cosy atmosphere, great service, wide selection of specialty coffees but price does not correspond to quality.
nice interior, however bit hipster. try home made mango lasi. definitely worth visit.
- Nice service and I like seats near window, but there was bad WiFi..

"Great mall. Looks fresh. The bathrooms are awesome. The selection of shops is OK, with a few great stores that aren't of the usual “shopping mall 101” variety."
