Absolutely rate this place. I have been going regularly for a year now, and I would not stop going. For various reasons: atmosphere, the three different guys working day during the week are super top, the music every morning, the vibe in the terrace when it's sunny. This cafe is my highlight every morning

Absolutely beautiful. A tiny little piece of atmosphere, good music and an outstanding coffee. Super nice staff too. (@café: saw you replying to another review you'd move to the other side of Berlin just for them. Come to Prague! :) )
