I visited this place twice. On my first trip, I went late in the afternoon, & it was surprisingly quiet. I was hoping to find something sweet, but most of the desserts were already gone, so I didn't get anything. The last four pictures & video are from my first visit.

I returned the next day for breakfast. As I expected, it was quite busy. So, be ready for that! There are limited indoor & outdoor seating options. I got the cinnamon roll & an almond croissant, & both were delicious.

We thoroughly enjoyed 2 breakfasts here.  My husband enjoyed the chocolate almond pastry along with some delicious hot chocolate.  I had great breakfasts with an apple crumb pastry, a pecan maple muffin & a small cranberry orange loaf with walnuts.  (if you ask they will warm up the pastries for you) Everything was delicious & the staff is so friendly.  Thanks so much!

We ordered the pecan tart & the chocolate almond croissant. We were given a plain almond croissant that was terrible. It was dry & dense & flavorless. The almond texture was strange. I took two bites & threw the rest away. It was the worst croissant I've ever tasted. The pecan tart was better, but we agreed it was just ok. Not sure if it was an off day, or if it's just one of those Instagram places everyone says is good & really isn't, but we agreed it wasn't worth a redo.

The coffee was great but their bakery items were amazing! My partner had the chocolate almond croissant & the paste was melt-in-your-mouth outstanding. I had this brilliant raspberry & chocolate something or other pastry that I am still actively dreaming about. It was pure heaven. You know those times where you wished you picked what the other person was having? Nope, not this time / we were planning to split & share them but we loved ours so much we only just barely parted with the little samples we gave each other. This place is allllll the stars & I can't wait to go back!!

The almond croissant was delicious that I went back in the afternoon to get some more for the trip. The chicken wrap was also good. However, I didn't like the pistachio coffee as it didn't taste anything like pistachios & the coffee was dark roasted which probably overpowered the pistachios flavour. Little too pricey given the location of the cafe. It's close to all the touristy places in old city.
