"Nice place to have some drinks. Full of trees, plants and sounds of birds it is a really lovely place to drink if you manage to find a table. We ordered drinks which were great, service was a bit slow but it seems to be the same everywhere in Barcelona. There are three toilets which weren't great, no toilet roll either which isn't ideal. Would still visit again in the future and would recommend a look if you are in the area as the birds just sound so beautiful!"

"My favourite hidden gem in Raval. The food is genuinely good, with the kimchi salad being my favourite. The drink selection is great and prices are reasonable. The atmosphere is unbeatable - it's like a quiet oasis between the loud surroundings. Honestly it's easy to forget it's so central. I can truly recommend it."

"This is one of the places that offer an original barcelona experience. The actual cafe is situated in a courtyard inside a bookstore. The terrace is beautiful with a great vibe. Lot's of tables and the ambience is great. The food and drink is pretty good and come of the cakes are really delicious. Definitely recommend visiting at least once for a different cafe experience"

"The place is awesome, very chill and the terrace is full of palm trees and greens, great spot to loosen up however the chairs could be a more comfortable one . I tried the Cod fish sandwich (3rd picture). I liked their bread pretty much, which I believe is an important part of a sandwich, but the fish taste wasn't my favorite to be fair . It's a self service concept where you have to order at the cashier and the both times I visited it took long time to order"

"I really loved the atmosphere here—it was exactly my kind of vibe. I ordered the pistachio cake and a cortado, and I was genuinely surprised by how delicious the cake was. It’s honestly one of the best cakes I’ve had in a long time! Not overly sweet, perfectly nutty, and absolutely delightful. Highly recommend this place if you’re in Barcelona!"
