We came here again after a long while. The quality remained high. We got giant pancakes (Sunday menu) with good cappuccino in the cafe. Update: what amazes me is that the guys continue to keep high quality. Well done!

What an incredible place! The Coole park is beautiful with beech, oak, yew, sycamore, red and black pine trees. A few exotic as ginkgo or London plane tree. Back to the business! The cafe is run by amazing chef Cian. We tried many different items ,sharing with my wife, and all was good with an original touch. Like a salat with many different ingredients house made! Just come to see yourself if you like a good tasty food. Thank you very much for your ‘good good mission’. David and Christina

We visited this adorable cafe after our wonderful hike in the park. We tried latte and cappuccino. I wasn’t impressed with the drinks but I liked the space and the atmosphere.
