The coffee tasting here is a solid pick&mdash;three different brewing methods in one go. Nice way to get a feel for local beans. Pastries were good too, though I wished they&#39;d pair a wine flight with the tasting.

The focaccia chicken sandwich was the reason I came back. Chicken stayed juicy, bread held up without getting soggy. That little soup starter on the side was a nice touch too. Sugar-free smoothie surprised me, not overly sweet. Place was busy but service kept up fine. I&#39;d grab it again if I&#39;m in the area.

Stopped by for the chocolate tasting and honestly it was pretty cool. They walk you through the whole process, not rushed at all. The cold chocolate drink was the highlight though, super rich and smooth. Wish I&#39;d grabbed a second one to go. Place was a bit busy but worth it.

Stumbled into this cafe while killing time near the theater foyer. The apple pie with ice cream was the highlight&mdash;warm, not too sweet, and the coffee came out with this little theatrical presentation. Staff were friendly enough. Prices felt fair for the area. Wouldn&#39;t mind stopping by again if I&#39;m in the neighborhood.

Stopped by for a quick bite and ended up staying longer than planned. The owner runs the place almost solo, still found time to check if everything was alright. Had the casado and a fresh fruit juice, both solid. Portions decent for the price. Place is small, gets a bit busy around noon, but that&#39;s a good sign.

Food was good, drinks too. But man, the bill hurt. Prices are high and then they hit you with their own exchange rate on top. Felt like we paid way more than the meal was worth. Maybe I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m not the one paying. 😅

The Henry Blend is seriously like nothing I&rsquo;ve tried before 😍 so unique. Also grabbed their green smoothie to balance it out, worked really well together.

Stopped by for coffee and a slice of cake. The place has a nice, relaxed vibe. Coffee was solid, cake was decent too. Staff were friendly enough, didn&rsquo;t have to wait long. Prices are fair for what you get. Fine if you&rsquo;re in the area and need a quiet break.

Alejandro at the gift shop sorted me out&mdash;walked me through the promos, let me sample stuff, and helped me pick what I actually wanted. Solid shopping stop.

The mocha latte was really good, and the chicken panini hit the spot. Fresh ingredients for sure. Nice quiet place to hang out for a while.

The Chilean tres leches here is so good&mdash;super moist and not too sweet. Big slice too, perfect for sharing with friends. Definitely coming back for this one 😋
