The café boasts rustic loft-style vibes, with a beautiful and moody vintage interior. The space is adorned in muted brown and grey tones with dim lighting, high ceilings, along with exposed and raw brick walls. You’ll even find some vintage “antique” items like retro salon chairs, telephone, typewriter and more to add to the nostalgic ambience!
