Leur cappuccino est franchement incroyable. Il est servi à bonne température et peut donc être consommé sans avoir à attendre qu'il refroidisse. Le tout avec une mousse tellement onctueuse. N'étant pourtant pas une fan de café, j'y retournerais rien que pour ça, c'est dire ! En plus, ils proposent en version lait végétal ou sans lactose. Niveau panettones, je trouve leur concept génial. Il y a grosso modo 3 options de taille, les gros (500 g je crois), les petits (100 g) ou alors en tranche. Les petits se déclinent en une multitude de parfums différents et il y a 3 panettones disponibles à la tranche. J'ai goûté la version ananas/fraises. Délicieux !!! La dame qui m'a servi était très sympathique et a pris le temps de m'expliquer tout ce que j'avais besoin de savoir. Belle déco également. La peinture sur les murs (citrons) a été faite à la main. Finalement, il est important de relever qu'il n'y a pas de places assises. J'ai donc consommé au bar (pas un problème pour moi).

Petite parenthèse italienne en plein cœur de Genève, où la qualité des produis proposés se conjuguent avec l’amabilité des personnes tenant cette adresse. Le café (ristretto pour ma part) est sans doute un des meilleurs que l’on peut boire en centre ville. Merci ! Je recommande à 100%.

Petite pause en vélo pour un café et un Panettone tout était très bon et la serveuse extrêmement agréable et serviable. En terrasse pour profiter de la terrasse ainsi que du soleil. Ceci m'a donné des forces pour les derniers kilomètres. Merci

I had the most wonderful experience. Staff was extremely polite, service spotless and my flat white a pleasure! This place has been added to my list of "best coffee places" in Geneva ! I look forward to my second visit - which will definitely include some artisan pastries like Panettone <3 ! Recommended!
