Een werkelijk prachtig café met een charmante, ouderwetse bruine inrichting die je meteen het gevoel geeft dat je in een warm en gezellig huiskamer bent beland. Het interieur ademt een authentieke sfeer uit, vol karakter en nostalgie, waardoor je je meteen thuis voelt. Het personeel is uiterst vriendelijk en professioneel, en draagt perfect bij aan de ontspannen en fijne ambiance die hier heerst. Dit is echt een plek waar je keer op keer naar terug wilt komen om te genieten van de geweldige sfeer en de uitstekende service.
