Super nette Bedienung! Als ich das erste mal hier war und kein Bargeld dabei hatte, wurde mir ein Kaffee spendiert. Ich bin dann einige Tage später zurück gekommen, um die Rechnung zu begleichen.

Eine schöne, gemütliche Bistrolokal. Freundliche Bedienung, einfache, köstliche Essen und frische Baklava. Dazu eine schöne italienische Kaffee. Was will man mehr?

Tolle Erfahrung im Kaffeekanne! Ein sehr angenehmes und freundliches Lokal! Das Essen war wirklich extrem lecker – wir hatten das Fleisch-Sandwich, und es war einfach hervorragend. Die Bedienung war super freundlich und aufmerksam, man hat sich rundum wohl gefühlt. Wir kommen definitiv wieder – vielen Dank für den tollen Service!

This place was amazing, first time in Basel. Mahir was super friendly, we were outside enjoying the patio but were a little bit too cold, we asked for blankets and he did brought us two large blankets. We are used to hot weather. Great service and very affordable prices, and on top of all that, he was very GORGEOUS.
