Ronald DLJuly 22, 2021Tea drinkers will find here a great selection of leaf tea. They have black, white, green and infusions on offer. Have a traditional biscuit to go with it in this caffe and bookstore.

Dávid ŠimkoJuly 21, 2016We visited Trieste as tourists and it immediately stole our hearts! This caffeterie is cherry top of the cake, beautiful, nice historic interior and nice staff with style, definitely reccomended! <3

Rok AmonJune 3, 2017I mean...yeah the atmosphere is perfect. The coffee on the other hand is just ok. And I'd expect it to be great for 2,5€ for a cappuccino. Also 5€ for a tiramisu? I guess i'll stick to the books.

Alessia BuffoNovember 9, 2014Tornata qui 2 volte, a distanza di tempo per fare colazione con il mio ragazzo, il servizio non è cambiato: camerieri disorganizzati e per due caffè si aspetta minimo 20-30 min. Caffè storico dove?
