Lisboa · since 2022
Slow moments in a fast city.
Six cafés in Lisbon, one roastery, and coffee sourced from producers around the world through trusted partners. Sit down, stay a while — or take a bag home.

Roasted weekly in our own Lisbon roastery. Single origins and blends for filter, espresso and everything in between.

All cafés & hoursOur roastery
We roast it ourselves, here in Lisbon.

Great food and very friendly staff! One of my top brunch spots in Lisboa.
Great speciality coffee, but they have other great options like Cacao and Homemade Chai Latte.
Real Speciality coffee. Great batch brew and cold brew. I'm coming back every day I'm staying in Lisbon. The food was very good as well
We were very satisfied with everything we ate. I would definitely recommend it.
Very good coffee, but be aware there's no air conditioning, so takeaway is best.
One of the nicest, friendliest and helpful staff. The food was good too 😋
