A classy lunch spot with very honest quality dishes. These are no deep freeze meals. Try the tomato soup to understand what I mean.

Spacious, not so loud and crowded place to eat or drink with a friends. They have upstairs with more cosy seats. I liked it a lot. Stuff was young, helpful and professional.
