Beautifully decorated,spacious, light and airy. Great coffee, sandwiches and pastries. Staff lovely and friendly. They keep the dining area and bathrooms spotlessly clean. It's only open a few weeks so I hope they maintain their great standard as I would like to bring my visitors there for lunch every time

Great addition to local places for coffee and food. Spotlessly clean, very spacious and airy with high ceilings. This Panaderia/Cafe has a nice vibe with welcoming staff. The coffee was nice and hot and tasted excellent . There is an good selection of cakes and the prices are reasonable for such an upmarket place.

Very nice cinnamon roll with pistachios and good coffee, just a shame the staff didn't smile and no thank you or goodbye when we left.
