Um pequeno espaço mas enormemente acolhedor. Um bar onde a amizade ganha expressão acompanhada de uma excelente garrafeira. O sítio ideal para descomprimir do stress do dia-a-dia. Até as paredes confessam sentimentos.

Excelente café, para ver o Benfica com a família, do melhor. Tanto o dono como a empregado, gente super simpática e bem disposta. Por alguma razão tem tanta clientela, aconselho vivamente

Bom para beber uns copos, preços acessíveis, com esplanada. Espaço interior ligeiramente pequeno. Casas de banho ligeiramente pequenas
