Great place for great coffee and….. the best hot chocolate in Annecy at least! There is 2 strength but the 70% isrich enough for my taste. It can be pretty so it can be hard to find a space but well worth wait a bit or even shareing a table with strangers.

Been buying my coffee grounds for a couple of months now, I've been buying the black diamond variety and it has been a great addition to my morning routine. They have a wide varieties of different coffee grounds to fit most tastes, as well as coffee machines from espresso makers fully automated and manual, to drip coffee the choice is great. If you love coffee it is a great place to go

If you looking for the best hot chocolate you’ll find it here! It’s 2 types of hot chocolate you can get: 70% and 85% and both of them deserve to be tried. Don’t be surprised-there are always lots of people. In this case they do also to take away. The desserts are also delicious. Very highly recommended !

Very good atmosphere Good coffee but not perfect. You need better baristas or train the barista pls. The best thing that it opens on Monday whereas most specialty coffee shops are closed
