• Atmosphere: Located right on the waterfront in Kennedy Town, Hong Kong Island, the cafe boasts large windows or a second-floor area offering views of the sea and passing ships. Many say it offers a "chill" and "escape from the hustle and bustle of the city."
• Decor: The interior uses a minimalist white color scheme, combined with natural light, creating a modern, clean, and Instagram-friendly feel. This makes it a great spot for those seeking a photo opportunity.
• Coffee and Menu Quality: Many reviews praise the coffee's delicious, balanced flavor and the brand's reputation. While some say it's "not amazing," overall, it exceeds expectations for a seaside cafe.
• Best Time: If you choose to visit in the afternoon or evening, you can enjoy coffee while watching the sunset, an experience many reviewers say is "worth it."
• If you want to relax in style: If you visit in the afternoon or evening, choose a second-floor seat near the window for a sea view, coffee, and a "relaxing" experience.
• If you want to work or use your laptop: Check the opening hours. If you come during off-peak hours, the atmosphere is more peaceful.
• If you're into photography: This shop is incredibly beautiful. A popular photo spot is the exterior, with its large % logo and the sea view at sunset.
• If you're only expecting "great coffee," adjust your expectations a bit. The coffee tastes good, but you'll have to compromise on "price and location," partly due to the atmosphere.
• Recommended seating: Good-view areas tend to be crowded, or if you come in the evening or around sunset, you may have to wait or find a seat near the window.
• Price and value: Some people find the shop beautiful and the view impressive, but the coffee is quite expensive. While the taste is good, it's not "excellent" for the price.
• Location and accessibility: Although it's not far from the MRT, it's located in a corner of the station, which may require a short walk. And roadside/beachfront areas can be quite noisy and windy.
• Best time: If you want to "sit down" and work or relax in peace, you might feel "crowded," especially during the afternoon and evening hours.
