Beautiful atmosphere within a majestic building right by the river. You can sit elevated by the huge windows and watch the people stroll by while enjoying a nicely prepared sandwich or natural juice. Prices are good and vintage interior decor.

We enjoyed our lunch outside here in rocking chairs watching the river go by. Had pesto chicken and vegetarian sandwich. Both really tasty. Great service. Recommend!

We came in for a light lunch and some drinks. The quality of the food is really very good. One attention point: you need to have some patience.
