Es un lugar pequeñito, pero es acogedor y la comida está buenísima. El chocolate caliente con menta es una delicia, las bebidas en general y la comida son muy buenas, y el precio es accesible. Atención amable, agradable y rápida. No es un lugar para grupos grandes, pero es perfecto para citas o para ir solo

A pesar de que es un lugar pequeño, puedo confirmar que ya es una de las mejores cafeterías de León Guanajuato
