Agradable cafetería, mur cercana al iglesia de San Mateo. Productos de alta calidad, el café muy rico, si te gusta cargado lo puedes pedir así, las crepas tambien están muy bien prepradas. El lugar tiene un aire campirano y puede ser muy relajante si quieres descansar un momento. Tienen bebidas frías y calientes, así como varios alimentos. Solo abren por las tardes y días festivos todo el día. Excelente atención.

No es el más barato de los lugares, pero están ricos los platillos y el servicio fue bueno. Conviene ir un poco temprano porque se llena rápido.
