"I came across this café about 15 minutes from the Vatican and it turned out to be one of the nicest stops of my trip. I tried the croissant with cream and it was outstanding fresh, soft, and full of flavour, probably one of the best pastries I’ve had in Rome. I also had two coffees, an Americano and a flat white, and both were excellent. The Americano was smooth and rich without being bitter, while the flat white had a creamy texture with a perfect balance of milk and coffee. You can tell they put care into every detail. The café itself is bright and modern, with big windows that bring in natural light and create a relaxed atmosphere. It feels like the kind of place where you can take a break from sightseeing or sit down to work for a while. The staff were warm, friendly, and attentive, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Even though I only tried one pastry this time, the quality left a strong impression and makes me want to come back and explore more of the menu. This is definitely a spot worth visiting if you’re looking for excellent coffee and pastries near the Vatican, away from the usual tourist places."

"wow, amazing caffe. I walked for over an hour befor sunrise to make it in time for a view point and to beat the que (partly a success). But wow , I had the cappuchino which did come a but cold because they were busy, but still well made, smooth and strong. With that I tried the moon love coffee paistry and the fruit danish. It's the first time I ever take 2 paistries in one sitting, but I had to try. Of course I had to fight myself not to finish them. The moon love coffe was my favorite, with an amazing light multi-thin-layerd crust, filled with a creamy not too sweet coffee custered, and topped with a fluffy coffe cream. The second was Deliciouse as well with grapes and vanilla custered."

"Fantastic cafe for coffee and pastries. We came here for a quick breakfast before our Vatican tour due to it's great location 2 blocks down from the Vatican Museum entrance. All the pastries were delicious and service was friendly and efficient. Fantastic coffees with different roasts and blends to choose from. We had the cinnamon roll, chocolate croissant and croissant crema. Crispy texture with just the right amount of filing in each one. Highly recommend coming here if you are into your baked goods!"

"One of the best espressos ever with amazing prices! The spinach croissants were sooooo creamy and buttery and flaky and dreamy! The staff was so friendly and nice enough to let us take 2 extra croissants home once they closed."

"YUMMM!! We went on a Friday at 11am and queued for takeaway (~15 mins max). Expect way longer queue if you want a table. Everyone was so lovely and helpful! I ordered an oat cortado (~€2), an apple pastry (~€3,50) and a hazelnut bun which was their special (6€), we were in and out in 5 mins. The hazelnut bun was filled with a nutella kind of pasta and topped with lemon cream which I didnt think worked great but the pastry itself was great just minus the lemon :D definitely recommend as a quick breakfast on the way to the Vatican Museum! ⭐"

"Small shop good food. Had pain suisse and it was amazing fluffy and crispy. Had another pastry and all of them were good honestly. I was aiming to have brunch but they close the kitchen for brunch at 12 pm so you have to plan well. Good coffee as well ordered a cold brew and it really surprised me."

"The atmosphere of this cute little coffee shop was a great place to start the day. There was a small wait in line but typical for breakfast places in Italy, but overall the service and staff were polite and seemed to enjoy their work. It was a great value for the money and the food was decent for being mostly bread (I don't eat a lot of bread for breakfast). The location was very close to the Vatican City tour starting location so it was perfect to grab a bite and a drink."

"Love the atmosphere. Probably the best croissant in the city. And the coffee? Simply exceptional — a flavour to be enjoyed in every sip. As a coffee expert , I can confidently say that after spending a week in Rome, this is one of the best coffees I’ve had in the city."
