I would give it 6 Stars if I could!
Our Hotel came without breakfast, so we set out to find some... and boy did we find it!
The atmosphere is special to begin with, in a old decomissioned post office building.
My family consists of coffee lovers and they were all very happy with their respective orders. We ordered different omelettes and eggs & bacon and everything was absolutely delicious. Their juice is freshly squeezed each morning and tastes accordingly.
Staff is very friendly, place is clean and music can be heard but is not too loud.
Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful breakfast at C1 Espresso! 🍳 The atmosphere was so cozy and inviting. 🥰 The food was delicious, and my drink was perfectly made. ☕ The service was also excellent, with attentive and friendly staff. ✨

Interesting food serving concept where burger and fries and send through tubes to the seats their patrons. The interior design of the eatery was also rather unique, colonial and artistic. The coffee also packed a punch. Would recommend coming here at least once to try it out.

Good variety of tasty food, with burgers delivered via pneumatic tube and filtered water offered from an old sewing machine. Toilets are behind the bookcase! This is a fun place to bring the kids and not too expensive, with good entertainment to keep them occupied. PS It's an old post office, hence the tubes.

The food was both pleasing to the eyes and nourishing to the body. Really appreciate the healthier options with a good mix of protein, fibre and vitamins. The savoury sourdough was a stand-out :) Place was crowded when we went but service was still impeccable. Loved the outdoor dining as well.
