Our method

A useful review should help you choose.

We do not reduce cafés to one decimal number. A tiny espresso bar, a bakery with strong coffee and a serious roastery solve different problems.

What we note

Espresso balance, filter options, milk texture, bean information, comfort, smoke policy, noise and whether the place works for a quick stop or a long conversation.

How we describe food

Menu notes are based on current venue channels and public menus. We describe categories and representative dishes rather than promising that one seasonal plate will always be available.

What we avoid

Permanent claims about prices and opening hours. Those details change quickly, so every guide page carries a check date and points readers toward the café’s current channel.
