Great atmosphere, different cozy rooms, we sat at the Africa section. Large selection of teas at very good prices (€5), I tried the Lapacho and find it very much to my liking. Polite and friendly English-speaking service. Highly recommended!

Quite a unique experience. We were a group of five and loved the overall vibe. It's an interesting idea to use a bomb shelter as a tea room. Service was great, the tea was unusual and very original & still great

Absolutely lovely place. The worker and the ambiance were really sweet. On a hot day, it's the perfect temperature (since it's a former bunker) and all their teas can be made cold/iced, which was perfect on a hot day.

We discovered that place by pure luck and we stayed for more than 3 hours! It was tastefully decorated, each seating area had a different atmosphere and culture it was associated with, the teas were wonderful and Alex was very knowledgeable of everything: she let us brew our own teas and her recommendations were perfect for both of us. I just regret leaving and not having the time to come back. That would be for next time! Highly recommend if you want to have a break and enjoy warm or ice tea in a relaxing atmosphere that'll transport you around the world. A must!
