It's a unique cafe & coffee shop, the interior is amazing, the coffee travels between departments through an instalation 100% made in Romania, specially designed for this place, so it's a must to see it with your own eyes. They use only 4 sortiments of fresh coffee: Fraijanes Guatemala, Gitura Kenya, Sidamo Ethiopia si Tarrazu Costa Rica. I tried only the Ehiopian one, I totally recommend it if you like it strong!
