Lovely pastry shop- many different cakes and coffees and great service. I had the Cartagena cake- very moist and light and the cheesecake was delicious too. Recommended.

Lovely place with good free wi fi for those visiting Cartagena. Cappuccinos were delicious and so were the pastries, we also had a bagel, the Murcian pie and some toast with tomato. Only observation is that they kind of suggest that there is a slot of time they expect costumers to stay for…

Cakes were amazing great portions and deliciously made. Service was outstanding - one young woman doing everything on her own - full cafe inside and some outside tables were taken. She had a perfect system which worked well. Really great experience we will back to our favourite cake cafe in Cartagena. Thank you!!
