Specialty coffee shop in central Benidorm: Axel returned after years living in the UK to open this space, where he roasts the coffee he serves himself with nothing hidden behind it. The cheesecakes come from Miri Cheesecakes, alongside other homemade cakes (carrot, white chocolate brownie, yoghurt and orange sponge) and lactose-free options for those who need them. A relaxed atmosphere with music playing, outdoor seating for sunny hours, and a 4.8 on Google with over 500 reviews that speak for themselves.
