예전 가정집주택을 개조하여 만든 카페에요. 일단 분위기를 떠나서 카페는 커피맛이 좋아야하는데, 이곳 커피는 진하고 깊은맛이 있어서 테이크아웃도 자주 하는 편입니다. 라떼와 플랫화이트가 너무 맛있어요. 카페앞에 주차장도 넓직해서 편하고, 이곳은 루프탑이 있어 날 선선해지면 올라가보시길~ 구석구석 예쁜 공간이라 카메라셔터 누르기 바쁜 곳이에요.

청주시 성안로74번길에 위치 하는 빈티지풍의 커피숍입니다. 가정집을 개조한 것이 오창의 어느 커피숍과 많은 느낌을 공유 할수있는것 같습니다. 옥상을 요즘 유행하는 루프탑 으로 개조한 점도 젊은 친구들의 감성이 돋보이는 독특한 집입니다. 서울에서 한참 유행했던 풍을 많이 카피한 느낌.... 커피맛은 중상 정도되는 맛있었 고.... 실내는 개인적인 취향에는 거리감이 있었고... 오히려 밤에는 으슥한 기분이 주변 환경에서 느낄 정도였습 니다. 낮에는 제방도로 아래쪽길이라 별무리가 없겠지만 밤에는 그리 그 길을 추천하고 싶지는 않네요. 제가 가족들과 방문한 시간도 늦은 시간은 아니었는데 주변 환경이 그리 추천할만한 길은 아니었습니다. 단지 커피맛은 그런데로 괜찮은 곳이었습니다.

바로 주변에 다른 즐길거리는 많이 없지만 야외 2층에서는 무심천이 내려다보여서 시원한 풍경이예요~ 봄에는 벚꽃이 잘 보일 것 같아 명당일 것 같아요- 커피맛은 산미가 강한 편이라 산미를 싫어하시는 분들은 넛츠크레마같은 달달한 음료를 드시면 좋을 듯 하고, 푸딩처럼 나오는 초코맛 나는 얼그레이 케이크와 계란 반죽이 살아있는 촉촉한 까눌레도 맛있었어요~ 무엇보다 인더스트리얼 인테리어가 예쁜 카페였네요 :)

What a wonderful place! It is located right beside mushimstream, so the view fro. The top was very cheerful! I was there when the sakura flower was in full bloom. I don't think I can forget that beautiful afternoon.

Enjoyed the hole in the wall theme. Good coffee on coushined wall seating and leather arm chairs. Small baked coffee cakes with carmelized topping was great to-go treat.
