Espresso bar atmosphere

Craft, warmth & community in Addis Ababa

Built around a warm espresso bar & small kitchen.

Founded on a simple principle: doing a few things remarkably well every single morning. From bean dialing to croissant folding, we take time so you can pause.

Coffee dialed like a ritual.

Every morning at 06:30 AM, our baristas re-calibrate grind size, water temperature, and extraction timing against precise shot timers. We feature rotating seasonal single-origin beans sourced directly from sustainable high-altitude Ethiopian farms in Yirgacheffe, Guji, and Sidamo.

Whether you prefer a velvety flat white, a clean pour-over, or a sharp double espresso — every cup is poured with intention.
