The cafe offers outdoor seating near the back as well as cosy indoor tables, perfect for hanging out casually or enjoying meals.
The menu is extensive with many options for drinks and desserts as well as mains.
If you’re in Oxford, definitely check this place out as you won’t be disappointed.
We ordered wonton soup, thai tea flavour ice cream and thai latte.
Actually we wanted to get green tea ice cream, but the waitress said its not available anymore.
The wonton soup and ice cream were nice, the latte was just so so. It was too weak and plain imho.
There were a few staffs working and they were very busy, I could see the cafe was crowded.
Maybe we will come back next time to try other dishes
