    Expensive place, but great coffee!!! 20k for iced latte and 25k for our cheesecake brownie! Got a seat by the river which is lovely!

    Great place to hangout with friends, work and socialize. They do an amazing falafel wrap, I recommend you try it! They need more chairs and tables upstairs as there is not enough space

    Nice place to sit and admire the beauty of Luang Prabang. Great coffee. I had iced latte but forgot to tell them not to put sugar. I especially loved my banana bread with espresso butter. It was amazing. My two friends and I all loved it.

    Best artisan coffee in Laos! Had a delicious flat white in the beautiful riverside setting. Plus staff extremely attentive and helpful. Also the coffee shop supports local farmers. Highly recommend

    My new favorite cafe in Laos. The menu is delicious and very creative. The banana bread with espresso butter was amazing! And the chicken and herbed-ricotta salad was refreshing. I'll definitely be back.

    Kind of expensive(for laos), but actually not really! Good quality coffee, cold drinks and cake. And you can donate money to help local people farm coffee and earn a decent wage. They use bamboo straws, they also bring you cold water and continue to top it up for you, even if you are seriously nursing that drink you bought.

    Everything I like in a good coffee shop- a variety of real coffee choices, great food, comfy and varied seating options, and nice people. Cold drip was my favorite. Falafel wrap delicious. Cheesecake brownie a big hit.

    Okay, the coffee is great -- that almost goes without saying.

    The staff is wonderful. Super friendly, ready to help. A gentleman (perhaps an owner?) was cruising around upstairs refilling complementary waters and chatting, checking up on how everyone was doing in a charming and unobtrusive way.

    And I really liked how the cafe is configured to make so many different experiences possible. I could sit across the street taking in the gorgeous view of the river with a book, whiling away the time. When I had stuff to do, I could go upstairs to a comfortable two-top and get loads done over a latte and fab banana bread. There was a couch area where a group was having a social reunion once. There was a table perfect for a work group to meet quietly. What a fantastic space, so welcoming, functional, comfortable.

    Great place to hang out. Had the pine lime crush and loved it! Greatly appreciate their values to help the local economy.

    Great place to chill - they have both in-cafe seating as well as a small bar and tables across the street by the river. The coffee is robust and strong; I didn't get a chance to try the food but there is a menu catering for hearty choices for meals. Staff is pleasant and accommodating, and it's close enough to sights (bamboo bridge and a bit of a walk to the Night Market) that it's a great stopping point for a break.

    I don't give five stars easily, but we are talking about real coffee here. And they roast it themselves. Probably the best in town. The best so far in Laos.

    The coffee here is the best in Luang Prabang. Not only do they make it, but they roast the coffee themselves and have a coffee plantation where they grow it too. The food is incredible (try the mango French toast) and the decor and layout is beautifully done. All the staff are friendly, polite and professional seeking to make sure you have the best experience. An establishment that seeks positive change, their coffee from plant to cup is ethically sourced and eco friendly. A great selection of single origin drip filters as well as your standard espresso selection.

    Great coffee. All the coffee here is made from locally sourced organic coffee grown by small planters. And the best part is that the coffee is roasted on-site.

    This became my favorite place in Luang Prabang for breakfast, lunch or just the best cup of coffee while watching the boats go up and down the Mekong River! It's a wonderful place to do nothing. Just be present and grateful!

    Australian-managed with an excellent sustainability ethos supporting hill tribe farmers. Excellent iced coffee to offset the heat of the late afternoon. Excellent service in a delightful spot.

    The coffee is superb. They roast it themselves and take their coffee very seriously. They also do excellent cakes. The tamarind and apple tart with almonds was a particular favourite. My wife and I went there every day when we were in Luang Prabang.

    Nice atmosphere, good service. Went there for a coffee, ended up having an iced mocha which was nothing special for the price.. At least I got to chill and enjoy the nice river view for an hour.

    Best coffee place in Luang Prabang for studying or talking a few hours. There's an upstairs (aircon), downstairs, and outdoor seating (beautiful river views). Gluten free brownie was one of the best I have had and very large. I have seen their coffee sold in other coffee shops in Vientiane. Very delicious.

    Great little place. The coffee is excellent and the gluten free Brownies are great. Supports hill tribes in Northern Laos where the coffee is produced. Definitely worth a visit

    Great coffee shop across from the river. The staff are VERY friendly, decent WiFi, great coffee and a solid food selection. The upstairs is air conditioned so you can escape the heat and there are a lot of outlets for your laptop if you are working like me.

    Great coffee, great food. Good variety. A/C upstairs. Expensive, esp. by local standards, but I felt it was worth the price. Would recommend.

    They have really fancy options for coffee. Soy milk available and tasty veg options. Staff are so nice and the whole idea behind the company is incredible which means the coffee is a bit pricey but splurge a little to support such an awesome company

    Not bad coffee. They are just getting into roasting their own locally sourced beans so there's going to be some variation.

    Had coffee only, iced Americano and an iced latte. The coffee was nice and service great. There is a selection of food, which we didn't try, including a gluten free brownie! They were roasting coffee at the time which you can watch and learn about. The person roasting was very friendly and explained the process.

    Fantastic coffee. Since we discovered this place, we visited everyday for our caffeine fix. Banana bread and cheesecake brownies are good too.

    Fantastic coffee and breakfast. So many pastries to choose from. Iced latte and iced mocha couldn't be more refreshing. The mango lime French toast is the perfect sweet breakfast. Highly recommend this quiet coffee and bakery.

    Delicious western style coffee with all varieties you would expect in an artisan shop anywhere (but no local brew, Lao coffee if you're after that).
    A selection of tasty cakes and pastries and hearty foods including breakfast mango French toast or gingerbread pancakes or lunchtime salads.
    On the road just by Mekong river, this place offers great location too on your way towards more wats and the royal palace.
    Prices competitive with other western-style tourist-oriented outlets but obviously more expensive than the local market (coffee ~20 000 LAK, pancakes / French toast ~34 000 LAK).
    One can also buy fair-trade Lao coffee in store.

    Perfect gorgeous coffee, lovely friendly staff, they seriously know their coffee! The food is great too. They know the growers, do the roasting and care about the coffee from tree to cup. Many different styles of coffee, and other drinks. A great place to instantly make "your local" for breakfast. You can cross the road and enjoy all this while watching the river traffic too. Too easy to like. Just go.

    Small delicious food menu, lovely staff, beautiful location. Coffee is through the roof! So many options, great fair trade business from top to bottom (from what I could see anyway)
