    Lunch there yesterday. Delicious. The bruschetta breakfast was very fresh and a new favorite. Defiantly worth a visit

    Basia runs a classy joint, although seems never quite to be happy with it. On the one hand, this means By Basia will always get better. On the other hand, it means there's always a hint of stress in the air.

    The food and coffee here is always good, and sometimes great. Ricotta... Read more

    By Basia has been a regular hang out for me and my mates on many a hung-over morning. They always pay special attention to making sure your coffee is just right.

    A step away from the hustle and bustle, this is a nice place to enjoy a relaxed coffee with a friend or to quietly read a paper. You can enjoy a nice coffee inside -where it is nice and cosy- or out back in the courtyard.

    The food is delicious and all is hand made on site. Catering... Read more
