Love this place to have a nice hangout with friends and kids. Spacious kids area , which is a rare find. Food is good, and fresh, and many great made to order options. The coffee is good and the brookies are yummy! The service is great, you can tell it's always made with heart. A couple drawbacks: wishing that the sandwiches were a bit more filling for the price. Not a deal-breaker because I think the product is good. The other drawback is there is not change table in the bathroom . Would be very helpful. Despitw this, I'll be coming back again and again :)

Delicious grill cheese, sandwiches and coffees. They have a kids corner which is greatly appreciated by parents. The only thing to keep in mind is that they don't have a changing table for babies. But would still strongly recommend and would go back!

The whole experience is A++. The food is great, the coffee & hot chocolate are great. Since it’s opening we came almost 2-3x a week and not strictly because of the food/drinks but also because of the staff. Always welcoming, remembers the customers & more. 100% recommend!

This cozy little café with a real Pinocchio obsession takes the humble grilled cheese extremely seriously — in the best possible way. Every sandwich is made fresh when you order it (no pre-made, reheated imposters here) and served in a basket meant for enjoying right there, while it’s perfectly warm and gloriously melty. The classic grilled cheese was everything you could hope for: outrageously cheesy without tipping into salty overload, perfectly crisped, and comfortingly indulgent. But the real fun comes from their creative variations. We tried the new Grilled Mac & Cheese, which turned out to be exactly what our imaginations had hoped for — delightfully decadent and unapologetically comforting. And the Bugia grilled cheese, filled with brie, sundried tomatoes, and goat cheese. Already a dream combination… but we added honey, and suddenly the whole thing crossed into mind-blowing territory. Sweet, tangy, creamy, crunchy — a sandwich with personality. The café itself feels like stepping into a living scrapbook. Family and friends’ photos line the walls, giving the whole space a warm, genuine charm. The tables are painted in cheerful colors that echo Pinocchio’s palette, and instead of bar stools, everyone sits comfortably — which makes it feel even more welcoming. It’s a place that works for absolutely everyone: kids, families, couples, dogs, and people like me who simply show up with a serious grilled cheese craving. There are books, games, and colouring books for kids, making it easy to linger. It’s also a surprisingly lovely place to work for a bit while enjoying a sandwich and a coffee. ✨ ☕ And if you need one more reason to visit: they offer free small coffee on Monday mornings from 7–9 am, a little act of kindness to start the week ✨ Between the thoughtful food, the playful atmosphere, and the genuinely warm people behind it all, it feels less like a café and more like a place where life just naturally happens — one perfectly grilled sandwich at a time.

Such a shame to have a cozy welcoming place be catered by relentless complaining employees whose frustrations seem to prime over simple courtesy. Grow up ladies, you’ve got paying customers, family and children who deserve better than earfuls of gripes.
