Castor Coffee Club
Discovered for the first time on a winter evening 6 of December, Castor Coffee has captured my caffeinated heart. Although I insisted on visiting one of the "chain stores", it was my company that insisted, that there is more space in Castora. More space, more coffee, more inspiration. It was all true - and I have a hard time finding faults.
Standard, orders are processed both in "take-away" and "on-site" versions. The size of the drinks and the prices are mostly similar to Starbucks. The little mocha is not small at all, and the served muffins or croissants with chocolate are perfect, a sinful complement to the breakfast of every lover of sweet pastries - and a must-have, when neither the weather, nor do they add humor. You know, that there are many places, in which we will pay less than the average 8-12 zlotys for a small coffee, but the fact is worth noting here, that Castor Coffee is located practically in the heart of Krakow - it attracts many tourists - and orders are carried out impeccably.
At first glance, there is little space. Ot, place, in which you order a mug of warming chocolate, he closes the lid and runs away to work. Several armchairs, double seats at tables arranged next to glass panes in a rectangular room. Late in the morning or in the evenings, you should not expect a miraculous revelation in the form of a free space preserved especially for a late lover of a good injection of energy. However, there is always hope, that there will be something underground for the unexpected visitor. The steep side of the counter can be seen, spiral staircase leading down - to, neither less nor more, cavities. I guess, that these dungeons must have already existed in the past. Anyway, contribute largely to an undeniably captivating climate and a sense of privacy and isolation, that Castor Coffee customers can enjoy.
During several visits to this place, I have already tried the Christmas mocha white coffee with cinnamon - so far I have only met with it at Starbucks, therefore a big plus for such a cafe white crow. Then it's time for a regular mocha. Both are really delicious, although for people who usually sweeten, I advise you to abandon this habit - the drink itself is sweet, not to mention syrup or whipped cream. I have never waited longer than for an order 5 minutes, even in hours, where traffic was at its peak.
Hygiene and cleanliness of the place are impeccable. The same goes for express and friendly service. The very location of the cafe is perfect for weekend trips with friends. Castor Coffee is also the perfect place for a minor rendez-vous. I would rather not recommend this place for a very formal business meeting - it may be distracting by the mood and music inadequate to a potential serious situation, dim lights or a large number of visitors.
Summa summarum, if you like experimenting with coffee, and at the same experience a whole host of positive aesthetic impressions, I definitely recommend Castor Coffee.
