"Amazing tea. Our server (Rebecca) was so lovely and maintained a wonderful attitude even though the cafe was quite busy and it was clear she had a lot of things to do. Recommended me the Mango infused black tea which I had, and my friend had the Earl Gray. Absolutely loved it here, can’t recommend it enough."

Also the prizes were really reasonable and the menu was diverse from everything old and familiar to new unique flavors, not to mention that everything we had was delicious! Super happy we found our way into this coffee shop, and we are sure to return when we find ourselves in Brasov again!"

"We were doing a tour and Brasov and had an hour in the city. We chose to grab a coffee here and ended up ordering a Viennese Coffee which was pretty much a latte with whipped cream on it. Tasted really nice, the employee was really friendly and the seating in this place is really cosy and welcoming. You can pay with cash or card here as well. Overall nice place for a drink."

"Great Atmosphere — Slight Pricing Mix-Up I stopped by Shakespeare Coffee & Poetry in downtown Brașov for a quick espresso and really enjoyed the atmosphere — it’s a creative, relaxed spot that fits the name perfectly. The barista was very friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. I ordered a double espresso directly from the menu, where it was listed at 14 lei. However, when I went to pay, I was charged 17 lei for a “special roast” without being informed about the price difference beforehand. I even pointed out the menu price while ordering, so that lack of communication was a bit disappointing. That said, the coffee itself was good, and the atmosphere was cool and comfortable. Service was pleasant overall, and I would return — just with a bit more clarification on pricing next time."
