A-ONE义大利咖啡馆

very aesthetic and 'secretive' vibe type of cafe. easy to miss as it is very narrow but once you go up the stairs, it gives you a nice view from down below. we ordered mamba, blue mountain, and strawberry latte. all of them taste really good! the owner is such a cool guy as well.

Very local coffee and bar. Owner speaks English so well. Reasonable price and tasty coffee. Highly recommended.

Love the old-school look of this cafe. I had been to the ximending area 2-3 times. But didn’t know there was a hidden GEM old-school cafe here. My grandma first time in Taiwan and she couldn’t find any coffee that suited her taste until we walked past here. Instead like other baristas. Once we order coffee they just do a cup for us. There is this uncle barista who asks her how she usually drinks her coffee. Like strong? Like sweet and other… IN THE END, MY FAMILY MEMBERS AND I GOT THE SHOCK OF OUR LIFE. My grandma usually doesn’t complement any food or drink. She told us this was the coffee she was looking for! Onward her trip needs coffee in the afternoon or evening this will be the place she asked us to get for her. Sadly this cafe only opens at noon. Hahaha, my grandma has to drink the hotel coffee to get over her coffee addiction Oh ya, side note for others! They have two prices, one is for the seat in the cafe and one is for takeaway!

I ordered the 特濃 coffee and the Fruit Tea, it tasted fantastic. Not recommended for people who don’t like thick and strong coffee. There is a loft type super steep stairway if you are sitting upstairs. Elderly or young children will have difficulty going up. The owner, a young chap is very friendly and service oriented.

Best espresso in Taiwan! Creamy, rich, just perfect!! The rose tea is quite a refreshing beverage, great for hydration after a long walk on the district.

Little nice bar and coffee place with a relaxed roof top terrace. Drinks (alkoholisches snd iced coffee) and service are very good. We didn’t like to have a lot of smokers of cigarettes and cigars around us. It’s bothering a lot donee didn’t want to hang here longer and wouldn’t come back for that reason. The terrace in the roof is nice though, in the middle of the city yet in front of a parking garage.

Had an amazing experience there: a late night coffee, looking at the night market throught the light Asian rain. Note they accept cash only.

Amazing "secret" bar/coffee shop, the terrace and balcony with a busy street view is awesome!!! The inside decoration and atmosphere is really special. UNIQUE (if u like uncommon style) !!!
