How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

I crossed all of Paris just to visit this new café. The atmosphere is cozy and the welcome warm. I was very well received by Noémie, and my iced latte was served by Clara. Being very particular about iced coffees, the one I was offered was...

The place is super relaxing and the welcome is so warm! I had a flat white with oat milk (so good) and a matcha/white chocolate brownie (also so good) 😍 I recommend it 1000% ❤️ Can't wait to try everything!!

A small, quiet, and relaxing café, both in terms of its decor and the warm, welcoming service. They served Fèves coffee for espresso on opening day. Filter coffee will likely be added soon, as will savory options. For now, they offer cookie...

Such good coffee! We had a delicious Americano and flat white. Small seating area inside and nice patio outside. Very recommended. Slow service though.

A very cozy coffee shop, perfect for settling in with your laptop and a latte. The savory menu is good but a bit pricey for the portions (€8 for a Scandinavian breakfast consisting of an egg, slices of bread, and cheese), even though it was...

Price is far too expensive… what a shame

Good for

  • Specialty coffee and matcha lovers
  • Casual remote work or reading in a calm setting
  • Dog owners looking for a pet-friendly café

Avoid if

  • You are in a rush and need fast service
  • You require spacious seating for a larger group
  • You are looking for decaffeinated options
