Espresso pulled inside a half-ruined wall, cocktails under red neon after dark. Thirteen years, three lives, one rule: treat guests like friends. 在一面没修的废墙里出咖啡,天黑了换红霓虹和雪克壶。十三年,三代店,一条规矩:待客如友。

“Half the wall is missing. That’s the design. You order a flat white through a ruin, and at 9 PM the whole room turns red.” 「墙是故意不修的。白天你隔着废墟点一杯咖啡,晚上九点,整间屋子变成红色。」

Espresso
in the ruins
废墟里的
一杯浓缩

Raw brick, broken plaster, sunlight falling through the gaps — and a proper flat white on a steel tray. The contrast is the point. Come on a citywalk, leave two hours later. 裸砖、断墙、阳光从缺口里漏进来——然后一杯认真做的咖啡放在钢盘上端给你。反差就是设计。citywalk 路过进来歇脚,一坐就是两小时。

Then the room
turns red
然后整间屋子
变成红色

Same counter, different physics. The espresso machine rests, the shaker comes out, and the back bar lights up like a darkroom. Gin, amaro, barley tea, whiskey — the menu reads like a mixtape. 同一个吧台,换一套物理规则。咖啡机休息,雪克壶上场,酒墙亮得像暗房。金酒、苦味酒、大麦茶、威士忌——酒单读起来像一张混音带。

明星朋友,
意外到访

Over the years, celebrities kept turning up — some passing by, some brought by regulars, some here to shoot. Every visit, we count as a small affirmation. 开店这些年,陆续有一些明星朋友意外到访。有的是路过坐下喝了一杯,有的是老客人介绍来的,有的是为环境商务合作而来。每一次相遇,我们都当作是小小的肯定。

  • Golden hour hits the broken wall around sunset — then stay for the neon.日落前后废墙的光最好看,拍完正好无缝衔接夜酒。
  • The red-neon corner is the most-shot spot in the room. You’ll know it.红霓虹角落是全店出片率最高的位置,一眼就能认出来。
  • Order the Orange Street first. Trust the process.第一杯先点橘子大街,相信流程。
