Stijlvol etablissement met klassieke doch ontvangende inrichting. Bediening is vriendelijk en de sfeervolle muziek wordt steeds verzorgd door een ervaren DJ. Regelmatig vinden hier hoogstaande culturele evenementen plaats.De klasse van deze zaak blijkt voornamelijk uit het feit dat ze haast uitsluitend wordt bezocht door mensen met een universitaire achtergrond.

Legendarisch studentencafé vlakbij de campus van de VUB. Een café met een geweldige uitbater, goede prijzen en een hoop tradities. Tevens de thuisbasis van veel studentenverenigingen en de toog is een van de weinige stabiele zekerheden in het leven van menig VUB-student. Zoals dit café, bestaan er geen twee.
