Eslite Café Xinyi Branch

Delighted to rest after a while walking shops to bookstores; Tasty americano; wine house and cheesecake.

This café is located inside one of the biggest Eslite stores in Taiwan. If you enjoy just lounging around while reading a book or be inside a café that's relatively quieter, then this place is for you. It also has a view of Taipei 101 and the surrounding buildings to boot. Their dishes aren't too expensive and I would say it's around the range of prices around the area. They have English and photos in their menu and they accept local and foreign credit cards.

Pleasantly surprised. The brown sugar latte is quite delicious especially they serve you chocolate with it. We went on the weekday and weekend. When we went on the weekend, there was a minimum spending of $170 per person. They don’t seem to have the same restriction during weekdays.

I went around lunchtime on a weekday and it was a bit busy, but still had plenty of seating. I was surprised that they have actual meals such as beef noodle, which I will try next time. However I didn’t have much time so I ordered some bread and a tiramisu latte. The latte may or may not have had coffee in it, but the taste was nice and the bread was great. A bit overpriced.

Strong flavour, high end ingredients, albeit slightly expensive. Would definitely go again.
