"Cómo bien aclara el título es “a la barra”. Si estás al paso esta joya. Si te queres sentar en un lugar cómodo y comer, no lo recomiendo. Es chico y te sirven las cosas cómo para que te lo lleves. Además no tienen todos los productos de la carta que suele tener esta cadena (por ejemplo cosas keto)"

"Pasé a desayunar con mi esposo, porque estábamos por la zona del Hospital Británico. Muy buen servicio, aunque el local tiene espacios acotados. Los chicos que atienden súper amables. Se equivocaron al cobrarnos una promo de café con leche y tostado, y cuando mi esposo fue a avisarles para pagar la diferencia, no se la cobraron. Es un detalle mínimo, y la diferencia a pagar pequeña, pero ese gesto me hizo sentir "entre buena gente". Gracias! Seguro volvemos!"

"Es self service, el día que fuí hacia 38° el aire acondicionado estaba prendido pero el calor era insoportable, las mesas no las limpian a tiempo, el lugar tiene feo aspecto no me gustó"

"Fuimos un día a trabajar remoto desde el café. Siempre me pareció un espacio muy chico, pero la verdad que me sorprendió lo cómodo que se sentía estar ahí, aún con bastante gente en el local. Las mesas bien preparadas para conectar una notebook, el café y medialunas muy buenos, y los empleados no te hacían sentir nada incómodo de estar ahí trabajando"

"Es uno de los Café Martinez más chicos que vi, esta lindo prolijo y el ambiente es muy tranquilo a pesar de que las mesas están bastante pegadas. Los productos responden a la calidad habitual de la cadena, pedimos un ice caramel, y un capuchino frio los dos muy ricos, y un tostado árabe, estaba rico pero no era “exactamente” pan árabe. De todas formas tenia buen relleno y estaba bien tostado. La atención es muy amable y los precios son los de cualquier Café Martinez. Muchas gracias!"
