This cafe has serious style inside — but it was such a nice day that we couldn’t resist eating outside. Very friendly staff, and was impressed by the attention to detail in our meals — fresh ingredients, and nice flavour touches. Also, the coffee cake was seriously one of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommended if you’re in Waterloo.

Yesterday my friends suggested to meet at Sissi Buvette to celebrate my friends and my birthday. With no expectations I entered a very interesting building (see from the outside) only to be in awe of the interior. We ended up spending many hours in a fantastic ambiance, great music and delicious food and drinks. I’ll be back soon again, very soon!

Great cozy spot in downtown Waterloo. I stopped by for an ice coffee and had a quick game of Connect Four. They have a selection of games (crib, scrabble, cards) to play in their cafe and some books on the shelf. The staff were super friendly and the service was quick. I will return to try out their food items.
