Zhongzheng District, Taipei City｜Spot Café Lumière

The service is excellent and the crew is very attentive and kind. They topped up my hot water twice without even me asking. They also brought drinking water once I got seated. Great place to people-watch and rest your legs after all shopping around.

It's a pleasant little cafe attached to a movie theatre. The menu is kind of small, and there were not many wait staff when I visited on a Thursday afternoon but it is OK. The place is designed to be a relaxing rest stop for artsy people anyway. I met with a friend. We ordered a sake-draft beer mix and a Chinese tea, and we sat for two hours. No one rushed us and we easily had a deep conversation here without shouting. Both items we ordered were flavorful. I could also smell food in the air, and hear light music, too. If you can get a window seat, you can also enjoy the quiet view of Taipei the busy city. Overall, this is a perfect secret hide-out for people who enjoy the art district, or as a rest area exploring the exhibitions.

Very friendly service, food and drinks are pretty good.
