Crema's Take
“Five Flies splits its personality into two distinct zones: a laptop-friendly front counter for quick work sessions and a beautifully vintage back room explicitly designed as a no-device sanctuary where you're meant to linger over espresso drinks and excellent pastries. The thoughtful separation creates two completely different experiences in one shop, so you get to choose whether you're here to hustle or to actually sit still and notice the aesthetics around you. Staff and regulars consistently praise the quality of both the coffee and baked goods, plus the genuinely welcoming vibe that makes it feel like a neighborhood spot rather than a tourist trap.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

I must say that this coffee spot was an absolute amazing find. The cold brew coffee was good and the pastries and croissants were so yummy. Atmosphere was very relaxing with the vintage decor and the back quiet lounge was so peaceful. The owner was so sweet and amazing to us.
This coffeeshop is a hidden gem, run by the sweetest people! Not only is the coffee delicious, the pastries are also warm and delicious. Not only is the food and drink excellent, the ambiance was also warm and refreshing. The decor gives antique, old school vibes. Excellent…
I needed a coffee shop open later 6 so I googled and happened to find this place. I’m so glad I did! It was really welcoming and a chill vibe. The staff is super chill. The drinks I think are reasonably priced and they taste good. The interior aesthetic is fun. The front half is…
