Spot Café Lumière - Red Balloon

Chill cafe with some creative sweetie desert, if you like sugar, you will like here.

Coffee was alright but service was lacking. The waiters chatted way too loud.

Go for the architecture and space, not for the food and drinks. The service was also spotty, so it's unlikely that I'll visit again, especially with so many other options in the area.

There are many different types of tea and herbs for tea. Delicious brunch and salad, also kind of coffee you could choose what you want. Even the beer which made in Taiwan, named Taiwan Head Brewer, is good to drink in this summer.

Service is really bad and extremely slow. We're ordered 1 coke, 1 ginger ale and 1 americano. After 15 minutes of waiting they bring us only the bill. When asking for our drinks the waiter tells us "sorry it takes a while because it's freshly made".... coke, ginger ale and americano???? That's maybe why the coke is NT$ 100. I do not recommend this place!

Good view and location. Nice place to have a meal/afternoon tea with friends or a discussion after watching a movie together. The whole atmosphere is enjoyable. Toilet is enjoyable too (that's really important.) Minus one star since tea is pricy and small. But it's ok since this area is expensive. Still a nice place to come every now and then for high quality experience.

good

Come here for coffee and dinner, in my heart because this building was the US Consulate in Taipei at the Japanese occupation in 1926. It was also the official residence of the US ambassador before 1979. It is located opposite the Royal Hotel in the second section of Zhongshan North Road, Taipei, Taiwan. The two-story building that was started building in 1925 and opened house in 1926 was about a hundred years old. Whether it is a third level monument or a "Taipei House", his value lies in his historic tracks, and the value for using currently as the film association is still to be evaluated. As a coffee house, it should bring a historical atmosphere to enhance the real value in a professional perspective. I as a visitor went back to the past through time and space, entered the historical era, drank coffee and used meals. Ask me if I will come again? Even this is my second time here, I can’t feel it with a big loss. 來這邊喝咖啡用餐，純因這建築是1926年日治時期前美國駐臺北領事館，亦是1979年以前是美國大使官邸，位於臺灣臺北市中山北路二段老爺飯店對面，是一棟日治時代的1925年開工、1926年啟用的兩層洋樓建築，約接近百年了。 不管是否是三級古蹟，或是「臺北之家」，他的價值在於他的經歷，目前做為spot 電影協會的價值另待評估。做為一間咖啡屋，其實賣的還是這棟建築。以保護這建築，我給100分，以經營一個餐點，專業的角度還有很大的空間。 我是以一個穿越時空的人回到過去，進入歷史年代，喝著咖啡、用著餐。問我還會來嗎？這是我第二次來，我可以感覺，不過有很大的失落。
