Stop the presses and send hallelujahs to the heavens! This cafe facing the Tunis Ville train station employs baristas who know their trade and use freshly ground Illy beans to make their Italian-style coffee. It also has a sealed non-smoking section, is a welcoming space for both men and women, and offers keenly priced breakfast (2.9DT) and lunch (5.6DT) deals. Bravo.
