Cafe la Cyma - Winterthur

Das Lokal ist sehr angenehm eingerichtet, gemütliche Atmosphäre und gute Getränke, nette Bedienung,,

Nicht zu Glauben, es gibt sie noch! Trendig, lässig und unkompliziert! Sogar die Haare kann Mann und Frau sich machen lassen! Das Konzept ist genau das, was die neue Szene braucht... Kein 0/8_15, kein Betrieb welcher in fast jeder Stadt gleich ist, sondern ein Ort mit Freundlichkeit und Leichtigkeit!

My partner and I were in Winterthur yesterday to both enjoy the Xmas Market and meander through the lovely, downtown pedestrian zone. We took a left turn somewhere and found ourselves walking down a stretch of quiet road. That road led us to a rather non-descript storefront with large, glass doors through which we spied a grand-looking espresso machine. In we went and had a pleasant experience at the three-week-old La Cyma. What I dug about the place was that it was spacious, yet tidy, sort of arty with a few choice bits of funky, old wooden furniture placed here and there, and, lastly, a barber's chair tucked back in the corner and ready to be used. La Cyma is a blend of cafe-during-the-day, bar at night, and hair salon anytime! There is a daily buffet/brunch for those who'd like to nosh, beer on tap, spirits, and, of course, espresso drinks. Update 2014: the espresso was quite bitter on my first trip here back in 2012, but it ain't no more, so problem sorted. Probably my absolute fave thing about La Cyma is there is a wee wooden box in the ladies' by the sink that has tampons in it for those in need. I have never, ever seen such an offering before in any cafe. Huge props to the (male owners for being thoughtful. : Note: I can't figure out for the life of me to correctly categorise new businesses and also think that Yelp might be stumped here as the place is a bar/resto/hair salon all-in-one!
