Cafe Glorija is a really pleasant place to relax. It is located in a quiet neighborhood near the city center and has a great garden, which is by far its best asset. The garden is elevated about two feet of the ground and the trees and canopy really make it look like a little garden of eden. Some drawbacks are somewhat ordinary interior and the squatting toilets, which some people think of as a bonus. Also the price of coffee is a bit too much compared to some other cafes in the same 'range' but it's nothing to sneeze at. The staff is pleasant and remembers you and your usuals quickly. Overall, I'd give "Glorija" a 4.5 but this rating system wouldn't allow me, so the 4 will have to make due.
