About
Calico Café is an international coffee shop offering worldwide brunches throughout the week. Created by the trio Aika, Luca, and Fabio Amabile, the establishment features a creative menu inspired by global breakfast traditions: English breakfast, chakchouka, Turkish eggs, and Australian avocado toast. The venue cultivates an industrial and plant-filled atmosphere, with a wooden counter, white tiles, and numerous green plants. Located on Boulevard Carnot, near Grand'Place, the café offers 17 cozy indoor seats and a future 18-seat terrace. Its name pays tribute to Calico Jack, an innovative pirate who integrated a woman into his crew. The team aims to provide options suitable for everyone, with vegan and gluten-free dishes, accompanied by varied beverages like kombucha, fresh juices, local beers, and wines.
