  5. We often stop by for take-away, but when we have time we prefer to sit down in peace, hear from the barista the story of what we are drinking, and send off an email or two.

    Често минаваме за take away, но когато имаме време, предпочитаме да седнем на спокойствие и да чуем от бариста историята за това, което пием, и да изпратим някое мейлче.

  6. Barka too is spacious and calm enough to spend a few productive hours in the company of the laptop. The café's pleasant space has both small tables where we can work on our own and wider ones suitable for group meetings.

    И в Barka е достатъчно просторно и спокойно, за да прекараме няколко продуктивни часа в компанията на лаптопа. В приятното пространство на кафенето са разположени както малки маси, на които да поработим самостоятелно, така и по-широки, подходящи за групови срещи.

    А какво по-добро вдъхновение за работа и творчество от това? Обстановката е предразполагаща, тиха и спокойна, а меките дивани и кресла гарантират удобство.
