A warm, lived-in cafe just off the cathedral run by its Austrian owners, Pois trades in good sandwiches, an excellent Austrian cake selection and proper all-day brunch on sagging sofas and wooden tables. It reads as a genuine neighbourhood reading-room rather than a tourist stop, with books, magazines and a slow, unhurried rhythm. Kitchen runs late.
