Conhecemos o Alex, Gorete e Thainara há muitos anos, frequentamos o Café do Alex desde 2012. Vimos o crescimento da loja, o capricho e carinho de tudo que é feito ali. Eles sempre tentando inovar, trazer novos sabores e delícias prá todos que conhecem o Café. Ficamos amigos de toda a família e acho que isso é o mais especial neles, o amor e a amizade que oferecem a todos que frequentam a loja. Eles moram em nosso coração como sei que moramos nos deles.

Pense num local agradável e com um ar de interior? As melhores cachaças, doces e queijos além de muitas outras iguarias da terra de Minas.

Recomendo! Vale muito a pena parar neste local (paramos na ida e na volta). Pão de queijo maravilhoso, quentinho, na hora, um cafezinho expresso, doces, bebidas, artesanatos e um atendimento sem igual. Deixamos de comprar muita coisa em Monte Verde, para comprar com eles na volta (queijo, goiabada, inclusive o pão de queijo congelado). Um lindo visual da janelinha na lojinha de artesanatos. Banheiro limpo.

Eu não pude resistir à tentação de experimentar um queijo artesanal do Alex Café enquanto passava por lá. Para minha surpresa, a equipe foi tão generosa que nos ofereceu uma amostra grátis que estava deliciosa! Não conseguimos resistir e acabamos comprando cinco queijos para levar para casa. Foi uma experiência tão incrível que se eu passar por lá novamente, definitivamente comprarei mais cinco!
