The experience
We built the café to take the screen out of your hands.
There is no Wi-Fi on the tables. Not because we are against technology, but because we have noticed what happens when it is gone. People look up. They talk longer. They remember why they came in the first place. Mazi is a small rebellion against the feed, and it is the warmest room we know how to make.
How we slow down
-
The Phone Stack
Walk in with friends and stack your phones face-down on the table. The first to reach for one buys the next round.
-
The Slow Hour
Before ten each morning the room is kept quiet. No music, low light, just the sound of the grinder and the street waking up.
-
Vinyl Fridays
Friday evenings run on records chosen by the staff. Bring one you love and it might find the turntable.
-
The Long Table
One shared table in the middle of the room. Sit anywhere. Strangers at Mazi have a habit of leaving as regulars.
Come as you are
Stay past midnight if you like
The chairs are comfortable and the company is better than your timeline.
