Heute zur Konfirmation ca. 6Std. dort gewesen. Familientreffen. Hervorragende, selbstgemachte Küche, Eine aufmerksame, sehr freundliche Bedienung, die einem die Wünsche förmlich von den Augen abgelesen hat, und auch Sonderwünsche zuvorkommend und freundlich erfüllt hat. Das ganze zu erschwinglichen Preisen.

Giving this cafe 5 stars as there was nothing to fault. Had coffee and cake. Served quickly, large cake selection, coffee was great. Nice and warm, too (0 degrees outside).

Gemütliches Café mit wild zusammengewürfelter Einrichtung – wirkt ein bisschen wie vom Sperrmüll, hat aber gerade dadurch seinen eigenen Charme. Die Kuchen sind wirklich lecker, es gibt auch immer eine vegane und glutenfreie Variante, was super ist. Außerdem werden täglich wechselnde Speisen angeboten (z. B. eine sehr gute Kürbissuppe). Der Service ist freundlich, allerdings sollte man etwas Zeit mitbringen, da es zu längeren Wartezeiten kommen kann. Schade war nur, dass es laut Karte Cookies geben sollte – die beiden Mitarbeiterinnen wussten davon allerdings nichts und hatten noch nie von veganen Cookies gehört. Insgesamt aber ein schöner Ort, an dem man sowohl drinnen als auch draußen gut sitzen kann.

Great family-friendly (+dog-friendly) place with a very cool kids corners (inside and out). Friendly service. Cakes are plentiful and very tasty. They also serve breakfast that looks nice from the Menu. The lady owner opened the place last September with little previous experience but obviously with more than enough dedication and enthusiasm. How she manages with 4 kids at home (ok, one was helping on the day) is a small wonder…
