Lecker Kaffee, besonders die dazubuchbaren Aromen! Räumlichkeiten dafür leider keine 5 Sterne, außerdem etwas merkwürdiges Personal und sehr lauter Geräuschpegel.

UPDATE 2025 Unverändert sehr lecker es Frühstückt und außergewöhnlich freundlicher Service. JULI 2024 Die Lage in einer Seitenstraße hat keinerlei Charme, aber es gibt eine exzellent reichhaltige Frühstücksauswahl und der Service war bei unseren morgendlichen Besuchen immer sehr aufmerksam.

Sehr freundliche und aufmerksame Damen als Bedienung. Guter Milchkaffee und gute, selbst gemachte Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte mit viel gesüßter Sahne. Keine H-Sahne, schmeckte mir daher gut. Mir wäre mehr Kirschwasser lieber gewesen und mehr Kirschen, die 1-2 Tage in Kirschwasser eingelegt gewesen wären. Fazit, wirklich sehr gute Schwarzwälder Kirschrorte, aber unsere selbst gemachte zu Hause schmeckt mir noch besser.
