We had breakfast here on a Sunday at the start of November. On this day the only served their special “Frühstück I’m glas” for 25€ a person. Overall, I think I would have been quite happy with a normal breakfast, but it was a nice idea. Sad the water and coffee aren’t included in the price. But juices and smoothies are. The staff seemed very stressed and at times we felt rather forgotten. The food in the small jars was all quite nice, however the warm items, of which we tried soup and scrambled eggs. Maybe there were more options but we couldn’t find out as there was no list and the staff were to busy. Once I finally got some scrambled eggs it was brought to me cold. You could get a new plate of cheese and charcuterie so you be hungry. It is an expensive breakfast, and the experience could be better with a menu of warm options and staff less rushed of their feet!

We enjoyed out breakfast here so much that we went back to have coffee and cake in the afternoon. The restaurant has an „old-world“ charm and a great location in the middle of Augsburg. The staff is really friendly and quick. The breakfast with fresh baked breads (Broetchen) and fresh ingredients tastes very good. The cake we tried, Black Forrest and Mango Chocolate, was very good and no to sweet. What we really appreciated was the staff member who took her duty seriously and told an old woman (who took off her mask and then started coughing and not covering her face) to please put on her mask. I don’t understand why people are so selfish to endanger others by taking of their masks (It works in Asia why not in the West?) and having the audacity to then start coughing / sneezing not thinking about the rest of us.

I had the walnut cake, it did not disappoint, with good texture in various layers. Best cake I had this week.

I had fun visiting this coffee, cake and chocolate place. It is the perfect place where you can hid in a crowd and do some people watching. The sitting area is really large and when it is full it reverberates with human chatter and laughter. The cake selection is quite big, more of the classic type of cakes and although there is nothing truly spectacular about them, they are tasty. The drink menu is generous and the service is prompt but not overly friendly.

Exceptional fast and very friendly staff. Went there an hour before closing time and it was quite full.
