One of my favorite brunch/dessert cafes in Cologne! Located in the downtown area, this spacious and…read morelovely cafe greets you with a quasi-red carpet and vivid colorful displays of chocolates, beautiful cakes, macarons, pastries, and sweet decorations. In contrast to many cafes, there are plenty of seats available and good for large groups, although they also take reservations if you're so inclined. The restaurant also serves several good options for brunch and breakfast options, and the service is friendly. I think this is a great place to meet up with friends and family for brunch, coffee, or a sweet and delicious cake in between shopping. I recommend the French vanilla layer cake. Two things that I noticed other reviewers commented on, which I will also briefly reiterate. Ordering system might seem foreign to some- you order your cake in the front where you can see the cakes, get a voucher, take a seat and then order your coffee, server takes your voucher, and will bring your drinks and cake together. In addition, we also noticed that on Sunday, they only offered large cups of coffee or cans, which was a bit odd. Another slight pet peeve that's standard in many German downtown restaurants/cafes but still somewhat annoying- there's a bathroom person expecting a tip for using their facilities, so you might need to have some spare change available. All in all, a cafe worth visiting. :)

Our waitress didn't speak any English and we didn't speak any German but we were able to get by with pointing and hand gestures. She was this super cute older German lady and she was really nice to us. We got cappuccinos and two slices of cake. I don't remember the exact names but they were both really good and not overly sweet. Great way to relax in the afternoon! Note that this place is cash only. We didn't know that before we went but we were lucky to have cash on hand.

I had some card trouble but found out you insert instead of tap. The quality of the food was great. It's not the best I've experienced, but well done. I enjoy the macaroons the most! I had one vanilla, one blueberry, and a strawberry. All fantastically flavored too! Overall check this place out. I hope I get to go back to check out the desserts too.

I'm not 100% certain we were at the right place. We followed the directions on Yelp and I'm pretty…read moresure it's this place, but I think the name might have changed. Unfortunately I don't remember the name on the sign but it seems to be the same place since I didn't see any other bakeries around. We arrived early in the morning and it was pretty quiet in the neighborhood, so we were the only ones in here. It was only our second day in Germany so we were kind of stumbling around in need of coffee and a pastry. We did indeed get our pastries here. I just got a chocolate croissant and my wife got a poppyseed brotchen. They were both yummy. The selection was a little sparser than I expected, but because it's in a slower neighborhood maybe they do more bread sales, I don't know. Either way I can say that the food we did have was good and I imagine all their other items are just as good. Definitely feel free to stop by if you're in the area, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

This bakery/café is a nice place with high prices and an okay service:…read more The atmosphere: The atmosphere was very nice when I visited last week, it wasn't too loud, there weren't too many people present and the music playing was adding to a nice, French ambiente. The food: We ordered the tête-à-tête for two, there was a giant bread collection included in that with multiple bread rolls, croissants and some brioche buns. The breadwork was beautiful done, the croissants especially just blew me away! There was some cheese and confitures as well, which was good. The price: the price in my opinion is quite okay, the food is really good, so high prices have to be expected. We paid around 20€ for the menu for 2 and some drinks on top of that. We took some patisserie home, which was rather expensive. The staff: the staff was not horrible, but not good either. We always had to go in front to order something new, because the waiter never came to our table. He also reached over my plate once to take something out of a shelf next to me, which in my opinion is a total no-go for a waiter!! Also, the Dirty dishes just sat on the front desk for about 35 minutes before getting cleaned! TLDR: Atmosphere: 10/10 Food: 10/10 Price: 8/10 Staff: 6/10 I would definitely go here again, but I wouldn't buy patisserie anymore, the prices were just too high. Maybe a change of staff is recommendable!

As a born and raised Frenchman from Paris, I must say that this place is shocking…read more The baguette is barely eatable, don't take me wrong, it was discussing. Nothing french about it. The pastries were one level above in tastelessness. We tried the Tartelettes aux framboises ... it tasted industrial! I won't talk too much about the price that it was really overprice, if at least the quality would follow it would have been fine!
