Fries were cold, aioli too spicy and had some mysterious stuff in it; 'Veronica' had to check if they could make nachos without chili con carne, but she was pretty sure they came with it already on the chips.... What the hell kind of pre-made garbage is she used to eating?!? They finally came, with too little guacamole, and too spicy. Nothing special, just like what you can make at home... The glass was dirty; there were blankets and it was cold but the staff didn't offer one. Other than that the one male waiter in his 30's we had was friendly and spoke English well. He even said, after asking us if we wanted our drink 0.2 or 0.4, and after we'd answered 0.2, "do you know what that means, 0.2?" Lol . So nice! ; )

Cafe Extrablatt's breakfast buffet is great. Fresh scrambled eggs, hard-boiled eggs, broetchen and croissants, along with fruit, cheese, etc. It's much butter than even the breakfast buffet over at the expensive Maritim hotel (Bellevue), which costs a whole lot more. It's my daughter's favorite place to hang out with me in the mornings. The food is fresh and delicious, and the waiters/waitresses are young and very nice. Highly recommended!

Regular Burger

Wanted something quick and easy but when I went in it wasn't what I expected. This place wasn't a cafe it was a restaurant with two floors. You could compare this place to a Burger chain restaurant in the US maybe like a Jonny Rockets. The burger I ordered was the Cesar but got a regular burger so I don't know the name of it. Nothing special about the burger though to be honest, it had cucumber on it which I have never had before so that was new. The fries were like McDonald French Fries and they were even served in a tiny deep fryer to let you know how uninspiring they were. I probably will never get a burger here again but from looking what other people ordered I think a Wrap is the way to go. Seems like the popular choice for lunch.

My wife and I walked in at 8:30am. A rude waitress replied us in an unfriendly look and voice that all the tables are reserved, as if we were intruding in her work.This is a two story cafe and with only two gentleman sitting at one table, that's it. Then another waitress who was very kind tried to pass us the menu. But I found out that they don't serve breakfast until 9:00am. It's fine, but the first rude waitress should have informed us. We then went to X11 Apostel hereby which provided excellent service at EURO$12.50 per person a decent breakfast buffet. What a difference.

To be honest the only reason we went into this restaurant was that it accept credit card payments though the Yelp comment weren't actually positive. However, it stays true to its price and we fed ourselves well with limited amount of money. We ordered 2 hot teas, an "afpelstudel', a lasagna as an "afternoon tea"ish meal and 2 wraps to go, which was only 34 euros in total. The environment was light and more of a young people place rather than traditional food restaurant or family place. The service was not to be complimented but suits the environment and price anyhow.

Round one of the brunch buffet. Also, delicious coffee!

Very nice restaurant, attentive staff & the food was very fresh. I loved the side of truffle Mac…read moreand cheese the best. They are also had very good mocktails to select from.

I had a new years dinner here with family and friends and as it was taking place on new years eve…read morenot only did we have to pre book but we also had to pre pay the meals which was 150 Euros per person which I thought was a bit rude and very steep for 4 course meal in a hotel restaurant. During the booking my partner advised that I am allergic to shell fish and fish and also that I would like my entire meats medium to well done. The Hyatt regency is really nice to stay in, the restaurant is located above the lobby with large windows looking out to the Rhine and the cologne Dom, when we arrived everything went very well. There was no menu as they cooked only one type of meal due to the volume of guests which in my mind was not a great service, I feel that eating in a 5 star hotel and restaurant one should at least get a menu, plus the wines were also laid out to according to what you ate. Anyway, after two hours of waiting and a group of very hungry customers, greetings from the kitchen arrived and what do you know I got shell fish, I didn't really make a fuss and just handed it to a friend, then the starter arrived and what do you know it was fish, I told the waitress that due to the booking agreement it was made clear I couldn't eat fish of course she said that this wasn't made clear and there was no alternative they could offer, I asked about salad and she said they didn't have any. The soup course arrived and woohoo it was fish soup and so the argument started and I am sitting there thinking I paid 150 Euros for a meal which I cant even eat and I thought what a farse! Anyway, she changed it after a long winded argument for something which was so bland in taste, dirty water had more appeal. After another 2 hours waiting the main course arrived and I was served, under cooked duck which was red in the inside and slightly frozen, it was very clear that this was done as an extra for me as everyone at the table were eating fish. I complained and asked for the manager and my reply was there wasn't a manager on service, then I asked for the chef who refused to come out and see me, then I replied if he wont come out then I will go in, finally a manager arrived and said it was normal for duck to be that red and I said what about the frozen part, anyway, he just snapped the plate from me and walked off saying nothing, I just looked shocked at the rest of my family whom thought it must be a prank been played. No, no prank 30 minutes past and he came from the kitchen with a new plate of food, cod and fried pototoes and I looked at him with shock and said I cant eat fish, he looked at me really nasty and started to fight with me and I just said lets forget about it, if its too much trouble to throw the duck back in the pan then lets forget about the dinner all together, he walked off and he never came back. Woohoo dessert arrived, I was so hungry I could eat a horse unfortunately there was no meat to be dished up, well not for me anyway, I though no way could they kill a dessert and boy was I wrong, they were so many tastes crashing against one another that it was just a major car crash, strawberry and cherry sorbet with curry ice cream, with a tiny piece of mint cake to very sour berries to coffee cream. No one at the table could eat the dessert it was that bad! Afterwards I had it, I spent 150 Euros excluding the drinks for a meal I couldn't even eat and I didn't care if they threw me out I wanted my money back and after 1 hour of a fuelled argument in the down stairs lobby I got my money back and then having the nerve to state please do come again. The food here is car crash gone bad, taste over lap each other and it just doesn't fit. In my personal experience I would avoid this restaurant like a bad rash!

Let's start out with the positive aspects. Convenient location. This was literally a hip skip and a…read morejump from my hotel room at the Marriot, which is just a few blocks from the main train station in Cologne. The large restaurant can easily accommodate many patrons. Large roomy tables are perfect for those who don't want to feel claustrophobic. The menu is vast and in English (Angels singing). Best of all.. They had fois gras with a side scoop of sorbet... Strange but it worked! And the not so great.... The wait for the menu was 10 min. The wait to order was 15. The whole ordeal took over 2 hours. This was a bit long when you've got two young kids dining with you. The worst part? They charge 9€ for a bottle of Evian water. A bit steep in my opinion. They also have breakfast buffet here in the morning. Not the best but not so bad either. There are a variety of cheeses,breads, and meats. There's an omelette station, too. Monday guy was great but Sunday guy was a joke. I asked for an omelette...and then I returned a few minutes later... Had to repeat what I wanted and he said 10 min. 10 min later he said "10 minutes. " I go back 10 min later and he asked what I ordered! So I repeated it and he said "ahhhh it's right here" as he started throwing the ingredients in my omelette to one he was already cooking! And.... It was still wrong!

Horrible service even by meager European standards. The supposed French Asian fusion food was…read moreneither French or Asian. So we tried the French onion soup... no flavor. It was the consistency of warm dish water. We went to breakfast thinking you can't screw that up..... avoid this place!

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. :)

Good cafe shop with cute chocolates and stuffed toys. Decent interior and quite a few seats. Not…read morehard to find and decent amount of people but not too packed. Reasonable prices and lots of choices for drinks. Clean and organized place even the washroom is quite clean.
