We sat on the second floor, which had a great view outside. The building is old and has a great vibe to it. The service was friendly and attentive. Our food was fresh and tasty, typical coffeehouse fare. We did not try any of the cakes in the pastry display, but they looked amazing and it feels like a missed opportunity. Definitely check out the architecture when going in or out.

Each of us had two warm croissants (the best we've had outside of Paris) and a brioche. Fresh house made jam. Exquisite. They have an epic number of teas also.

The interior with it's very East German feel, is on two floors with lots of dark wood and interesting paintings on the wall. My companion had a very lovely hot chocolate with mint which is one of their house specialties. The location is right on a main street thoroughfare in a shopping district so it's a great place to rest for a bit during a shopping day.

I've had a few totally fine experiences here but today received completely unacceptable treatment…read morefrom one of the bartenders/waitresses. Upon ordering a latte, in German, as I usually do, and which is always enough to get my order across at Cafe Puschkin, she replied with some sentences that I was unfamiliar with and quickly. So I replied, in german, to excuse me because I don't speak german and that I didn't understand. Any reasonably decent human being would have taken literally any other course of action but she, with an unbelievably zazzy attitude, scoffed so loud I could nearly feel the breath coming out of her lipsticked mouth, shoved a latte on the counter (one that was already made--I presume she was making a fresher one for another customer that didn't offend her so maliciously), and didn't make eye contact with me or speak another word. I waited, as I assumed this drink that had been on the counter since I walked in was for another customer, for my latte to be made. A minute or so later, she (again, no eye contact, no words) pushed the drink closer to me and held out her hand for the payment. I'm not going to lie: I'm getting a little pleasure from this review as it, and my never-coming-back-here, seem to be my only recourse. I don't know how to tell some one to "up yours" in German, or I would have done that maybe instead and not resorted to Yelp. The latte is decent, if lukewarm.
