Poor location for this old gem on a noisy avenue. Munich Kreuzkamm is fabulous to compare with…read more Completely open on one side to a popular mall, the decor lacks privacy and is poorly furnished. The service is catastrophic but not aggressive though obliging to claim bread, cutlery, etc. every minute. The breakfast is totally tasteless. How sad.

This konditorei was pretty yummy. I was on a tour back in late March/early April and we spent a…read morenight in Dresden. Before we did our walking tour, we had a bit of free time so my wife and I hit up this mall to find some stuff for her. While she did that shopping, I stopped off at Kreutzkamm and had a slice of apple cake and one slice of one of the cakes known in that area. Can't remember the name, but it's got a lot of eggs in it and is very light and spongy. Anyhow, the apple cake was terrific and the I got the other cake more for my wife than for myself. It was pretty yummy, but you could taste a somewhat light egg flavor in every bite. I found the staff to be friendly enough. It's Germany, they aren't known to be immediately warm upon introduction. The only weird thing, I wasn't sure how the system worked. I ordered my food (in German) and she gave me a number and told me to take a seat. I did. I received my cakes, ate them, but I never received a bill. I could have gotten up and left and had free cake, but I'm too honest for that so I went to the counter and explained (in German) that I hadn't paid yet. They looked puzzled, asked what I ordered and then charged me accordingly. Kinda strange. It's a really cute setup on the inside. I wish it would have been a stand alone place rather than in a mall. It loses some character. I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting some good German tortes and not just simple coffee cakes like many of the mainstream bakeries offer.

This is a great little bakery and cafe. We came here after going up the side of the mountain with…read morethe Schwebebahn and viewing the city from above. It was the afternoon and we were in need of some coffee and delicious cake. The place is fairly small and it was quite packed but we did get to manage to find a small table. Our server stopped by quickly and we got some Latte and apple juice of the kids. We all go to choose some cake. I got myself a real Dresdener Eierschecke and my mom got some Apple Crumb Cake. The kids got some fresh made cookies. The Eierschecke was one of the best ones, I have ever had. My son is a very very picky eater but he ate more than half of my cake, because it was so delicious. The prices are pretty standard. Great little place and awesome variety of home made fresh cakes, cookies and buns. It's also just a couple feet from the Schwebebahn, so the location is perfect.
