Pleasant place to hang out, with umbrellas to keep the hot sun from boiling you to death. We went…read morefor Rhubarb pie...sadly they were just out of season, as of yesterday! Bummers. We ate an Apple pie with a nut crust. Tasted good, but not as good as their Rhubarb pie, as this one was a touch too dry due to the fact that the pie is mostly crust and very little apple. However, I would still sit here and watch people and have some coffee and depending on their offerings, a pie.

June 26, 2025 in Erlangen , Bavaria Germany. Came to this cafe-restaurant in the center of town…read more Every table taken under the sun umbrellas. Tourists eating ice cream in 80+ degree heat, under the baking sun during the great European heat wave of 2025. I'm not supposed to eat ice cream to limit my blood sugar spikes, but with the amount of walking we were doing, that was not a problem. Ordered two plain cones of single scoop sorbert at 2 euros each. The employees serving us laughed at my broken German,clearly understanding English. The two lady servers smiled and gladly posed for a picture, as this was their chance to appear internationally on Yelp. We found a place to stand in the shade, as the sorbet hit the spot during one of the hottest days of our Viking Grand European River tour.

We went to this place in the heart of Erlangen to relax, escape the summer heat and have an ice…read morecream and maybe some coffee. After all, a walk through Erlangen is boring as &€@&, compared to the rich history and many sights in Nuremberg or Bamberg. But after the ill choice to spend an afternoon here, why not try some local ice cream? Upon approaching one of the waiters with the intent of getting seated he immediately turned around and briskly left. Ok, so we seated ourselves. When nobody came to take our order I tried to gesture another young waiter (who was desperately trying to grow a beard) to take our order. Unfortunately he was too distracted ogling the scantily clad young women in their summer dresses passing by to notice me waving my hand from 6 feet away. Who can blame him... hormones... So: the service has much room to improve. Eventually an older gentleman took our order and the ice cream was delicious! There are also breakfast and warm lunch choices on the menu, and the pictures look yummy. My ice cream plate looked as pictured in the menu. The waffle was a bit bland, but ok. Prices are okay for what you get, no complaints there. The tables were very close to each other, so don't discuss anything you don't want others to hear. I now know the story of the woman's life that was next to us, as reported to her BFF, including job, boyfriend and other juicy info I wish I had not overheard. But it would have been awkward to comment, right? Maybe she thought I wouldn't understand German, lol. Finally a warning: be prepared to walk here, parking is at least half a mile away, and parking spots nearby are scarce. It's apparently part of the city's master plan to drive (pun intended) motorists and their associated business put of town. Many boarded up businesses are Testaments to that. So enjoy a stroll through the city while there are still businesses left. Or better yet, take your business to Nuremberg or Bamberg, both of which are charming and well worth a visit.

It was such a nice surprise to find out European coffee is actually good and not shitty like American coffee! The espresso at Cafe Rondo was a little hard on the stomach afterwards, but the cappuccino was amazing. Highly recommend if you are in the area.
