I haven't found a better espresso or latte than here, and if you have achey cakey pangs, they have a nice selection of muffins and cookies etc. There's even free water in a jug on the counter. It's self-service, so no waiting around to order and then pay, and you can get a card to collect stamps and get a free coffee, you can then collect the cards to get a kg of Hochland coffee. You'll find it up the side street, by Karstadt, in the pedestrian zone. You can read a magazine or today's newspaper, there are chairs and tables outside and in winter there are blankets for your knees and patio heaters, to keep the top of your head warm. It's all very civilized.

After reading all the positive (german) reviews I decided to check out Bruno's for myself…read more Unfortunately I wasn't as pleased. If you go out by yourself you probably won't mind sitting right across the bar, and by facing it it's easy to start chatting with the owner or the waiters (unless they're already engaged in a discussion themselves). But if you're in company, it just doesn't feel that comfortable. The selection and quality is quite good thoug.

This review is limited to the "chimney" cone pastries…read more Oh boy, these pastries are DELICIOUS!!! They use a unique roaster-like contraption to make these fire roasted pastries. The pastry comes out smoking, piping out. There's literally steam coming out of it. This left quite an impression as it is certainly dramatic. I must admit that I love these experiences as I just don't see U.S. eateries handing me such a temperature hot pastry due to all these needless safety reasons. As for the pastry itself, it is a twirl so you can tear off chunks that are partial curls. It has a nice crunch on the outside while the inside is perfectly chewy. You choose different topics. I picked a vanilla sugar and it was very tasty. Definitely try this chimney pastry if you ever see it anywhere!

You can get a variety of flavors, but we stuck with the cinnamon sugar and plain. This pastry literally MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH, it's that good. This is a fabulous stop after a lunch or dinner if it's open. Staff is super friendly and BOY do they have a GREAT product. Get one of these....you'll hate yourself if you leave without having done so!! YUM YUM
