Sadly, the quality of the 'dark brew' ain't what it could be (read: extremely bitter espresso drinks) and that's a shame given how centrally located and charmingly laid out this place is. I'm a sucker for coffee sack-lined walls, funky old light fixtures and solid wood 'steh cafe' tables. To complete a place, however, one needs great product. That's where, at least java-wise, this place falls short of the mark. Props to the young gal who served us. She was so very nice. I'd like to pay for her to go to barista training school. Having said that, it could be a case of not having the best machines to work with, or, at the very least, not having them in the best working order.

We haven't found any other tea store (even in New York) with such an interesting selection of teas and such friendly, knowledgable staff. Try their herbal mixes. Also, it's a great place to order a cup of tea, sit back, and relax.

This is the place to try the ORIGINAL Black Forest cake…read more My friends and I ordered 2 coffees and 2 Black Forest cakes. The cake was moist, delicious, and packed a punch! You could really taste the cherry liqueur, and everything about the cake seemed so fresh! TIP: for sit-down, everyone must order at least one item off the menu or be charged a surcharge.

Ordered the 3 cheese quiche knowing I was close to France, this seemed like a good choice. What a disappointment it turned out to be. I did not taste even one cheese in there, no less three!

We shared an èclair au praliné noisette, croissant aux amandes, and pain au chocolat - all three of them perfect, fresh, delicious, and everlasting.

There were so many choices it was the epitome of a kid in a candy store. We shared a slice of Black Forest cake and a glass of champagne. We sat outside to take in the views of the quaint village of Baden-Baden. The Black Forest cake you can get in the United States can't even match getting the real deal. I mean, wow! The cake was decadent and creamy, infused with liqueur, cherries, and whipped cream. It was so good that when it was gone I was scouring the dessert plate for another morsel. I was using my fingers to get up every last crumb. Simply said, best of the best.
