Loved coming here every morning for breakfast before heading to the office on an international work…read moretrip. I had to get to work between seven and 730 each day and this bakery opens at 6:15 AM each day, which was perfect to be able to leave between 630 and 6:45 AM each day. The staff inside is super friendly and she speaks English very well to be able to explain what is inside each of the pastries since nothing is labeled. It's very helpful since you can't tell from just looking at them what it's filled with. I would point to a pastry and she would tell me if it had fruit nuts, custard, or chocolate inside. They also have an espresso machine and it makes the espresso very hot, which was perfect since I had to drive about 40 to 45 minutes. They have a large variety of breads and pastries. Things are priced very well and this is a tiny shop with just standing room inside but outside they have a few tables if you want to eat versus take it on the go. I was mostly taking it on the go and eating it while driving in the car since everything is packaged in individual bags that can be used as a rapper. She would also tell me if things were very typical in Germany because I wanted to try a lot of the local pastries and foods. This was the perfect way to start each morning. This is not in your typical downtown of Heidelberg and is on a side street which was very close to my Hilton hotel. The parking is a little tight and hard to find, but there is usually a spot you can stop at for just a few quick minutes needed to order and go. Everything was baked fresh and tasted really good. There is a nut bar that is coming in Germany called Walnut Kuchen that was very delicious and to my surprise not very sweet although it is dense so it will fill you up. It's very similar to Nussecken (German Nut Corners) but was rectangular not a triangle. I also loved the pretzels with cheese (Käsebrezel). Great bakery to checkout if in Heidelberg a bit west of the old town.

There were many sweets and breads to try and the staff were incredibly friendly. I highly recommend trying this place.

What I'm about to say is entirely on me but just for my fellow English-speaking travelers: The…read morepastries and coffee are good but honestly this is a difficult cafe to navigate if you don't speak German well. I kind of assumed with a French theme and so much French on the menu it would be easier to order, but we had some mixups that never got fully sorted out. The flat white and cappuccino were fine, but somehow my husband's pain au chocolat became a heiße schokolade (hot chocolate), all the more confusing because the cafe menu lists only chocolat chaud. I tried to order a croissant pistache, which was sold out, and I don't think they understood I then wanted a second pain au chocolat instead. We didn't get a receipt so I really don't know what we DID order, and when I went to retrieve the mysteriously missing pastries I only got one pain au chocolat and the staff acted like it was an apology for the hot chocolate which I tried to explain we hadn't ordered. The three drinks we ended up with were great, the one pastry was great, but I don't think I'd attempt coming back here unless I worked on my German first or came at a much less busy time.

Awesome spot for a coffee and gourmet dessert.

This is a great place to indulge in a treat and enjoy a coffee. The prices are moderate- macaroons cost 1.40€ each but there are discounts the more you buy. My chocolate mousse (Perou) and a Latte Macchiato cost about 6.50€. The place inside is simple-white walls, back chairs, a few pillows- which was kind of bland. However, the lovely desserts will keep me coming back regardless!

The "Ringo Starr" bagel, a seeded cheesy pretzel-bagel with herb cream cheese and radishes, was…read morereally good. It was a soft and fresh pretzel, not overly salty. Loved the crunch of the pepitas and radish with the rich cream cheese, and the lightness of the radish kept things balanced with all the cheese. The sandwiches are premade, so food service is very quick, and the person who rung me up at the front was really nice. Affordable prices. The place was very busy but I managed to find a seat by the entrance. They have lots of clearly labelled vegetarian and vegan sandwiches!

We also got hot tea; they gave us 3 choices of what kind. I got the fruit tea and my wife got the peppermint tea. The place was great, the only thing I didn't like was that parking was hard to come by and with all the one way streets in the area we found it a bit tricky getting there.
