The coffee was expertly made, clearly artisan, and deeply thoughtful in flavor. We left with an excellent bag of beans and a new appreciation for just how good well-crafted coffee can be. Highly recommend if you care about quality and craft.

Something that tends to set Europe apart from the states is coffee culture. While you'll find great…read morelittle cafes sprinkled around European cities they aren't quite the same as the cafes in the US. In my opinion "coffee shops" as we tend to think of them here in the states have more of a coffee first focus, where there is a lot of emphasis on how the beans are ground, brewed, and enjoyed. The difference in Europe is that a European "cafe" tends to be more about sitting down to have a coffee and maybe enjoy a pastry or some bread. It's more of a place to visit and take in the ambiance or read a book and less of a place to seek out the best coffee. Just my opinion, but I find cafes in general in Europe to be really hit or miss on coffee flavor and quality. All of that being said, when visiting Heidelberg this past spring I woke up and in need of a good cup of coffee started searching Yelp for options. Enter Coffee Nerd. It fit my criteria as it had a good rating and was walkable from my hotel. I convinced my sister to get dressed and out the door we went. It was easy enough to find and is fairly centrally located - not too far from the historic part of town, but definitely more city center and likely caters more to locals than tourists. When we walked in the door it was like walking back into the USA. It had the clean lines and minimalist design of any hip coffee house I'd find back home, which oddly enough was somewhat comforting. The menu was very simple, but that was okay as all I really wanted was some cold brew. They did have cold brew, but being Europe they were not as accustomed to folks taking it to go so they put it in a hot to-go cup for me which kind of made me chuckle, but it tasted right and I was really grateful for the stop. Why four and not five stars? Pretty much because it really lacked options and I would have liked to have seen maybe a few house made syrups to choose from, and a more robust pastry case. All in all, if I had been staying in Heidelberg more days I'm sure this spot would have stayed in my rotation.

I had half of a mortadella baguette - I probably would have enjoyed it more if it were slightly warmer but it was pretty delicious. The staff here is so friendly and the Wifi here is not only free but also fast. It's a nice space to sit and hang out but the noise level is pretty substantial so it's not the best place to do a ton of work that requires concentration - still, I got some things done in the two hours I was there. There's also outdoor space if you'd like to soak in some fresh air. Also, they only take cash! So bring your wallet.

I simply love this place!!!…read more They open for breakfast and close at midnight. I have been going there for years, since I just lived around the corner. At the beginning it wasn't really such a great place, but the new owner just turned it all around and it is like THE Spot in the little town of Bad Schoenborn. He is a very nice guy, even recognized me at the local supermarket :) he is mostly working in the background and yet present when it gets busy. Whether you go for breakfast, lunch, dinner, cocktails, coffee, sundowner...you can't go wrong with anything at the Glashaus! I came here for all of the above lol and everyone I took there loved it as well and went back. The interior is very friendly, the chairs are really comfy. Wooden tables, big brown chairs, a few high tables and chairs that are also really comfy. Outside is nice to sit at, big sun-brellas prevent you and your food to burn up in the sun ;) The place is very popular with all kinds of people. Young, old, locals, tourists, people who meet for coffee, business, breakfast, lunch,dinner or just enjoy their cold drafted beer on their way home from work. Their kitchen is mostly Mediterranian, lots of pasta and pizza dishes. The salads are sooooo good and always served with fresh baked ciabatta bread. They have a daily lunch special and a all day special menu which they change frequently. They also serve cake and ice cream. Check out their Brunch or All-you-can-eat-pasta night as well whenever they have it going on (those days are certainly subject to change so I don't want to give specifics, check the hp for current offers). I can't even give you a recommendation on a specific dish, because everything is usually so delicious! Occasionally, they have bands playing there on a Friday or Saturday night or before a holiday. When stuff like the Soccer World Cup is going on, they let down a screen for public viewing. There is parking on the street and an open parking lot close by. If you go in a group, it is best to make a reservation. Let them know if you would like to sit in- or outside as well. Note that they only accept cash, that's why they lose one point, I find this very inconvenient. A bank w/ATM is just across the street, but still. At least accept EC cards... oh, and there are a few little swing-thingies for smaller children. Even older kids can run around and play. Bring a soccer ball or something, they will be able to stay within sight :) I hope you enjoy this place as much as I did :) Whenever I'll go home to visit, I will definitely go by :)

It is very comfortable, intimate, and filled with tons of friendly locals. The ladies and gentlemen who work here smiled lots and went out of their way to answer my questions about Heidelberg and the neighboring towns. They also replenished my latte many times as I entertained them with American humor, politics. With the cafe's desirable location on an old cobblestone street, the delectable drinks, sandwiches and sweets lure people walking by to lay down their roots and enjoy the cafe's treasures. Heidelberg is a romantic picturesque college town. I look forward to visiting again and spending many more afternoons at Casa del Caffe.
