But a very good place to sit and people watch, with a glass of Alsace wine or coffee. Prices were reasonable compared to the other touristy restaurants. Service is slow but considering how much staff they have compared to customers, it is understandable.

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 place seems to have a lot of good reviews, but sadly, I did not have a good experience when I…read morewas there. The two pastries that intrigued me the most were their lemon tarte and a fluffy German cheesecake called Käsekuchen. Ideally, I would have gotten both, but I was so full from eating everything else in this town that I had to settle with having just one pastry for an afternoon snack - and I went with the Käsekuchen. While I liked that it wasn't too sweet, it ended up being very eggy and altogether very meh - a first for me when it comes to pastries in France. The tea I got to go with it was also not very memorable. While the interior is cute - rustic, with lots of Teddy bears everywhere - the service was very lacking, especially compared to other places in this town. Maybe my experience would have been better if I had picked the lemon tarte or tried some lunch or dinner items, but I'll probably skip this place next time I'm in town.

Delightful, bright and friendly! This small café nestled into the heart of Colmar was more than…read morewelcome every morning by greeting me with the smell of freshly brewed coffee. The choices of coffees and tea's are incredible, I could have easily sat in here each afternoon of the week trying all that was available. The café also sells coffee and tea instruments to help you brew and pour the perfect cup right in your own home. The charming local owner is more than happy to help you find exactly the right taste your looking for, while you can sit by the counter and take in all the wonderful armours around. If I am ever in Colmar again you will be sure to find me making myself right at home in this treasure of a café.

Coffee is really nice at this place…read more Ground floor is mainly a coffee shop. You can buy grounded coffee or just the beans if you want. They have a nice selection of coffee makers as well. If you just want to seat and have a coffee, go upstairs! there is a lot of space. I like this place because they have a large choice of original beans and flavored drinks. The staff is really helpful.
