I was here on a Sunday morning to have breakfast. I had a coffee, an almond croissant , and another coffee to go. Parked my car directly in front free of charge. Parking is limited, though. The service was very friendly. And the place has a nice feminine and cozy touch. When I was there they were about to organize a birthday party later in the day.

Lovely little café on the outskirts of Winterthur, set in a peaceful residential area. The classic, understated interior sets the tone for a cozy experience. We enjoyed a deeply chocolaty, moist cake, a well-balanced Schwarzwälder Torte, and a creamy lemon Schmand cake topped with meringue. Also a good spot for a light breakfast or casual snack.

Ein Ort, an dem man sich direkt fühlt und lange verweilen möchte. Wir kamen an einem Sonntag vor dem Mittag um Tee und Kaffee zu trinken, blieben dann länger und hatten Lust auf Käseschnitte und Salat. Später lachte und noch ein Kokos-Johannisbeerenkuchen aus der Vitrine an.
