Eco urban chic light and refreshing cornerstone cafe serving almost only drinks and cool treats--not all this food fare rigamarole. Spacious interior compartmentalized for covid and single staff was ultra-friendly. A pistachio energy ball, iced caramel macchiato, and double espresso for under €10 is a steal.

Loved the vegan frozen yoghurt, it's a great and not overly sweet treat on a hot day. Quick service. Cute souvenirs in the shop.

This is a super cute coffee shop. I tried the macchiato brulee coffee and it was delicious. I also liked the idea of reusing coffee cups.

really cute and cozy coffeeshop! i had iced soy milk latte and also saw some vegan waffles on the menu(i’ll try them another time!) :) they have wifi, but i haven’t used it so can’t say anything about that. also there’s a bathroom and a small gift shop right inside. i liked interior a lot! the main plus for me was that there wasn’t a lot of people inside the cafe, even though it was around 15 hrs on saturday! :D the staff was friendly and spoke english, it was nice because i can’t speak german very good yet:) i’m in bamberg for a long time so i’ll definitely come back again!

The location is perfect for the locals and tourists - cause it is the main road going to the cathedral. A unique and cozy coffee place to stay and you can relax for awhile. Delicious, tasty and a luscious coffee being served. Price is not too expensive and costly but affordable. Wifi connection is better and faster. The staffs are very kind, can speak English and helpful. There is a policy (if I am not mistaken) that after you done drinking/eating, you will be the one to clean the mess and put the tray in the proper place. Toilet is for everybody, but it is clean and there was no odor. Lots of tourists and it needs more tables and chairs Aside from being the coffee shop, they sell souvenir items
