Exzellente Bedienung, sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Vor allem Frau Pucher! Unser Aufenthalt hier war sehr schön, nur zu empfehlen!:)

Sehr gutes und reichliches "Genießer und Großes Frühstück". Sehr nettes und freundliches Personal. Die Duchgangsstraße ist im Außenbereich störend. Zuerst kam der Lieferdienst, dann die Müllabfuhr, dann Autos,.....und alles genau 5m neben unserem Frühstück.

Ganz entzückendes Café, innen etwas altbacken. erinnert an eine Berliner Eckkneipe Im besten Sinne. Total gemütlich, einfaches und sehr gutes Essen, angemessene Preis und man kann schön sitzen vor allem mit Kindern

Wir haben nur einen schnellen Kaffee getrunken,die Bedienung war sehr nett und Aufmerksam! Kommen gerne wieder.

Piatti tradizionali e un servizio attento. Si sforzavano di parlare in italiano. L'ambiente piuttosto normale

Personale gentile, tavoli sia interni che esterni, servizio rapido, e prezzi onesti, vasta scelta di coppe gelato molto invitanti!
