"Its location and bigger size of cafe makes beautiful and unique. Unfortunately they did forget some stuffs and keep asking twice. Waffle, scrambled eggs were really good but bread could be little moist but was dried. They also have a lot of other merchandise, great place for huge groups, snacks and so on."

"I visited this place for the first time because it was recommended for coffee. To be honest, the coffee wasn’t the best. It was bitter and oily, as if the coffee beans were over-roasted and not prepared in the best way. I understand that a lot of this may depend on the barista working during a particular shift. This was my experience, but yours might be better. Overall, I liked the atmosphere of the place, and as far as I understood, it’s self-service"

"Lovely cafe right by the lake in Freidrichshafen. Lemon meringue pie was delicious, and the coffee was great. The rest of their menu also looks good. This was the view from our table outside in front of the cafe. They need more than one toilet, though! It gets very busy but I highly recommend a visit!"

"Very nice place with delicious toasts. I had the Firenze toast with avocado spread and grilled bell peppers and it was the best. Coffees are also nice and pastries also good."

"I realy like this place. No matter if you want a delucious snack to eat on the run or to have some minutes break with a coffee and delicious cake, this is the place to be. They have a great variety of eatable things, which will make your decision hard. And they also have the best ice in town! On top of this, on the side with lake, it comes the nice view on the lake like the cherry on top of the cake."

"We drink coffee almost every day because it's the best in the area (yes, we are quite particular and really enjoy our coffee). The place is spacious, so it never feels overcrowded. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and they don’t interrupt us every 20 minutes to ask, "Is everything okay?"—which often feels like a hint to order something. So, thanks!"

"Unique apartment style rooms tucked away above a department store in an excellent location on the lake - center of Friedrichshafen. Modern amenities within hotel room, with reasonable pricing. Breakfast was a fabulous experience among locals - as a hotel guest, we were given unique options geared towards guests. Fabulous/extremely nice staff took care of our breakfast needs and walked us straight to check out after finishing our morning. We wished we could stay longer. Highly Recommend!"
