If you like and understand coffee, this is your place. They will literally ask you what type of bean you’d like for tour coffee and explain the differences. Real good coffee, service and place.

Lovely shop with knowledgeable and friendly owners. Bilingual in German and English. I really enjoyed the pour over coffee they made, as well as the Afghan Sugarbread. Worth a trip if you are a coffee enthusiast. Also a lot of interesting food and other drinks from around the (I think) Arabic/Persian world but I only tried the Afghan bread and a normal coffee.

I think they sprinkle magic dust into their coffee. This is simply the best place in Bamberg for coffee lovers. Tiny, immaculate, and always perfection, with a variety of coffees from small, independent roasters, and a wide variety of preparation styles (Chemex, mokka, etc) and equipment for sale. Both owner/baristas are so kind, and so good at what they do that it puts every other coffee in town to shame.
