"Nice little German-style breakfast café with simple, well-made dishes (do not expect anything fancy). Service was fast and friendly enough to accommodate any substitutions in our order. The menu on their website is outdated and indicates much lower prices than they actually have. I’ve attached the current menu for reference (as per mid-April 2023)."
