Cool place, friendly staff and got some tasty kombuchas and coffees on offer. Cakes look good too. Takes a few minutes to get the drinks but the relaxed ambience makes you want to stay there all afternoon anyway :)

Love this hip little coffee shop in Cologne! It was a little hard to find, but trust the process. The inside is very small, but there was plenty of outdoor seating. I’m pretty sure most of the ceramic cups were handmade by a local potter too and I loved them. Small bites menu, and oat milk is the only milk

I recently visited this oasis in Mülheim in Cologne, owned by Mario and Jennifer, and I have to say I was thoroughly impressed. The products and services offered are not only of the highest quality but also produced with the utmost care and passion. I had the pleasure of trying their specialty coffee, including a filter coffee from Honduras and an espresso from Ethiopia, both of which were expertly roasted by Ebrahim at Farben Kaffee in Berlin. The owners are dedicated to offering only products that are as natural and cruelty-free as possible. From hand-picked natural wines to specialty coffee, you can trust that everything you purchase here aligns with Mario and Jennifer's values and philosophy of life. Support this business to support a more sustainable and conscious way of living and treat yourself to a truly satisfying experience like I did.

The place and location is pretty cool. A bit off the grid and really nice . Service is terrific. The only drawback was that they only serve plant based products so there was no cow milk for coffee. Then again, this is a subjective criticism. I personally like coffee with cow milk so for me it was a bit of a let down. However, coffee itself was great :)

Great coffee, cake with self-made flour and a cafe decorated with love. The owners are putting a lot of thought and love in this place and it shows. One of my fav cafes in Cologne, I just wish they‘d be open more often.
