The cakes are delicious, though the breakfast is rather mediocre. However I do like sipping on a coffee there, especially since they are very welcoming to my loyal doggo companion. The young waitresses are really nice, a slight contrast to the one rather grumpy older waiter. All in all recommendable.

2024:: well they have definitely hired some talent or just learned how to expand their baking horizons! Which ever it is I’m happy. They have definitely gotten better cakes and more offerings since my first visit. Now when I know I need good cakes and don’t have time to bake, I know I can always stop by and find what I need here. 2019:: I mean it's nothing to write home about. Mediocre 'German' cakes, which means bland and no sugar. I was very disappointed in the cakes as my boyfriend (a German) said they are great. Sorry but the cakes are cattered to Germans who don't know anything about baking cakes...only baking bread.

While the breakfast menu at this cafe wasn't quite my style, it did lead me to an unexpected delight: their incredible cupcakes! Forget the lack of morning fare, because the red velvet here is a true hidden gem - I haven't found one this good in ages! The mango cupcake was equally delicious, bursting with fresh flavor. Be warned, though, this popularity comes with a price. The place can get crowded, with lines forming for their spectacular cakes. But for a taste like this, a little wait is definitely worth it! If you're looking for unique and delicious cupcakes, this cafe is a must-visit, even if you skip the breakfast menu.

I really come often to this place, the prices a very good and the cake are good. In weekends is very complicated to get a placer or sometimes on week too. I recommend to make a reservation. The service is a little my problem because sometimes they are not so nice. One we had lunch and we did not like it. But the cakes are good and there are a big variety

Excellent selection, more unique options than most bakeries I've been to in Leipzig. Beautiful cakes that take my breath away! Good prices, very delicious, very kind and patient worker behind the counter.

Very tasty cakes at unbeatable prices. Long queues confirm that but the service is rather quick. The selection is very wide.
