This must be one of the coziest cafes in Heidelberg offering probably one of the best coffees in town. If you are after a good cup of coffee this place should be towards the top of your list. In my experience, the staff was very friendly, and the service was prompt and professional.

I'm in love with their matcha and coffee. Their coffee/matcha to milk ratio is always top tier. It is also such a cozy and calm place and I love studying there. At some point I've been there for 3 or 4 days in a row. Definitely would recommend.
