Super nice and friendly place. Amazing pumpkin spice tea. Incredibly pretty desserts, although one expects more of the taste because of this and then it's a bit disappointing.

We shared 3 tarts from the shop. Everything tasted spectacular. The mango/passionfruit and strawberry tart was extremely creamy, fruity, and fluffy and the lemon tart had a very crispy and flaky base and very citrusy custard filling. The coffee was extremely flavourful and the nice atmosphere of the cafe ist really a cherry on top. Perfect for a relaxing sunday afternoon tea.
