The best coffee in Linz so far. Light roast, specialty, you name it. Lemon loaf cake is really great as well as bread. Yeah prices are above the middle, but the quality is too

Nice and stylish place. But not enought place to seat inside with comfy (only two tables, but when door is open/close it‘s very cold sitting there). But so lovely view from this tables. No options to add smth in sandwiches (for example, sandwich only with ham - you can‘t add cheese). Coffee is great! I try almond croissant - lovely too. Price is higher than in others bakeries, but ok. A lot of customers - it‘s seems very popular place! p.s. And there is NO toilet.

Super nice bread. I got the one with walnuts! It's so worth paying for and definitely the best bread I have found so far in Linz. It's nice and fluffy, not stone hard like the other loaves of bread at other bakeries. Friendly service as well!

Visited twice two weeks ago when i have worked shortly in Linz. Coffee was excellent, had Flat White, it was great and from excellent beans. Some other coffee drinks i have seen being prepared or served looked great, but there is only this much caffeine i can take, otherwise i would try some other (it was super hot and some of the iced coffees looked great). Food was great both times: small sandwich with local ham, pickles and relish - super good. My wife had butter and cheese sandwich, plain, but perfect, well done and good ingredients. Next morning we had some breakfast stuff, chia pudding with mango jam, porridge with dark chocolate, danish, crossaint. All good. Prices were decent. Not cheap, but neither crazy expensive. Much recommended.
