Sehr leckere Torten direkt vor der Basilika. Man kann sehr schön im Garten sitzen.

Dieses Café direkt neben der Kirche ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber dennoch sauber und ansprechend. Die Küchenauswahl ist gut. Wir hatten Heidelbeertorte und Schwarzwälder Schnitte. Beides war frisch und sehr lecker. Die Größe der Stücke in Ordnung. Unsere Cappuccinis waren in großen Tassen und schmackhaft. Der Service war sehr freundlich obwohl das Café voll besetzt war und die Dame allein arbeitete. Hier sucht man das Gewünschte an der Theke aus und nimmt es selber mit an den Sitzplatz. Getränke werden dann an den Tisch gebracht. Zum Schluss wird an der Theke bezahlt. Ein kostenloser Parkplatz ist gleich nebenan.

Has great small town feel. The church next to it is just massive for such a small place.

Sehr schönes Café in angenehm ruhiger Lage! Die Plätze aussen sind im kleinen Gärtchen nebenan. Angenehm schattig unter Obstbäumen. Hatten Kaffee, Latte und Espresso. Auch drei verschiedene Kuchen. Alles frisch und lecker. Sehr empfehlenswert!!! Gerne wieder!

Selbst wenn es die Abteikirche nicht gäbe, wäre der Besuch hier ein Muss: Denn die Kuchenauswahl und natürlich die Torten sind hervorragend!!!

Erstklassige selbstgemachte Tortenauswahl, die einen optisch schon überzeugt! Wir haben die Windbeutel-Beerentorte und die Toffife-Torte probiert - sie waren super und absolut empfehlenswert. Die Chefin war sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und kundenorientiert, ebenso die nette Mitarbeiterin. Ein Café wie es wich jeder wünscht. Die Lage neben der Basilika ist ein Traum. Wir kommen nun öfter!
