The staff is very friendly and some speak decent English, just in case your German is a bit rusty. The prices are fair, the seating both inside and out is nice (although, if your plus size, I don't recommend the outdoor chairs, they were designed for slim Germans), and the atmosphere is relaxed. Great for meeting a friend for coffee, or getting ice cream with the kids.

THE OWNER complained that my wife took too long to get the money and now he has to pay his employee overtime. We were never informed that they did not accept card. We were never given a choice to not eat here. We were coerced into purchasing something we could not opt out of. STAY AWAY.

Görlitz is a beautiful city that miraculously survived destruction in World War II, while Dresden…read morereceived the wrath of the British and American bombardment. Later, it was not remade by the Soviet bloc East German government due to insufficient funding, which would have demolished many of its old buildings (by then seriously distressed). Consequently it became the best preserved example of German Baroque architecture in the country. The Espresso-Bar Cafe Kränzel is a jewel of a place that epitomizes the charming character of Görlitz. It is located in one of the best areas of the city -- in fact the historic core. If you are walking between the Untermarkt (the older and smaller market square) and the church of Sts. Peter and Paul (a glorious architectural colossus), your likely path will be on the street called Neissstrasse. That would bring you directly to the Cafe, at the corner with the street Kränzelstrasse. The proprietor of the Cafe is a wonderful person. I learned that he, a bright artistic type who is quite personable, studied the art of coffee (in its many magnificent varieties) in Italy, perhaps the best place to learn all about it. Anyone who visits this place will feel most welcome, and certainly they will be treated to some of the best offerings available in this lovely city. The Cafe Kränzel is a great part of discovering the wonders of Görlitz.
