On a warm day in spring, Ascension Day 2016, was a nice day in the Black Forest, we stopped on the…read moreway back to the camp site in Staufen for an ice cream. This place was recommended and I intend to agree with the previous positive reviews. The ice-store is located in the main street in Staufen and with warm wetter, you cannot overlook the queue. It took us about about 10-15 minutes. Is it worth waiting? Yes! I tasted the Muskateller wine ice and the pear-gingerbread. The latter taste was special, it was good, but in the end I will not take it again (not my taste). The first one, Muskateller wine ice, I definitely would reconsider. It's a kind of tasteful sorbet ice. Really good. Score: 4 out of 5

The ice cream, yum! The come? Perfectly crispy and sweet. This was a walk up outside business and…read moreit was just what I needed. The service? Eh. The guy who edited on me was a curmudgeon, but he seemed like a curmudgeon who could be caught occasionally smiling. I just wasn't special enough to get one of his smiles. Regardless, he knows how to scoop ice cream.

I had a scoop of vanilla and chocolate and was underwhelmed to say the least.

This one stands out because of the enormous choice. The quality is good, the staff serving is friendly and located at an A-location only a few meters from hot main market square in a side street. The only minor remark are the prices, they are a bit higher than usually: 10-20%. Probably, because of the location in tourist magnet Staufen. Overall: 4

Not the best soy lattes I've had in Freiburg but decent enough. And it was nice to sit down for a bit and relax those tired walking feet in a nice little, calm cafe with few guests.

While the cakes looked creamy & fruity & really tempting, we were all about the chocolate..... Most of their chocolates had liquor and / or fruit but there are also blends w/ roses or candied flowers as well as single blocks of milk or dark The fitness chocolate had a delish mix of nuts & fruit & was loving the marketing it as fit! We chose their Angels Kiss - this was a wine-filled chocolate that was extraordinary Also grabbed a bar of their Milk Chocolate bar that had been infused w/ honey - boy oh boy was this delish! The chocolate was incredibly creamy & the honey was sweet & flowery & added such a nice flavor layer to the chocolate - wished I had purchased about 12 more of these! For such a quick stop in, we were thoroughly impressed & would seek out Gmeiner when next in the area! You should too!

Sadly, the quality of the 'dark brew' ain't what it could be (read: extremely bitter espresso drinks) and that's a shame given how centrally located and charmingly laid out this place is. I'm a sucker for coffee sack-lined walls, funky old light fixtures and solid wood 'steh cafe' tables. To complete a place, however, one needs great product. That's where, at least java-wise, this place falls short of the mark. Props to the young gal who served us. She was so very nice. I'd like to pay for her to go to barista training school. Having said that, it could be a case of not having the best machines to work with, or, at the very least, not having them in the best working order.
