And we were told to get the original chocolate covered one. Great gifts for family at home and affordable. Then we ventured upstairs for some cake - Kuchen! It was a delight the one I ordered. Everyone enjoyed their drinks and lunch. And I ate cake for lunch, sounds perfect to me.

On the first floor there is space to rest, have lunch or eat cake while watching the ships. The staff was nice but a little bit slow and they realized they didn't have a few things of the menu when they were serving my lunch, which meant my company got their lunch a lot later.

Service is very nice for someone not speaking german they made a nice effort to help us understand…read moreeverything. We had several different deserts all were very yummy. The feel of the place is very comfortable and cozy.

It's the coffee roastery & cafe that's in the same row of old warehouses as the Miniatur Wonderland…read moreand Hamburg Dungeon near the Sandbrücke. This building in the Speicherstadt dates back to 1888. The café and shop is very popular. They have a color-code system that divides the coffee they roast into 5 different categories. The shop is very organized. Upon entering, it's not so clear where you need to go to be seated. You'll see the shop to the left, and the roastery & equipment is front & center. I believe this area may be reserved for coffee tasting tours, but I'm not sure. The hostess stand is all the way to the right side of the café. That's where you'll need to line up for table service. There was no wait for us. They happened to have a high-top available. The only 2 seats left in the café. It was bustling on a weekday. I could hear many different languages being spoken around us. It's as if we were in a museum café. The ambiance is very nice, but loud at times. Our waiter was very helpful when making our coffee selections. You get to choose the type of espresso and the coffee preparation. There are 4 different types. We both chose the Il Gusto Espressomischung in a latte macchiato form. I love how the menu gives you the different types of notes and finishes. She also provided a pastry & dessert menu. We selected 2 different kinds of franzbrötchen. One was made from spelt. Unfortunately, they didn't seem fresh. They would have been better served warm. The cinnamon rolls were dry, but had good flavor. Not too sweet, which is a good thing. The coffee was very good, but not as robust as we'd hoped it would be. We probably should have selected the Honduran one. It was still a lovely experience, and the service was great. There are clean restrooms as you're exiting from the other doorway. There were so many things that I wanted to buy at the shop. I was reminded of mom when I saw the old fashioned wooden coffee grinders. She brought one back from Germany when I was a teenager. She loved that little grinder. If anything, definitely make a stop here to shop for coffee, candies, and souvenirs. They have all kinds of local goods in one beautiful store. The chocolate covered cherries and strawberries that we purchased are excellent. You'll just have to experience it for yourself when in Speicherstadt.

One of the best coffees in Hamburg! Definitely a must visit! I love to come here and also buy some…read morecoffee for myself and others as a present since they have s nice coffee shop with also dome sweets and coffee necessities :)
