Nice atmosphere, great selection, and wonderful service. We make the extra trip every week or two to buy our coffee beans. Today I sampled an amazing espresso that comes out of Guatemala. Lovely. I highly recommend this coffee shop.

I'm not sure why I hadn't discovered this lovely Cafe in all the years I've come to visit Düsseldorf. Just down the road from mi sister's place, it's by chance she remembered I was looking for a coffee house gem. The owners are such beautiful people and not only was I excited by the vast selection of coffee, but to witness the process of roasting ... the scent of fresh roasted coffee ... amazing! Definitely a recommendation for all coffee lovers.

Highly recommend! Especially the espresso beans which are roasted in the back of the cafe. The owner is very nice and knows a lot about the coffee and can recommend the perfect blend! I am only buying my coffee beans from here

Good coffee and cake. Would not recommend banana bread though.

The cappuccino was great! The recommended vegan pastry was also really nice. However, the staff doesn't speak english so we had a hard time asking our questions about the different kinds of beans and brewing types. We wanted to get a V60 but the staff didn't understand it unfortunately. Nevertheless the coffee tasted good so we recommend the place! :)

If you know your coffee or want to learn about coffee visit one of the best precision coffee roasters in Düsseldorf! Props to the owner Farsin for taking care of me and giving me a free bag of coffee as a gesture of respect! 10/10 will go again

A coffee lover’s heaven! The staff knows their art and are happy to chat with you about tastes and nuances. I am indeed no expert, but the kindness with with they were willing to share some facts about their standard “Kaffee” with me were the secret highlight of my day. I even got a map to further broaden the insight.

Wonderful shop with very friendly and professional owners. The selection of coffee beans leaves nothing to be desired. The homemade pastries look and smell very good. However, I haven't had the chance to try them myself yet.
