What Neil B likes about Der Pioneer:
I stopped at this little coffee/pastry cafe recently during one of my daily walks. It's a little pricy for Church Avenue but my coffee was high quality and the folks working here were all very friendly. Also, worth, noting is their beautiful backyard where I sat and enjoyed my coffee! I've walked by on weekends and recommend if you like tranquility to visit during the week when they are much less crowded! View all feedback.
