But I know it's fairly close (within the same block), and I could see the SAP building, the Ferris Wheel, and Unilever building from the window in this Hafen City location. This being our first ever meal in Germany, it was absolutely fantastic and still one of my top 3. We were exploring the city on Ascension/Man's Day, so the streets were quiet at 10am, but we were pleasantly surprised to find this shop open considering many other places weren't on such a holiday. And this was my introduction to German bread. So delicious and fresh, if only the roof of my mouth could handle the crust. I'll admit my mouth was cut up quite a bit from all the bread I ate over the next 2 weeks, but it was still so good. Now I see why my German friends complain about bread in the US. I went with a klein cup of kaffee (black), and a breakfast brotchen that included smoked salmon and sliced hard-boiled egg. Whatever spices and herbs they put on it was amazing and not at all overpowering. All this for less than 5Euro. Definitely on the cheap!

Service is friendly, speaks English for me is a plus. Love German bakery, real bread! Great coffee to boot. read more Service is friendly, speaks English for me is a plus. Love German bakery, real bread! Great coffee to boot.
