Ein Cafe im "klassischen" Stil mit Teppichen und Flügel für Konzertveranstaltungen, in dem man auch Gehäkeltes, Lavendelsäckchen und Seife als Mitbringsel kaufen kann. Die Kuchen und Torten sind eine Wucht und es gibt noch richtigen Filterkaffee. Die Bedienung ist schnell und freundlich und man hat einen tollen Blick über die Dächer der Stadt Willingen. Eine echte Empfehlung also!

The ambience of the restaurant and views are very special. The assortment of cakes exceeds expections. We did try 4 different ones and they were all delicious. The hospitality matched the high standard of the food/drinks. I will revisit the restaurant again.

Super schönes Café mit tollem Blick über Willingen. Die Einrichtung ist klassisch altbacken, aber sehr schön. Der Kuchen / Torten sind spitze. Auch der Café war super lecker. Hinzu kommt noch ein guter Service mit netten Bedienungen.
