Eccellent quality in food and drinks, the cakes are also amazing! Big seating area both indoor and outdoor, luxury decor, the toilets are the most sophisticated that I have ever visited so far! Excellent prime location in the square, affording a view of the magnificent Cathedral. The staff are very welcoming and professional.

5 stars

A short walk right across from the cathedral, don’t be fooled by the line, it goes pretty quick. The food is good and reasonably priced given the proximity to everything. The bathrooms are super nice just remember to bring .50€ to tip the bathroom lady. Only other bummer is people smoking at the tables but hey it is Europe. The waiters are friendly but they won’t come to your table all the time to check on you- so if you need something like mayo for your potatoes and schnitzel, make sure to flag them down early. Finally, the dessert selection is off the charts. All the cakes look amazing. I had the black forest cake and it was delicious.

Café right across from the Dom. We went during the winter which was fine (warm inside) but I guess it's nicer during the summer when you can sit outside. It's a nice place, with great cake and coffee. Quiet crowded. Quite pricey because of it's location and there is typcially a queue outside.
