Cafe Knigge is more than a “Konditorei” (Patisserie), following the “Kaffehaus-Tradition”. You have a wide selection on pastries, cakes and cookies, desserts and also some savory dishes, well, a long tea and coffee menu is also available. You can taste traditional German sweets, but trendy, international and dietary choices are also placed in the vitrines. Friendly and attentive staff. Fairly priced for it’s central and touristic location.

Very nice, classical, local confectionery. Nice cakes and coffee (the filtered coffee could be better but... next time I try espresso or some mocca type) . There is friendly service and relaxing, warm environment.

Popped over from Hamburg and decided on the breakfast here. Old school looking place but they had a decent breakfast portion. Taste wise not too bad but the baguette bread is fresh and good. Good for simple fare. Might come back to try the cake the next time.

Top products, ambient, staff and service. Beautiful and big place to have lovely hot chocolate and desert. I once ordered a Rafaela cake for a birthday and it’s price was very friendly (30€) for 20 cm diameter and was beautiful and delicious. Recommend this place strongly to have a beautiful sweet afternoon, to eat delightful food or just to take away. Love it! Everytime I come I leave super happy, I’m a regular customer now

I loved this coffee shop. The cakes are so full of flavors. My chocolate cake was divine, it was light, not sweet and had a rich flavor. It is a great place to stop by, have some coffee and talk with friends. The waiter, i cant remember his name, was friendly and funny pulling some jokes in English. I am sure coming back to eat some more cake.
