Cozy sweet café next to the city center. Not crowded and spacious. Offers free magazines and newspapers to read

Nice barman But the place is too much normal for a bar And They have some games for us

Maybe it is just nostalgia speaking but the ice cream they are serving in the summer is one of the best there is. The service is nice and the street beside is not that loud. It also has this unique charm I dont seem to be able to describe.

Best cappuccino in Austria. Great coffee and sunny outdoor seating make this cafe one of Innsbrucks' hidden secrets. Thank you!

Very nice cafe/bar with friendly service and good cocktails. Recommendation
