wir haben gestern eine Trauerfeier im Milchcafé absolviert. Trotz dessen, dass das Café am Wochenende eigentlich nicht geöffnet hat, hat die Chefin extra für uns ihr Geschäft geöffnet und uns einen wunderschönen Nachmittag und eine Gebührende Abschiedsfeier meiner Mutter veranlasst. darüber sind wir sehr dankbar, und auch die Umsetzung des besprochen war super. Meine Erwartungen wurden mehr als übertroffen. Auch das Essen und die Getränke waren mega lecker, das Ambiente total schön. Vielen Dank für den schönen Mittag für den dennoch traurigen Anlass

Great little cafe with good eating and drinking options including decaf coffee and gluten free crepes. The downside is that it has bad acoustics inside and the tables are very close together so it’s hard to hear your own conversation over the sound of others.
