"Went with four of my friends to Hallstatt, and had some amazing experience in this cafe. The lady staff who speaks German and English were so energetic and charming. We tried their tuna pizza and coffees. Everything was worth trying. It feels good when treated well."

Shyjal Mohamed

"Not great but not terrible, for a place with that resident/tourist ratio. We had pizzas, it wasn't terrible but probably a frozen pizza. Local beer was good. Price was high for the taste but in the evening in Hallstatt, you don't have many options. So it was okay"

berke ayrancioglu

"We tried their pizza since most other options were closed, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The outside seating is charming, offering a great spot to soak in the local vibes while enjoying the meal."
