This is the perfect spot for a morning coffee and a light bite for breakfast in Cologne. The location is one of the draws, with it being positioned on an idyllic square surrounding one of Cologne's medieval gates. There is limited seating inside, but plenty more outside.

Stellar experience! What a lovely, cozy coffee shop. Great location near one of the old city gates. Warm and friendly folks run the shop. They offer some unique baked goods and I cannot recommend enough the pistachio cream filled croissant. Wow. This place has great reviews for a reason.

We were in the area and visited this place by accident. What a pleasant surprise it was! Cozy atmosphere, great coffee, real Italian coffee and the paninis (Italian sandwiches) were very tasty. The owner is Italian so he knows what he is doing. Highly recommended

Amazing cafe! Great coffee and Italian snacks as the owner is Italian, so you know you're getting the good stuff 😉 The flat white, arancino and Cornetto were very delicious! Definitely recommend this place 😁

Amazing!! Great place with some vegan/vegetarian options, the service was excellent (not easy to find in Cologne). We loved it :)

MPOV (Mompointofview) We have had a fantastic experience at that café. We went on the second Christmas Day and the whole atmosphere was so calm and cozy. We have been kindly greeted by the owner and had a great coffee. Also they don't have a changing table, it's so family friendly. The seating areas are perfect for kids and toddlers and one feel that kids are welcome. Also they sell Babychino. Which is warm milk with some chocolate powder on top. Even though we didn't try the cakes but a croissant instead, the cake menu did sound so yummy Would love to visit again <3

I loved this little cafe today as we stopped for coffee, and some sandwiches. The service was kind and ready to accommodate our needs - including preparing something off menu for my dietary restrictions. I will definitely return.

At first I was skeptical when I saw the small menu, but the paninis and croissants are very good! The vanilla croissant is unlike anything I have previously had. Very cute little cafe with nice owners and a nice location by one of the old city gates. So yes, the menu is short, but everything is made with quality and care in mind; absolutely worth it. Definitely will come back next time I am in Köln!

Cozy coffee place with nice food and perfect coffee, I ordered a panini and cappuccino and it was really nice. The place has lots of Maradona pictures and as a huge football fan I really loved the atmosphere.

Excellent coffee, great breakfast And good service

Good coffee and polite service :) thanks

Good coffee and healthy breakfast. Relaxed atmosphere with mostly young customers

The place is very cosy and warm. The owner is friendly and coffee is delicious.

Very Exelent place,coffee and service!!!!

Came here for a lovely brunch and were amazed by the cosy atmosphere, service and food. We ordered a goat cheese sandwich with walnuts and honey, carrot soup and scrambled eggs, followed by the most delicious NEW YORK Cheesecake ever! Good quality food, i strongly recommend it.

Strong espresso, friendly service and cool style. We'll be back!

Very friendly barista. Excellent cappuccino. Quiet. WiFi is a bit slow.

Best place to drink and eat healthy food. Feels like beeing home, friendly service and good music, perfect if you want to relax after a stressfull day.

Cosy small = in a perfect size for a local cafe, good coffee & tea, delicious small breakfast dishes e.g. with organic eggs. German & English spoken service, very friendly! Thanks! You're becoming one of my favorite cafés in my neighbourhood.

(Translated by Google) The day was very nice in itself, but a real highlight was a visit to Jlöcklich. Pino and his family have created a real island for lovers of perfectly brewed coffee and delicious little things. A look at the menu immediately reveals that there are coffee creations that have never been seen anywhere else. Delicious! So delicious that we tested our way through several cafés. In addition, we each had a delicious ciabatta, which was cross-tasted and filled with delicious hard cheese arugula and Italian ham. Fantastic! The service was super nice and quick with us, although there was really a lot going on. The prices are completely acceptable for the quality and the nice atmosphere. The concept itself is also worth mentioning: a small, fine menu, open until 7 p.m., stress does not arise here. The only thing I regretted afterwards was that I only noticed when I paid that there were also delicious cakes. Then next time! Thanks Pino and family! Jemmellee, Max, Kevin (Original) Der Tag war an sich schon sehr schön, wurde aber durch einen Besuch im Jlöcklich zum echten Highlight. Pino und seine Familie haben hier ein wahres Eiland für Liebhaber von perfekt gebrühtem Kaffee und leckeren Kleinigkeiten geschaffen. Ein Blick auf die Karte verriet sofort, hier gibt es Kaffeekreationen, die man tatsächlich so noch nirgends gesehen hat. Lecker! So lecker, dass wir uns gleich durch mehrere Cafés durch getestet haben. Dazu hatten wir jeder ein leckeres Ciabatta, was cross getostet und mit leckeren Hartkäse Rucola und italienischen Schinken gefüllt war. Traumhaft! Die Bedienung war super nett und schnell bei uns, obwohl wirklich viel los war. Die Preise sind völlig akzeptabel für die gebotene Qualität und das nette Ambiente. Erwähnenswert ist auch das Konzept an sich: Eine kleine feine Karte, geöffnet bis 19.00 Uhr, Stress kommt hier nicht auf. Das einzige was ich hinterher bereut habe war, dass ich erst beim bezahlen bemerkt habe, dass es auch leckeren Kuchen gibt. Dann eben beim nächsten Mal! Danke Pino und Familie! Jemmellee, Max, Kevin

(Translated by Google) Chick and rustic. The idea is good, but the attention to detail is missing. Not serving something to eat, or serving burnt bread is not dramatic and the world does not end there, but that distinguishes shops that play "at the top" from those that are only second choice. You can do it that way and people seem to take it up. I will definitely come back. It has its little quirks ... you like them ... or you don't. (Original) Chick und Rustikal. Die Idee ist gut aber der Blick fürs Detail fehlt. Keine Servierte zum Essen, oder verbranntes Brot servieren ist nicht dramatisch und davon geht die Welt nicht unter, aber das unterscheidet Läden die "ganz oben" mitspielen von denen die eben nur 2te Wahl sind. Man kann es so machen und die Menschen scheinen den Laden anzunehmen. Ich komme auf jeden Fall wieder. Es hat seine kleinen Macken... die mag man...oder nicht.

Coffee is better than average, but the yogurt is plain.

Lovely place for breakfast! Delicious cornetto and cappuccino.

The coffee is good and tasty 😋 The panini sandwich is really delicious and crunchy. Recommended

Very tasty, friendly staff

The place is central and easy to find. The atmosphere is cozy. We went there in the morning @11AM and it was good to grad a little coffee with some friends. The staff was nice and helpful as well.

Great stuff, great food ! A really nice place all around :)

Prices are slighty higher then a size but overall service and everything was good

Go to this place, but for the cakes, not the coffee. You will find much better coffee in Köln, we weren’t too impressed with it. However, the lemon cake was delicious!

A very nice and cozy place where you want to stay long and come back. Thanks 😊

Wonderful cafe, super friendly staff, cosy interior - could sit there for hours. Granola, fruit and yoghurt was lovely and the coffee was one of the best I've had in Köln. Danke :)

Ordered my usual flat white with oatmilk. It was a proper one, the slight bitterness of the brew combined with the perfect coffee-milk ratio was nearly Incredible. Also the Arabica-Robusta ratio of the brew seemed to be spot on as well. Also it was sufficiently whole-bodied with long lasting, strong aftertaste. Also the café itself is a gorgeous place to get your coffee, great ambience, furniture etc. Recommended.

Best coffee and croissants we had in Cologne, great service and friendly owner! We were served croissants fresh from the oven. The place is lovely not far from the cathedral. Definitely recommend breakfast there!

Truly excellent place. Awesome coffee.

Best coffee in the area, lovely location.

Super cozy little breakfast spot with the most friendly italian owner. Try the panini and absolutely one of the deserts! Grazie mille Pino, arrivederci!

Popped in to wait for my hotel check-in in the area. It's a lovely spot to have a coffee and pass the time. Right around the corner from the medieval town gate! I had an oat milk flat white and a slice of lime cake (it was vegan!) both were very good! No complaints 💜

The atmosphere was nice: quite and a small local place. However the coffee did not meet my expectations, tasted like a cheap machine coffee.

Fabulous cafe in Cologne. Coffee is amazing. Banana cake warm and scrumptious. Lovely setting. 😊👍

Coffee so good that I ordered a second cup! Not forgetting the panini. Would love to come again!

Friendly staff, high quality and delicious paninis, great coffee.

The coffee was delicious and the environment is pleasant and comfortable. Furthermore, the whole staff was friendly and spoke great English. Highly recommend.

Excellent coffee spot that has lovely light breakfast options. Staff is so kind and attentive. Pretty tables outside with view on the old Tor and the platz. A definite recommendation if you’re in Köln.

I had coffee and cake there, the coffee was nice and cake was fresh. inside they have a small cozy sitting area perfect for winter.

My favourite cafe from my time in Cologne. Definitely the best iced cappuccino we had! Very friendly staff and would definitely recommend. Our panini, arancini and croissant were lovely, thank you ❤️

A nice little gem just outside of the city centre. Fantastic coffee, a good selection of tasty croissants, friendly staff, and a lovely location. Recommended!

Ordered a Chai Latte and Vegan panini (with eggplants and dried tomatoes). Both were fine . Taste good but nothing special.

Great place for a coffee stop! Love the vegan banana bread! Comes in different flavours like chocolate, cinnamon and more!

atmosphere is 10/10z like 90% of a cafe experience for me is how cozy a place feels. this place knocked it out of the park. Delicious coffee and paninis too. Do yourself a favour and rug up inside this cafe with a warm coffee on a cold day. Yeehaw

Very good coffee! They serve probably one of the best coffee in town - using their own blend from Van Dyck. Vegan milk is coconut, soy or oat (alpro).The decor is also with Bialetti and stuff from Italy. Very cozy inside with some high tables. Wifi provided. Outdoor seating for summer (shade). Very friendly owner and great service. The panini Marianne is vegan: Rucola, dried tomatoes and Zucchini and you can decide if you want to have olive-, garlic- or truffle oil on it It is super crispy and hot and delicious! Vegan desserts include apple cake and banana bread (chocolate, cinnamon or blueberry) Plus they’re dog friendly

All good. The service staff was kind and the drinks and food selection was good. The atmosphere is cozy and it's a perfect place to chill. I would give it 4 stars because there's a certain limit when you're allowed to pay with card.

Very cute cafe with great coffee and cakes

The coffee is ok. They take 20 minutes to grill an already made panini, when is the main product they sell. The panini is tasteless and oily. When asked about the delay, the employee got annoyed. Go somewhere else. Edit: You can hate all you want, eat the reality, you suck!

Lovely spot next to the medieval city gate. Incredible desserts (we had the stuffed pistachio cream croissant and a simple cheesecake) plus good coffee (tiny espresso and a café latte). Service from the bald middle-aged man was very friendly (he tried to speak out languages). Wishing this café many more years of success!

Extremely good coffee to start the day with Love it🥰

The food and coffee is amazing but the service is even better. We enjoyed a great brunch during our trip to Cologne and we will be back in the future. Congratulations for such a lovely place and thank you for treating us so well!
