Cafe Walter

So now we were finished with the brunch and wanted to have some more legs before the coffee. The weather was surprisingly dry and the sun came through a bit in the afternoon. But it remained cool this Sunday. So we first looked at the Romanesque Basilica of St. Severin; Finally, she is the name of the neighborhood. Today's Catholic parish church (The Pillar Basilica is a former parish church and was only reconverted in the Napoleonic occupation period, because the Emperor only allowed parish churches and the monasteries dissolved is one of the twelve jewels of the city. It is dedicated to the third bishop of Cologne, the Holy Severin. Pope Pius XII. raised the church on 9. March 1953 with the Apostolic Exhortation Quae antiquitate in the rank of a Basilica minor (yes also buildings can rank; here it is an honorary title for an important building – in Cologne there are six churches together, in Germany only 76 . We couldn't get inside because a renovation takes place [here link] (Cologne. Then we looked at the Rheinauhafen. There the star restaurant “Ox Klee” is set in the Kranhaus 1, which we want to visit in December. You can even park under the Severins Bridge for free on Sundays. After this walk it was time to visit a cafe to strengthen us for the cinema. I had looked at some restaurants on the internet in advance to find something original. There are some of them in the Severins District. The disadvantage is that they are all relatively small and the visitors, when they get a place, also stay long. Outside it was too uncomfortable (also with blankets that are ready and inside it was totally occupied in the first attempt. So on to the second address. When we saw the cafe, six people just went out. A good sign! So we enter Café Walter quickly. The friendly service just clears the free table and we can sit down. Ambiente The room is relatively small. On the right are some tables with armchairs and a sofa; they are already forgiven. Certainly cozy; newspapers are also ready. Theke So we take a table on the left; where this place was rather a beer table set. Pillows are on the seats. Some corners of the cafe have all the mountains. At the counter I like the large manual coffee machine. The furniture on the walls are kitchenettes from the beginnings of the Federal Republic (We are the natives of Trizones [here link] . Furniture On the table are fresh flowers. Some plates also have bumpers; but the pattern is also in English style of the 1960s. Place Young audience must feel like Grandma or even Uroma. Service Three young women take care of the guests. You're very friendly. We order espresso, latte, herbal tea and cakes. Tasty food The espresso (small or double is made fresh in the big machine. The beans are appropriately ground, the cups (or glasses are preheated and then the coffee flows into the drinking vessel. One has chosen a mixture which is relatively strongly roasted, but also creamy and balanced in the acid. A cup costs 1.90 € The large latte macchiato was made comparable and got a nice picture to finish up. Latte, large The herbal tea consisted of fresh leaves. They were accommodated in a large elongated screen. An egg watch would have been helpful for the perfect preparation. But also with an eye dimension he was round in taste. Honey, sugar or milk has been served. He beat €2.80 to beech. Cheesecake The cake is prepared here and made in the kitchen. Three cakes were selected in a glass showcase. This is a limited offer. But the cheesecake with Oreo cheese was also exactly my case (a piece of 3,60 €. The floor was tasty. The cream in the middle sawy and soft – perfect. Conclusion 4 – happy again. The place has charm. A breakfast could be a pleasure here, I think. (1 – certainly not again, 2 – hardly again, 3 – if it results again, 4 – happy again, 5 – absolutely again – after “Kuechenreise” Date of visit: 06.11.2016 – afternoon – 5 persons

A very cozy café with a cool look! Beverage selection is more exotic than usual and yet regional. But the coffee convinces me most! A very cozy, regional organic café. I'll be back!

This type of cafe might be the norm or standard in other cities but in Köln it's the exception. The service was surprising friendly and charming. The cakes..
