Ecletic. Authentic Germqn fare. Nice German drafts too. It would be better with traditional waiter service rather than order at the window.

The Durham Guglhupf experience was okay, and sadly not much more than that.

I stopped in for a fall lunch and chose a cup of yellow split pea soup and a Ruben sandwich. The soup appeared to be a lentil vegetable soup. It was tasty and not what I was expecting. The sandwich appeared to be made with deli sliced corned beef, much like you would expect from a grocery store selection. Again, the sandwich was okay, just not up to what I was hoping for

I readily concede that the challenges with that lunch arose from my expectations. That said, the food was well within the acceptable range versus something that left me wanting to repeat the experience.

I've had superior experiences at Guglhupf in the past and chalk it up to nobody is perfect. Even Michael Jordon had an off night every once in a while.

The net for me is, I will surely return to Guglhupf in the future. I will just avoid these choices if offered.

One of my favorite places in Durham. Great food and great atmosphere but terrible parking. I recommend avoiding during busy hours as it will be impossible to find a parking spot.

If I could give them 10 stars, I would. When the food and service are great, what you pay for it is irrelevant.

Great place to enjoy a good meal with family or friends.It can be quite crowded during lunch time. Need to order your food at the counter and they will bring it over to your table. Service is friendly. The food is delicious. The bakery has an amazing selection of bread, cakes and pastries. There is outdoor and indoor seating.

A staple of Durham, it always feels like you’re sitting out in a fairytale dining room outside. The food melts in your mouth and the pastries are divine!

The employees are very rude to their African American patrons. Do better.

Go! You won’t regret it!!

The reason, why I gave it a 4 star review overall is for the fact that the layout of their parking lot is not patron friendly. Once you pull in and turn into the back parking lot if all the spaces are full you will have to maneuver greatly to get out to the street and with the foot traffic from the parking lot to the entrance makes things more complicated.

Maybe a mirror in the entrance of the back parking lot can let the patrons know that the lot is full. Just saying...
