German Pastry & Coffee Shop offers a unique, old-fashioned German-style experience. The service may seem aggressive, but it's simply a cultural difference. The bakery and deli serve great food, and the pastry ladies are lovely and amazing. The shop features a selection of sweets like Bienenstich and Streuselkuchen, which are sweet and flavorful, and the coffee is served in a thermal carafe, providing about two cups of very good coffee. On Friday and Saturday mornings, around 11 AM, they bring out freshly made Eclairs, Cream puffs, and Cream horns, which are excellent. The chef, who is part German and part French, really knows what he's doing, and the place is known for authentic pastries and cakes. Be prepared for a limited selection of soup and pastries, which often sell out by 1:30 pm. Sandwiches are made with simple ingredients and few modifications can be made. The family-run business offers a host-and-guest atmosphere, where visitors can slow down and enjoy a simple cup of coffee and a slower way of life. The shop opens at 9 AM, slightly later than expected, and is closed on Sunday and Monday, which is traditional for bakeries. Overall, it is a quaint, old-school place that feels like stepping back in time, a rare and wonderful experience in today’s society.
