We arrived at noon in Kettwig. Choose this cafe for a lunch. We had a table with a view on the river. An easy lunch, scrambled eggs with ham and poached eggs with salmon. After visiting Kettwig we stopped again here for cake and coffee since the atmosphere of the cafe is great.

Seemed small on the outside but as we left we saw there was a side sitting area and an upper sitting area. Very friendly staff , we had a nice cup of coffee.

A gem of a place in this cute old town! Besides the amazing food, The coffee shop has breathtaking views of the river, the historic bridge and the beautiful nature beyond! Everything was top-notch and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Highly recommended!
