Nettes Cafe. Die Einrichtung ist eher industriell, trotzdem ist die Stimmung, auch durch die freundlichen Mitarbeiter, eher entspannt/gemütlich. Kaffee und Süßgebäck waren ausgezeichnet. Die Teleauswahl war überschaubar aber ausreichend. Toilette und Gastraum waren außerdem sehr sauber. Volle Empfehlung.
