moment of pause

The Art of Enjoyment

Freshly baked, perfectly chilled: croissants, muffins and biscuits, served with coffee and cold drinks. Your break, your moment.

Meeting place for everyone

This is a place where people meet: for a chat, a break, or simply to be. Open, cozy, and in the center of the action – a place that connects.

Work relaxed

Plug in your laptop, grab a coffee, and take a deep breath. With us, you can be productive and relaxed at the same time – with practical docking stations and a cozy café atmosphere.

Writing postcards

Surprise someone with kind words, a little greeting, or inspiring thoughts. Get your cards and pens ready—and off you go.

Browse in the souvenir shop

A bit of nostalgia for your home or as a gift: The BEA book, Brixies, and other memories and souvenirs await you in the shop.

As local as possible

70% of our ingredients come from producers with a 30 postal code. Our goal: as close as possible.
