Ordentliche Tasse guten (verveine) Tee dazu eine heisse Waffel mit einer Art Schokosauce. Meine Form ist nicht happy aber rund ist ja auch eine Form, denn als nächstes gehe ich die Zimtschnecken probieren Nach dieser Sünde konnte ich gleich noch meiner Büchersucht nachgeben. Das Café befindet sich nämlich in einer Buchhandlung drin.

Also wunderbar. Essen und trinken alles sehr gut. Alles so liebevoll dekoriert. Sehr gemütlich zum Sitzen. Fasst wie im Wohnzimmer. Man vergisst fasst, dass es im Buchgeschäft ist. Personal sehr freundlich und geduldig. Immer ein Lächeln für die Kunden. Gratulation ans Team. Komme gern wieder. Danke

Eine kleines Bijou in der Aarauer Altstadt (im ehemaligen Affenkasten). Besonders empfehlenswert sind neben dem richtig guten Cappuccino auch die hausgemachten Waffeln - köstlich! Für mich der perfekte Ort zum verweilen, geniessen und sich verführen zu lassen.

I had the Husschoggi (house chocolate aka hot chocolate) and was very happy with that choice. They also have espresso drinks and chocolates. A great place to warm up while exploring Aarau.

Sehr herzliche, kompetente Mitarbeiterinnen und der beste Cappuccino der Stadt. Trinkgeld über Kartenzahlung nicht möglich. Appell an das Management, bitte macht das möglich, so ein super Service muss der Kunde belohnen können und Münz hat heutzutage kaum mehr jemand.
