Café Alter Schwede - Coffee & Brunch

I don’t want to exaggerate but one of the best brunches I’ve ever had. Very friendly staff, they make you feel home. Food is amazing portions are huge, food quality is premium. Cinnamon roll is a must try. Definitely will be my breakfast place whenever I’m in Bonn

Great Cafe with Amazing Food 🥐☕🍓 Lovely spot with delicious food and a cozy vibe. Tried the yogurt bowl with granola and fruit—so good! 🥣✨ Their famous cinnamon roll didn’t disappoint either. 🌀😋 It’s usually crowded, so booking ahead is smart 📅. Service was a bit slow 🐢, but the food made it worth it. A little pricey 💸, but overall a great experience!

We visited this café for breakfast as a group of four and ordered a wide variety of drinks—double espresso, espresso tonic, cappuccino, Americano, and fresh orange juice. The coffee was good overall, though not exceptional. The espresso tonic in particular could have benefited from a higher quality tonic water. Service was a bit slow, but the staff were friendly and welcoming, so no complaints there. We sat outside and really enjoyed it—it was summer, and the surrounding streets were quiet enough to relax and enjoy our time. We can’t comment on the interior, but the exterior atmosphere was lovely. The design felt authentically Swedish, clean and minimalistic. We tried several food items, including the granola bowl, Pancakes Stockholm, avocado sandwich, and falafel bowl. Everything was extremely tasty and definitely a highlight of our visit. The cinnamon buns were also amazing—vegan, so they lacked a bit of that buttery richness, but still very satisfying. We didn’t check for Wi-Fi or power outlets, so we can't comment on that. All in all, a great spot for a relaxed outdoor breakfast with high-quality food and decent coffee.

Lovely spot in the Museum-area in Bonn! The (vegan!) cinnamon buns were excellent, especially since they were still warm from the oven. The rosemary lemonade was also very tasty. The only downside was the wait time for service. We were seated outside to the side of the building, not on the main terrace, so we were out of sight of the servers on a busy Sunday afternoon. Would visit again, though!

The cappuccino with plant-based milk is delicious, creamy and really well made. Plus, they serve hot meals, which makes all the difference when I want something more than just coffee. In another visit (this is one of the cafés I like to go to), I tried the espresso macchiato it came in the classic Italian style, very short and strong. For those who prefer a bit more water, it’s good to mention it when ordering. Another great thing: it’s close to home! Whenever I can, I stop by after a walk.

Such a lovely place! I really enjoyed a delicious sandwich, but what impressed me the most was the amazing coffee – rich, flavorful, and perfectly made. The service was also excellent, very friendly and attentive. Definitely a spot I’d love to come back to!☺️

Today I had the pleasure of discovering this wonderful café — and I instantly felt at home. The coffee is amazing, the service is super warm and friendly, and they even have a great little area for kids to play. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay a little longer. Can’t wait to come back!

It was my first time here and I know I’m definitely visiting it again soon. Food was delicious and affordable price, and there are various summer drinks to cool down. I ordered Lax Burg (salmon & avocado) and my friend ordered Egg Florentine (egg, mushrooms & spinach) as well as cinnamon roll, all of them were amazing with really nice price!! Nice Scandinavian interior and lots of outdoor seating available. They do accept card payment which is also a plus:)
