Café LIVRES

We arrived here around 8 (closing at 9 pm) and were treated to a lovely dinner. There are plenty options for vegan or vegetarian dished even the menu is not too big. Everything looked and tasted good. Lovely place to have lunch or just a coffee with a piece of cake. They have beautiful art work as well at display at the moment which you can buy as well.

This easily became one of my favorite places to hangout at with my friends. Be it the vibes, the food, the service everything is exquisite. It’s giving such nice calming vibes where you could have nice deep conversations you could even spot people reading books, working on essays or some friends playing card games. Really fun place to hang out and chill. The hot chocolate is a bonus that stole my heart. The one i tried was called the nutcracker.

I really liked the atmosphere here. Also delicious food with a variety of interesting ingredients, ʼlightʼ and fresh. But I didn't like the service. We had to ask for extra cutlery twice, and I don't really understand why we were denied dessert at 8:15pm that we even agreed to take with us. the cafe closes at 9, and they justified it by the fact that they had already washed the dishes and the showcase. however, there were still enough people inside. this is not an objective reason for me, I left with a negative aftertaste.

I go there always when I want to have a coffee in good vibes only. The staff is always so friendly🤩

I have been on the look out for a great coffee place for some time now. It took me a while to find the one for me. But now I can say that I found it. This establishment points with its great calming atmosphere, its incredible coffee, vegan friendly options and its great service. I enjoy coming back here after work or on weekend days to get my mind off the busy life and just enjoy a cup of coffee or a great book, that you can choose by your liking! Highly recommend!

Their rotating specials menu is a highlight for me. Both times I’ve went, I’ve had delicious pasta! Really cute atmosphere and good service. Also plenty of vegan options.

Our favorite place in Essen. A comfortable spot for any time of the day, to work, meet with friends, spend the entire evenin, have an early dinner,... I recommend the entire menu, from their quiche to their croissant and omelettes, all homemade. All drinks can be made with various types of milk. Staff is wonderful.

It was my favorite place in Essen but it’s now been 3 times that I’ve come, waited for ~10 mins and was not serviced. And today was the last time I will ever come to this place. 👎

Long wait but worth it. Call to reserve a table before. Nice options for hot chocolate and food.
