How does a place that oozes class only get 3*. There are positives. The 80pc cocoa hot chocolate rocks like thin Lizzy (look it up kiddies). The cakes look the goods but the only one I try, kugelupf (well, my mum called it that), is so dry, I reach for the nearest liquid to avoid asphyxiation...thank goodness it was the sample for my parole officer. The breakfast is generous for €11, but I'd prefer less and higher quality. The bread is poor par bake, and most of the cheese not really the goods. The meats and butter are good, as is the marmalade. The egg is freshly cooked. The chocolates seem worthy, but are eye wateringly expensive. I think this is one of those places that with experience, you can choose well consistently. The service too is very welcoming and caring, if not pushed to capacity.
