Very beautiful terrace with an old water mill converted to generator. Menu is not very big and a bit expensive for what you get, but the view next to the river Pader is definitely worth a cup of coffee.

Nice location in a old waterpowerd mill that is still working. Not just your average cafe, they offer organic foods and coffee as well.

Service was top notch ... Ambience was fabulous. The vegan brownie was very dry. The waitress was friendly and so too was the chef who was at the cashier.

Just a real chill cafe, loved their "lemonade" and their sweet waffle was also nice. The atmosphere is enjoyable since you hear the relaxing sound of water constantly streaming down. The service is great, the workers speak english and also give their own recommendations. - Just a chill guy from Sweden.
