Elbgold Röstkaffee GmbH

Best coffee in town period. Try the pecorino or the homemade-cheese bagel. I saw yuppies and also mechanics take their coffee there the stuff doesn’t care. Also try the sweet cortado (just have a look at the picture I’ve uploaded).

Wanted to come here for some time and finally had a chance to stop in. First off, and most importantly, the coffee is damn good. We had large cappuccinos and both us had some cake. One was a brownie type thing with white cream somehow on top and the other was a double-chocolate mousse type thing. Basically, we were complimenting the coffee the whole time and really enjoyed it. Strong flavored with just the right amount of whipped milk and really well balanced. I'm super anal about coffee and have a top-of-the-line machine at home and buy good coffee which I grind myself. This is the first place in Hamburg where I would say the coffee is comparable or better to what I can make for myself at home. The cake on the other hand was pretty good but not amazing. My brownie thing was a bit too sweet. The chocolate mousse thing was kind of bland. Unfortunately, I found the sizing also on the small side. I don't like when you get a piece of cake that is half a kilo but when it's tiny I feel scammed a bit. The sizing needs to be increased a bit. I also found the crowd a bit odd in terms of it basically being Schanzen yuppies but they're easily zoned out and I liked the room and atmosphere in general. Plus it was sunny and you can sit nicely outside in front of the door. Anyway, do come and try this place out if coffee is your thing.
