I have to say, this is arguably one of the most beautiful cafes I've been to. The place is stunning and authentic. The cheesecake was delicious, the cream on top was delightful. Seriously, it was so good. I know some complained in the other reviews, but this is not your public toilet, it is a historic café nearby Sanssouci (where there are public clean toilets, so go there!!! Be a good educated tourist!!!) It's also a very German place, so don't expect it to be international - I understand it's a tough culture. I've been living in Germany for 7 years. Just tune your expectations to something very German, and enjoy the wonderful cakes, the good coffee, and the incredibly beautiful place!!! And the lady was so sweet!!!
