Description
Café Karin is a city-centre oasis located directly opposite Goethe's birthplace at Großer Hirschgraben. Its student charm is tempered by a hint of urban coolness and the breakfasts are legendary, starting at just EUR 1.50 for a croissant with butter and jam. At lunchtime, light meals are served for EUR 7-17. In the summer customers compete for an outdoor table so that they can watch the comings and goings on the streets outside. The decor is pleasantly worn, with practicality taking precedence over beauty. The relaxed and unfussy ambience attracts young people and families for whom the café has become a home from home.
