The hot chocolate comes with a big chocolate ball that melts in hot milk&mdash;so good. Cash only though.

The pizza was properly good&mdash;crispy crust, decent amount of toppings. Prices felt fair for the quality. Cozy little place, staff didn&rsquo;t hover but were nice when I had a question. Solid pick if you&rsquo;re in the area and want something easy without overthinking it. Maybe not a destination spot, but I&rsquo;d come back.

The mixed grill was properly seasoned and juicy. Place was packed on a Tuesday night, which says enough. Rustic pub vibe, nothing fancy. Just solid food.

Stopped here on the bike ride up to the castle. Cold German beer and a shady spot outside&mdash;just what I needed. Didn&#39;t eat, but the menu looked alright.

Nice vibe, but if you&#39;re vegan, it&#39;s basically just the salad. They do have a veggie burger though. Shisha was solid, staff friendly enough.

Stopped by after a long walk and really liked it. I had the baked potato with lentil curry&mdash;simple but done well. They&rsquo;ve got a decent vegan selection, which is nice to see. Service was friendly enough, and I didn&rsquo;t feel rushed. Just a heads-up: it can get a bit busy around midday, so you might wait a few minutes for a seat.
