Café

In peace and quiet, reflect on the impressions from the Kunsthalle, exchange ideas about them – away from the stressful environment of our everyday lives and yet in the middle of the city: the café invites you with a wonderful view of the sculpture garden to fine pâtisserie and a bistro offer in the form of breakfast and lunch dishes.
Here, with dedication to the sweet art of precise pâtisserie, all the tartes and cupcakes are made individually, using only natural, seasonal, largely regional ingredients from local farmers and producers. The result: Exclusively homemade food and beverages that are not available in the region in this form a second time.
A perfect place for connoisseurs, slow food lovers and friends of cultivated coffee culture.
The café is owner-operated and offers the possibility for celebrations as exclusive, closed parties outside the regular opening hours.

Lea Nüsgen is a master confectioner by conviction. After her training as a traditional German confectioner, she spent 8 years working in various areas where sweet delicacies play a role: At home and abroad in upscale restaurants and hotels, she has served desserts to stars and starlets as well as high-ranking politicians. She has worked in modern as well as classic confectionery, focusing on pure, no-frills perception of flavor and texture in Italian artisan ice cream making. During this intense period, she honed her skills and her very own understanding of creativity in the world of pâtisserie. Through travel projects with a professional aim, she has explored the origins of the production and history of regional, European confectionery. Lea Nüsgen has been putting all her experience into practice now since 2018 with her purely artisanal pâtisserie. The pâtisserie, which does not correspond to the classic German confectionery in result and production, fascinates her to this day. She delights in every delight of your guests and curiosity about this special world in her baking classes.
