Kaffee

Traditional cafés that are often part of a confectionery shop often serve Germany’s famous coffee and cakes. Coffee powder is placed in a filter and percolated and then served in cups or coffee pots. Most cafés and restaurants also serve cappuccino, espresso and café au lait ("Milchkaffee"). In the larger cities there are also numerous Turkish and Arabic cafés.
