Apex

Fairy-Tale Road


Started as a cabaret and culture venue in 1971, Apex offers the perfect combination of art gallery, performance venue and restaurant. The food (served 6pm to 10.30pm Monday to Saturday) is better than ever here, since Jacqueline Amirfallah and Wolfgang Nisch, formerly of Göttingen gourmet destination Gauss, took over.
