Leipzig


This retro-styled and quite charming establishment draws a bohemian crowd with its rustic menu, back-to-basic Saxon dishes and a splash of more contemporary specials and fresh salads. Its extensive drinks selection, including rich espresso from Trieste and a long tea list, is a further draw.
