Located in probably the most iconic passage in the city. It’s got a Goethian flair I very much enjoyed. Lovely cakes and great coffee served by very friendly and competent personnel. What I really loved was the devil’s laughter coming from the ceiling. If you...More

I had never heard the devil laugh before ... lovely cakes and coffee in the middle of a typical Leipzig passage. You can’t miss this cozy café.

In the ranking order of quirky bars this is in top 5%. The scary theme is carefully done and with surprises every now and again (do not want to spoil the surprise; go and see). Nice interior, great staff and a serious selection of alcohol...More

Very original cafe / bar, right above the famous Auerbachkeller, where Faust allegedly signed his pact with Mephisto. They don't serve any food - but then it's one of the few places that still allow you to smoke indoors. Not ideal for most of us,...More

A lovely little bar to relax with an after work cocktail and watch the world go by. Great service and so traditional. Set in a historic part of town.

My husband and I popped in here for a drink after a visit to the opera. It was rather smokey for my liking and I'd have left if my husband hadn't been so persuasive. I'm glad he did persuade me to stay for "one drink"...More

It is a Raucherbar. Expect a bit of cigarette smoke. Apart from that it is in a great location, within the passage/arcade opposite the Rathaus and directly above the famous 'Goethe/Faust' keller restaurant. That was too busy for us and also did not serve drinks...More
