Came here as it was on the way to our next destination on our holiday in Costa Rica, and because they were constantly advertising themselves along the road to the bakery. We shared some bakery treats and my father had a coffee as he was driving.
The chocolate and passion fruit cake was really good and so was the croissant. The coconut thing was quite dry as was the other thing we got. They make good bread and we bought some for the following day.
Whilst they sell trinkets there, they looked quite expensive and we elected to just share some nice treats before we got back on our way.
The staff are quite friendly and there is free wifi too.
Hope to return someday.

We stopped on our way to Lafortuna for lunch. We had the schnitzel and bratwurst sandwich. The only good thing was the bread for the sandwich. This is overly hyped up on the internet. I have been to Vienna and Germany and this was not good food. The schnitzel had Hungarian hot paprika and it was over cooked and the Bratwurst was so small it was lost in the bread. We were eating a mustard sandwich. The waiter was so slow and I had to go to the counter twice to get the check. I had thought our waiter had gone home but nope he was just no where to be found for 30 mins. I wouldn’t recommend this place. The building is pretty cool for pics and maybe a coffee but not for the food.

We stopped for lunch on our way to the airport. I thought the portions were a good size, and the food was good. It is not often I can find white bratwursts. It came with a big pretzel. You can get it with a beer. We got a big plate of spatzle noodles and a bottle of water that we shared. The place reminded me of a little wooden Caribbean restaurant. The German manager waited on us wearing a pretty, new dress.
For the bakery, the cheese cakes sitting out on the counter looked a bit overcooked or at least more brown spots than I am used to.
The store had a variety of Costa Rican chocolate and other foods/gifts, and we ended up spending more in chocolate bars for gifts than we did on our two lunches.
I think it is really great place to support the locals and get a good lunch or dinner with a German flair since the menu looked extensive, but I would not stop here just to get bakery goods.

I have dined in for their Oktoberfest and have also done take out on a few occasions. I mostly came here for their bread loafs, however the quality has gone down and prices have gone up in the last 4-years, so it’s been a while I haven’t bought their bread loafs. Negro was my “go to”. Not the case today.
In this particular instance I stopped in for coffee and a pastry. Coffee was awful and over priced. They gave me half a cup for $3 and the taste was terrible. I had 2 sips and threw it out. The picture I posted will show you exactly the level I got. I also purchased a cinnamon roll, but it did not taste like cinnamon plus it had some yellow jelly. Couldn’t tell what the jelly was. Too sweet and definitely not cinnamon. They have plenty of pastry options. Too heavy for my taste. I’m sure some are great, just not my experience. Croissants are okay.
I do not like to post negative reviews, and I’m happy to change it once they make the necessary changes. I mean let’s be real. Coffee is not hard to make plus we are in Costa Rica. How can you go bad with coffee in this country?
Restaurant side has plenty of tables outside and cute decor. I can’t remember what I ate here during Oktoberfest, but I will say if I’m impressed I’ll usually post it. Again, not the case. Restrooms are clean. Parking is easy. Staff is friendly.
I will likely never go back, unless someone tells me they’ve changed things.

A surprising German gem on the road!
We stumbled upon this bakery by chance and were so glad we did. Traveling with a German, I had high hopes—and they were exceeded. The bread, the pretzel, the apple strudel… all delicious and fully approved by my travel companion. A fun and tasty detour on our way to our next destination. Highly recommend if you’re craving something hearty and authentic!

We stopped for coffee and I was pleasantly surprised to see labelled vegan options on the menu! We got the vegan sandwich and a pretzel and both were excellent. Lovely patio seating, I was very happy that there was no loud music playing

To be honest… nothing German about this place.
More a tourist trap.
Yes. They serve some german food, but that’s it. We had smoothies they were ok, and some people sitting next to me told me the food is also OK. It has some German pastries, but not really authentic as they don’t look fresh, some even burnt, and the presentation doesn’t look very healthy. Cleanliness can be improved.
Staff is polite, but nothing more. Proactivity could be better, don’t look very motivated. But of course, in all fairness, I don’t know the reason. They look like nice people.
The outdoor seating is nice with some views, but 2 tables were dirty and it could do with a bit more upkeep.
Overall, not a bad spot to stop for a drink when on the road like we did. But that’s just about it
Unfortunate, because it has potential!

And BTW… the place if for sale, date of writing and visit is 2025-04-28

As my husband and I were enjoying our first vacation in Costa Rica, we came across a German restaurant; how wonderful!! We stopped in for beef goulash and spätzle, and bratwurst. We had so much fun reminiscing about our time in Germany and enjoying our meals that I absentmindedly left my phone behind. An hour-and-a-half away and approaching our next destination, I realized my blunder. What to do??? With help from our friends, we contacted with the owner (via FB Messenger); ja, we don’t speak Spanish. Anyway, the owner spoke English and long story short, the phone was held for us at the restaurant until we could return. I want to say, how very much I appreciate that we were able to talk with Tom to work out logistics. I so very much appreciate the integrity of the staff and guests. And a special thank you to Maryuris, who found and moved my phone to a safe location. If we are able, we will definitely be back, not only for the lovely people, BUT also for the amazing, yummy german food!!

Def worth the stop. We ordered the fried bratwurst with potato salad and sauerkraut and also the white sausage with pretzel. Was happy they also have vegan baked goods (the vegan apple thing was really good) as I can’t have lactose! Sweet and savoury. Tasted like my grandmas growing up and a nice surprise in the middle of the area.

The food was truly amazing, particularly the bread! I had the chance to try their delicious vegan sausages, which I could have easily mistaken for traditional meat sausages if I hadn’t known they were plant-based. The apple strudel was a delightful indulgence, and the iced coffee was the perfect finishing touch. All in all, it was an utterly enjoyable dining experience!
