Located in the red-light district, at the Hans-Albers-Platz, the Pizzeria Alt Hamburg is famous and well known by many people here. If you come late at night, a big bunch of people stand in line in front of the small window.

Simple signs, simple pizza, simple prices = simply good!

With a big fire oven in the background, the staff is always absolutely stressed, even if there’re only 3 people waiting. My favourite pizza is Pizza Napoletaner with anchovies!! Delicious!

You also could sit inside, but nobody does it. No plates, no cutlery – just Pizza in a table napkin.

Don’t tell Mama offers cheesecakes in diverse variations and two sizes and they are so incredibly delicious. This small café is located at the end of Paul-Roosen-Straße. When you enter it you find a very unpretentious room with a few, lovely selected furnitures and details, then you walk straight on to a glass-counter filled with all these great cakes. If you love cheese-cakes as well you really should go there and spend some afternoon hours with a coffee, a good magazine and your cake.

Last time I went there for an afternoon coffee and had this chocolate-cheese-cake – what can I say, it is amazing.

Café Mimosa is located in a beautiful part of St. Pauli, in the Clemens-Schultz Straße. It is a calm and very cute place with fine food and coffee specialities. I love to go there for breakfast. You get a selected range of cheese and everything is decorated with love and looks delicious and elegant.

Beside breakfast you get really good homemade cakes and brioches. For lunch they offer tasty snacks like toast, ciabatta with goat cheese and fig for examples, soups or one pasta dish. The interiour is very cosy with wooden tables, a dark red wall and a chandelier, but not overloaded and still decent.

They close very early in the evening so you should go there for breakfast, snack or afternoon-cake-break. For me it is a good place to work, as they offer W-Lan and it is quiet. And one thing: I adore the small homemade cookie with marmelade topping you get together with your coffee. You will know what I mean.
