Toddy Tapper Cologne

Cocktails in Agnes Quarter

Justine from Cologne

​About me ​I am a Belgian woman living in Cologne since 2018. I studied ecology in Belgium and Norway and, after graduating, I moved to Germany. I first lived in Gießen, then in Wiesbaden, and eventually moved to Cologne. I am currently working as a Data Steward in an infrastructure and research center in the context of a project in microbiota research. Besides my job, I enjoy cooking tradit...
"In Sri Lanka, as well as in India and Southeast Asia, they ferment the juice of the coconut flower to make a drink called toddy, hence the name of the bar."

Toddy Tapper is a cocktail bar I first read about in Hidden Cologne, an English-language city guide published by Stadtrevue. Since Hidden Cologne recommends small gems, I had to try Toddy Tapper.

Toddy Tapper was opened by Indika Silva from Sri Lanka. In Sri Lanka - as well as in India and South East Asia - the juice of the coconut flower is fermented to make a drink called toddy, hence the name of the bar. When the toddy is distilled, it is called arrack, which is used in many of Toddy Tapper's cocktails. They also use exotic spices, which makes their cocktails quite extraordinary.

The staff at Toddy Tapper are friendly, give good advice and there is a real sense of hospitality: when you sit down, you get salty snacks and a glass of water with your cocktail. Toddy Tapper's interior is warm, with an elegant wooden bar. There is also a small terrace outside. Toddy Tapper is located in the Agnes Quarter, not far from the lively jazz club King Georg.

I am currently working as a Data Steward in an infrastructure and research center in the context of a project in microbiota research. Besides my job, I enjoy cooking traditional Belgian dishes, reading classics, hiking in the forest, and, of course, exploring Cologne. Why ​Cologne? ​What I love about Cologne is that, in my Belgian opinion, it is a lar...

Südstadion Flea Market Cologne

Südstadion Flea Market

Trash or treasures

"Südstadion flea market" Cologne is the market I like most. It is only once a month, on the first Sunday. But maybe that's what makes it special.

A real gem

"Café Jakubowsk" in Mülheim Cologne is probably the first spot I discovered in the field of gastronomy. I love their all day breakfasts and Sunday roast!

Fresh falafel

Miss Päpki Cologne

Miss Päpki

THE café

"Miss Päpki" in Cologne is definitely a stereotype cafe. It reminds me very strongly of an old royal English tea house, but it's made with lots of passion.
