Schön gelegenes Café inmitten der Natur. Sehr gute Qualität und freundliche Mitarbeiter. Nach dem gerösteten Brot mit Salat war ich leider zu satt für eine Probe der ansprechenden Kuchenauswahl. Beim nächsten Besuch werde ich das nachholen !

Malerisch in einer Aue gelegen besticht das Waldcafé mit seiner Ruhe und Idylle. Im Winter bei gemütlicher Beleuchtung drinnen, im Sommer auf der Terrasse, egal wo man die liebevoll zubereiteten Speisen genießt, merkt man wie viel Liebe in diesen Ort gesteckt wurde. Für mich ist das Café mittlerweile ein fester Bestandteil meiner Fahrradtouren geworden, nicht nur wegen des leckeren Kuchens sondern auch wegen dem herzlichen Team.

Ich kann mich einfach nicht satt sehen an diesem schönen alten Haus, was mitten Im Wald an der Dhünnthalsperre steht. Die Vögel zwitschern, die Sonne scheint, Pferde traben an einem vorbei… Das Café hat die besten hausgemachten Kuchen und Kaffee im ganzen Bergischen Land. Vor allem das junge Team ist super herzlich, sowas erwartet man zuerst nicht, wenn man WALDCAFE irgendwo liest. Ich kann es jedem nur empfehlen, bei schönem Wetter mit etwas Zeit zum genießen vorbei zu kommen!!
