FRIEDAS in Braunschweig settles comfortably into the local café scene with a laid-back atmosphere that invites lingering over a well-crafted coffee or a light brunch. Tucked on Prinzenweg, it draws a mixed crowd of students, remote workers, and weekend wanderers who appreciate a relaxed spot with a touch of urban charm.

The café’s selection leans toward fresh, approachable fare that fits perfectly with a casual morning or midday stop. Staples like avocado toast—sometimes topped with a perfectly poached egg—and inventive offerings such as the vegan Maulwurfkuchen mirror the thoughtful, modern approach to café menus common in Braunschweig’s evolving food scene. The coffee here, including milky lattes with oat milk and the classic Latte Macchiato, receives consistent nods for quality and care.

Outdoor seating adds a welcome option, especially on mild days when the small beer garden becomes a quiet refuge from city bustle. Inside, the vibe is quietly friendly, boosted by staff who are not only efficient but also accommodating to visitors who don’t speak German, which helps keep the place approachable to travelers and locals alike.

FRIEDAS tends to buzz gently during brunch hours and slows into a more intimate pace later in the afternoon, making it a good choice either for catching up with friends over a casual lunch or settling in with a book and a cup of coffee. The drinks menu is varied enough to include some lighter, refreshing options like homemade lemonade or a Lillet Wildberry for those relaxing moments.

Overall, FRIEDAS is best for anyone looking for a no-fuss café experience with friendly service and reliable quality. It blends the feel of a neighborhood meeting point with enough culinary variety to suit different tastes—whether you’re after a quick coffee, a leisurely brunch, or something a little sweeter to round out the day.

Great coffee, tasty waffles and professional staff! No issues for non German speakers as staff is fluent in English.

A relatively new, but great place to have brunch/lunch or a drink. The owner and the staff are really nice and friendly, the prices are very reasonable. Love especially their home-made lemonade! I can recommend the place to everyone :)
