Michaelis Kaffeehaus & Restaurant "Di Sopra" in Chemnitz

The cakes were too dry and didn't taste good. They looked great. But the coffee was very tasty.

I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to everyone. Today I was there again with my sister-in-law, and the accessible restroom made us feel safe. The staff and food were amazing. See you next time. Best, Margitta Kiesewetter

Nice atmosphere and nice staff, but I didn't really like the ice cream sundae with mango, it tasted a bit unripe, but the tomato soup last time was delicious

I can fully recommend it. We've had coffee there several times, and all the pastries were always top-notch.

The restaurant was very nice inside. It was cold outside in spring. Otherwise, it was very nice. On the plus side, the staff had a good sense of humor and, of course, the delicious food. P.S.: It's best to ask for a blanket ;)

It is considered by the people of Chemnitz to be the best coffee. There is a wide selection of cakes and pies 🍰. There are also various types of ice cream. The place is very nice and cozy. There are also seats outside. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The toilets are clean and spacious.

Positive mentions include the good location of the coffee shop, the friendly service, the large selection of cakes and the live music. However, I was a bit disappointed, a small piece of cake, regardless of the type, was priced high, and then the taste was well - I would have expected more for the price, it lacked a certain oomph. Otherwise everything was very clean and chic.

with live piano music in the café, very recommendable

Food very good. Service depends on who the staff is there at the time.

The food tasted extremely good!

The team at Michaelis was very friendly and super accommodating. The atmosphere is really cozy and even has live piano accompaniment. Even on a Sunday morning, delicate sounds can be heard at breakfast. We can only recommend it. Oh yes and not only the rolls and the like were a poem, the cake was also a poem. We will definitely visit this great atmosphere again.

Good place for a breakfast. Very tasty and good selection, as you can see in the photo. Should be even more comfortable outside in the summer but sitting inside is also pleasant. Sabine also liked the coffee.

Very tasty and friendly service!

Everything was absolutely great. Great food, large portions, good value for money, creative menu, great vegetarian options and very friendly service. Gladly again. Went there for brunch, we'll probably come again in the evening, the menu whets our appetite.

It was very great ❤️ Thank you ☀️

We invited our children, who live in Thuringia, to Chemnitz. Chemnitz, the European Capital of Culture 2025, was a good occasion. The events we attended, including at Neumarkt, left a good impression on us. Great atmosphere and the people of Chemnitz proved to be good hosts. Unfortunately, this impression was spoiled when we sat down in the coffee house. We were assigned a table because we intended to eat something. After what felt like an eternity we were asked what we wanted. Eat ? None. The “normal kitchen,” whatever that is, closes at 5:30 p.m. We could try our luck on the upper floor. A service person told us that a table had to be cleared first. Understandable. After 10 minutes of waiting, the table still wasn't cleared. Our question was answered quite rudely by the service staff, who hadn't had time yet. Over half an hour of wasted time for us. Too bad. With all the respect we give to the service staff, they are service providers and are there for the guest, who ultimately brings them the money. We left the coffee house. We were compensated in another location that was within reach. We felt welcome as guests. So our children ultimately went home with a good impression of the cultural capital. Another little note for the coffee house. Dozens of receipts lying on the floor don't make a good impression. The well-intentioned musical accompaniment was marred by a "karaoke singer". Please leave that. Heinz E.

First class cafe. Very traditional. The cakes and small pastries are simply fantastic and therefore worth every euro. The small games corner makes the visit even more relaxing for families :)

Di Sopra on the 2nd floor is a culinary delight

for the first time in this institution, the hall is large, there is a second floor. there are not many people, at 12 o'clock in the afternoon 4-5 tables are occupied served by a waiter and an administrator. they speak English. ordered carbonara. the order was brought in 7 minutes. the portion is large, the pasta al dente, enough bacon. they asked me several times if I wanted to order something to drink. there is a small area for children, with toys and chairs, but very small.

Very cozy and lovingly furnished. And the cakes are to die for

Food very good, service so-so, sometimes good, sometimes too cold in the room

Nice café, but poor service, the waiter had assigned us a seat but then didn't come and took care of everything else, so I had to go up to him and ask if he should serve or if we should choose something at the counter ourselves. Then he came to our table, visibly annoyed, with his hand in his pocket and took our order. Cake and cake, coffee very tasty, €4.90 each, then he didn't bother with us again and had to approach him again to pay. It's a shame, as it's otherwise a very nice café. Good staff seems to be in short supply, as elsewhere.

The food is so recommended!!! You sit so comfortably and just have a nice time. Happy new year and good health and success in 2025

Went for Christmas dinner, everything was delicious and there was a great atmosphere. Our request (no meat) was responded to well👍

We had a rich, delicious breakfast.

What a successful evening, with delicious food in a very nice atmosphere. Our first Christmas day couldn't have been better. The portions were more than sufficient and very tasty.

Very good food with the right atmosphere. Service was nice and quick. The offer was in keeping with the festivities (Christmas).

We like being here when we are in Chemnitz. The food is delicious and inexpensive, the staff is always friendly and in a good mood. Especially on weekends, it is advisable to reserve a table for breakfast in person. The homemade cakes are a delight with coffee.

The breakfast and cake are always recommended here! The Viennese Melange coffee in particular is definitely a must.

Great for breakfast in downtown Chemnitz. Best to reserve.

We like to come to Michaelis for coffee. The cake tastes very tasty and the staff is super nice. There is also a small play area for children. That's great.

Tested breakfast on Sunday, only a la carte possible - no buffet. Service is good and the quality of the food is good too, but very expensive, you have to be aware of that. E.g. individual butter, small pre-packaged Nutella, rolls 1.50 euros each, freshly squeezed orange juice approx. 7 euros.

Very friendly service, the chef presents the dishes himself, answers questions in detail and also gives plenty of tips for choosing. The food itself was of the best quality and tasted delicious. Highly recommended.

Very quiet location for a relaxed breakfast

Five stars for a location in Chemnitz that one hundred percent deserves it. Several visits, several unusual requests and everything was always done as requested. Many thanks to the team around Tommy Seidel, who always react and act first-class. Thank you for this great service. My recommendation is 100 percent 👍👌

This year, like last year, we were again with our foreign construction site team celebrate in the restaurant on the 1st floor. As was the case last year, the food was very good and the service left nothing to be desired. Thanks to the kitchen and keep it up.

A wonderful evening in a relaxed atmosphere and fantastic food. Many thanks to Tommy for the great hospitality. We would definitely like to come back.

First of all I would like to praise the wonderful staff. As a boss, you can be really happy to find and keep such good people. The breakfast is really tasty and wholesome. Drinks top

It wasn't the first time we ate here and certainly not the last time. We were impressed by both the main courses and the delicious desserts and cakes. There is a spacious toilet on the ground floor for people with walking difficulties.

Great, everything perfect. Friendly service and delicious cakes 😊😋

Highlight in Chemnitz. Finally a creative menu. Top quality and taste, nice atmosphere and great service (special praise to Tommy and his team). Thank you for this lovely evening.

Great food in a pleasant environment.

Wir waren spontan nach einem Einkaufsbummel im Di Sopra Mittagessen und sind total überrascht und begeistert. Das im Obergeschoss vom Kaffeehaus Michaelis gelegene Restaurant hat ein tolles Ambiente mit echt leckerem Essen. Der Chefkoch persönlich hatte sich erkundigt, wie es schmeckt und auch unsere Bedienung war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Sehr zu empfehlen. Wir kommen gerne wieder 😉👌

Always happy at any time of day. Employees are always very friendly. Food delicious. You feel at home.

We had an ice cream sundae on Saturday at 2 p.m. It wasn't a big deal in this day and age where an ice cream sundae is an exception. For €10 you wouldn't expect frozen fruits to suck on because they had strawberry cups and fruit cups, the ice cream was ok but if you're in the market I think it's really weak when you're in front of the door

The first attempt was a bit bumpy but today we had breakfast with our children and it was very nice. Service and food were a 10/10. Mr. Seidel welcomed us warmly and joked with the children, everyone felt comfortable. Very cozy atmosphere, the breakfast was nicely presented and very tasty. It was a great start to the 1st Advent, many thanks to the entire Michaelis team.

Relaxation room was great! Gladly again (highly recommended)!!

We had a wonderful day with our family today for lunch at Michaelmas. The six children from two families had a lot of fun in the play area. Despite there being a lot of people, the food came quickly and everyone enjoyed it very much. Thanks to the great team.

Great breakfast, incredibly nice people, gladly again

Went to dinner at Di Sopra Chemnitz on November 22nd, 2024. As ALWAYS top quality and very friendly service. The highlight is the head chef, Mr. Wolf, who comes to the table and asks whether it was tasty. Where else can you find something like that? 👍🏻. Keep it up!

A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon with very friendly service, tasty coffee and excellent cake. We will definitely come back. Thank you very much 🙏👍👍

Delicious cakes, nice staff, but the room was a bit drafty and noisy.

Cozy place. Delicious sweets. Sometimes live music.

We did something crazy last night: St. Martin’s goose at the “Italian” in di Sopra. Excellent. We can only recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy the special food and experience in Chemnitz's gastronomy from time to time.

Very nice café, delicious cakes and ice cream! Nice and friendly service. Always happy 😋😍❤️

A very cozy coffee to linger, everything perfect. Keep it up.

The latte macchiato and the homemade cake taste very good. I've been to Michaelmas from time to time. The service is friendly, but sometimes you have to wait a while for them to come to you. At least later, when you've finished eating and drinking. But everything is still within limits.

Di Sopra offers cuisine of the highest standard and, in my opinion, is one of the best in Chemniz. My wife and I rounded off our wedding day with a great meal. A clear recommendation!

Expensive, but super good. I ordered the ice cream chocolate to take away and I have to say, the ice cream is super delicious, the cocoa too, cookies are just cookies and the cream with the sprinkles are also great. But it's best to take your own straw with you because math notebook (paper straw).

Our goal was to have a leisurely coffee. We now know the selection and I'm disappointed that there isn't even a bit of variety. My piece was ok, although older. The prices are hefty, although I can understand that. Since many people only drink coffee but stay for hours. The service was friendly and quick. All in all, I miss individuality here.

We were only here for a short time, but we liked it. Good and tasty ice cream is also recommended.

The food was tasty and the portions were OK, but had an uncomfortable spot in the window. Service wasn't that nice and we didn't feel welcome.

“Yesterday I was at the Michaelis coffee house for breakfast. Unfortunately my double espresso was already half cold, and the Michaelmas breakfast consisted of thawed rolls, one of which was even wet. That was disappointing, especially since I was expecting fresh rolls. In addition, a spoon for my boiled egg was missing, which I reported to the waitress, but without apology or understanding. The sausage was simple and not particularly high quality. It would be nice if attention was paid to fresh ingredients and better service here in the future.”

Good restaurant with Italian dishes

Was there for the first time. The selection of cakes and tarts is huge. It tasted very good and I found it cozy there.

Can only recommend the coffee house

Mega friendly staff who not only greet you as a regular guest. The food and drinks are delicious as is the location.

Coffee was cold and disgusting, ice cream had already melted at the table, juice spritzer was uncarbonated. And then €2.80(!) for a ball….

I was at the coffee house for breakfast. It was very tasty, but not crazy much for the price. So I ordered another piece of cake later. The selection of cakes in the counter was very good and my cake tasted really good. The service was nice, but sometimes it took quite a long time, even though not all the tables were occupied. You can sit inside and outside when the weather is nice. Generally really recommended

very good and, above all, tasty offering, even if the Sachertorte doesn't taste like the original, everything is very tasty, with friendly staff

Exceptionally good restaurant and excellent hospitality from Tommy! Had the lemon pasta with shrimp and it was heavenly! The gnochi with corn-fed chicken and the tuna pasta from my fellow diners were also fantastic, as were the starters in the form of truffle foam soup, carpacio and bruschetta. The wine list is extensive and the grappa is available in every price range. All in all, just five stars.

Great lunch special, very nice and attentive staff. Food was very good :)

We were guests at the Di Sopra restaurant on Saturday lunchtime with our visitor from Dresden. The welcome was very friendly and warm and the first impression was right. And it stayed that way. The waiters are very attentive and accommodating. The clear menu has something for every taste. All dishes were excellent. We had reserved and would recommend it as the restaurant was very busy. We were completely satisfied and would love to come back!

Far too expensive, a piece of cake €5.50 and if you want to take it with you only €3.50. I would understand the price if the portions were fair. But presented so carelessly. And if you want to pay by card, all you get is "really? I have to get the device separately." So we won't go here anymore.

I ate breakfast - the restaurant succeeds at making standards look and taste special. Friendly staff The coffee was not so good..

I went for coffee. A nice selection of cakes, cakes and smaller snacks. Since I couldn't decide between two cakes, I took both. I love tarts and cakes and I was thrilled, the two pieces of cake were delicious. Coffee was also coffee and not a thin broth. The waitress had probably just had a laugh. She was also very friendly and coffee and cake were on the table in no time. I will come again because I have to try all the cakes.

Nice restaurant, great service, no long waiting, the prices are in the upper segment

Been there twice for breakfast. Very friendly and competent service.

Ordered coffee with oat milk and got almond milk. There are only 3 flavors of ice cream because something is broken. Service a bit impatient. Oh well. The ice cream is coming soon... Oh, and the yellow wall color doesn't match the light brownish color of the ceiling at all. Man, you can see that!!!

The review concerns the restaurant "Di Sopra" on the upper floor. We had dinner on a Wednesday and were lucky that it wasn't busy. So we were able to enjoy advice from the chef himself. I suspect this is not always the case, but only when workload permits. The food was on the table just as quickly. The "Maiale di parma ripieno with taleggio e prosciutto" was excellent. The service was also very good, but decreased slightly after the main course. Here you would wish to be given the menu again without being asked so that you could choose a dessert if necessary.

Selection of cakes and drinks are super delicious. Staff is also very good.

We had breakfast at Michaelmas. Really highly recommended👍🏻

We were guests at the Di Sopra restaurant on a Saturday evening. The welcome was very friendly and the first impression was right. And it stayed that way. The clear menu has something for every taste, vegetarians will also find something here. There is also a board with several dishes that are presented personally and with explanations. Great! As a starter we had Vitello Tonnato, which was very juicy and tasty. For the main course we chose the porcini mushroom gnocchi with corn-fed chicken and the truffle arancini with green asparagus from the table. Both dishes were a surprise in terms of taste, very well seasoned and delicious 😊. We had reserved and would recommend it as the restaurant was very busy. We were completely satisfied and would love to come back!

A very classy and tasteful café with delicious delicacies. If you want to have a good time and enjoy being pampered with upscale luxury, Michaelis is the right place for you. Although the prices are not the lowest, they are still within an acceptable range as the cakes look very fresh and authentic and, above all, taste good. The ambience is very stylish, quiet, romantic and has a 1920s touch. Anyone who comes here is welcomed (as is appropriate) by a waiter and taken to a suitable place. The toilets are very clean and that always speaks for the quality of a restaurant

Piano music from the pianist, delicious cake and good coffee specialties. The staff attentive and friendly. Gladly again.

... lots of praise in advance, tested it myself today. Highly Recommended! Very nice atmosphere, great food, presented by the chef himself, not cheap, but that's a good thing. Enjoy!

Great breakfast, and also fast service, very nice staff

We had reserved in advance, it was busy for Saturday evening, but not completely full. The table was discreetly but beautifully set and the staff was very friendly. The only thing our waitress wasn't very familiar with was the food. The wine arrived at a good temperature, the stuffed gnocchi and Duroc cheeks were a poem, as was the dessert, and the chef also came over for a chat. Prices ok overall, definitely justified for the quality and quantity. You don't go out hungry, but you're visibly happy. It was a very nice evening and I can only recommend it.

The stay in this supposedly beautiful coffee house or restaurant was less a culinary experience than an odyssey of horror. Right from the start, the “restaurant manager” turned out to be a prime example of excessive demands and indifference. His sullen gaze seemed to be directed at the guests, whom he seemed to view as a necessary evil. The drama began when we as a group of young people visited the restaurant with reservations and some dared not to order immediately. The overwhelmed restaurant manager/waiter, who obviously misunderstood his role, exerted enormous pressure and literally forced the students to order something. He then served with an impressive mix of disinterest and haste. The condescending attitude of the supposed restaurant manager towards the guests rounded off the disaster. The sad climax occurred when some students expressed their legitimate dissatisfaction in a Google review. The restaurant manager, accompanied by a mysterious figure, stormed in and aggressively demanded the review be deleted, threatening "consequences." A poor attempt to suppress the guests' freedom of expression that far exceeded the level of unprofessionalism. The situation became much more frightening when the commentator did not identify himself and the “restaurant manager” offered in a very aggressive tone to call someone who could come and clarify this, quote: “Differently”. To complete the farce, the overwhelmed restaurant manager also complained about 6 guests who supposedly didn't show up, even though only 4 other place settings were available. This grotesque misunderstanding not only highlighted the lack of organization of the restaurant, but also the blatant incompetence of the "restaurant manager". The culinary side of the debacle topped it all off. The overpriced food, of dubious quality and careless preparation, reflected the entire experience. The dishes advertised on the menu turn out to be a loveless constellation of all sorts of cheapest ingredients under their shockingly high price tag. The general pricing is absolutely absurd A visit to this establishment is like a horror trip through excessive demands, tasteless food and threatening scenes. This coffee house is a prime example of terrible service and tastelessness, garnished with a pinch of bizarre incompetence.

Hochwertige italienische Speisen, ein sehr guter Koch und ein tolles Ambiente. Für einen besonderen Abend geeignet. Es ist sehr gemütlich und ansprechend. Der Service ist top.

Nice, long-established café where you can also eat.

Unreserved recommendation. The service gets 5*+ Very rich breakfast. Above all, what is extremely important... It tastes great!

Last night we were invited to the Rossini menu by the Roller jeweler as a thank you and were overwhelmed. The welcome was very friendly and the chef also came to the table and explained everything and coordinated everything with us. He was very nice and normal, which we thought was great. The two young waitresses and waiters also tried very hard to ensure that we didn't lack anything without seeming intrusive👍. The whole menu, with additional salad, was very good. The beef fillet was cooked to perfection, perfect. We didn't have to add any seasoning to any of the dishes. The desert was also very tasty. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely evening.

Very nicely furnished restaurant with living room furnishings, i.e. with a sofa and armchairs at the table. Food was brought to the table personally by the chef and the daily specials were written in style on a blackboard. Greetings to the chef and also to the restaurant manager who served me. :)

Ice cream tasted very good... MANGO yogurt ice cream sundae

Very good and friendly service who knew everything about every dish in detail. Very tasty food. We recommend

Nice atmosphere, competent, friendly service and a rich, delicious selection of cakes. Child-friendly with a small play area.

Good cuisine and really convincing service!

Very pleasant dining room, attentive service and excellent food! We recommend!
