Cafe 190° - Regensburg

Since I was here, I know what really good coffee is .simple great!

Rehorik has tradition, Rehorik is cult in Regensburg. Maybe similar to Trześniewski in Vienna. And does Rehorik not sound a bit like the vastness of the K-monarchy? Perhaps the ancestors came from Linz over the Danube? I tried to read it and would like to quote: “Grandfather Hugo founded a shop for delicacies and colonial goods with his own coffee roastery in the magnificent old town of Karlovy Vary. After the war, Hugo rebuilt the company in 1948 with his family in Regensburg.” In the meantime, the fourth generation is already at the start – according to the motto: from Hugo to Heiko. And what they offer in Regensburg will inspire every delightful person: especially coffee, wine and spirits, with barista seminars, wine tastings, gin and whisky meetings, a separate coffee roasting shop, a café, a cheese shop with 130 different cheeses, a wine cellar.... You'll excuse me if I forget something else... Since I am only a short guest in Regensburg, a visit to the main house in Brixener Hof must be enough. The seven-colour historical building dates from the Bishops of Brixen. Nowadays you can slip between the hearty coffee fragrances of the roast and the spicy flavors of the cheese business. I'm getting dizzy, as I'm understaffed and undercaffed in the early afternoon. The café “190 degree” seems to be the right place for strengthening (at this temperature the first crack begins when roasting beans). The café is a long, fully grafted hose with whitewashed walls, dark wood furniture, pressing bottle and gaaaaaaancy for many people, with great heat and a odour-protected sky. Intuitively I dropped onto a free chair and hope there is no self-service here. A juvenile operation sounds for me, mainly to point out that this table is reserved. So it has to go fast. I therefore taste food (there would be cakes, salads, sandwich sourdough bread, some breakfast variations, various pasta, cheese and sausage specialties), but no coffee. Oh, woe, here's cleverly sound coffee expert again. As soon as they were shot by the earth, the clientele also changed. If you only drink a cappuccino from the fully automatic or an espresso from the sieve carrier machine, you can now lift off your cup filter coffee or the trendy Chemex carafe and oscillate over cultivation areas and aromas. To discuss in time, I simply order the coffee of the day in a oats (for 2.80 euros). It comes quite fast, the milk at the same time only a few minutes later ordered after urgent memory, the bill at the same time only when the next guest sits almost on my lap. The coffee is mild and bright, I tap on a Brazilian La Passeio Estate, but hahaha, it can also be a completely different... In the café there is a huge crowd, guests mourn more on their seats than they sow, the audience is mixed colorfully, it is crossed and crossed over each other, there are bags, coats, shopping everywhere. On the way to the toilets in the back of the restaurant, I will take care of the frying facility that is behind high-rise windows. Very exciting, in the middle of it! The toilets are amazingly good in shots and so big that after the collision of the place you simply exhale. I do not know how the operation in these states can preserve its calm, nerve strength and natural friendliness. Attention! The café “190 degree” opened seven days a week. My recommendation: Reserve a place urgently and/or arrive early. In the directly adjacent shop (opened to the former chapel) you can buy fine chocolate and coffee specialities – wonderful gifts by the way. A parking facility is located right in front of the shop – on the walkway.

Coffee culture is lived here.
