Last weekend I went to Frankfurt to visit my younger brother Jan. While Frankfurt is usually known for its skyscrapers, bankers and quite flourishing drug scene, I was not aware that there is also a very relaxed and charming side to the city.
Jan took me to a tiny cafe called Cafe Kante, which I immediately fell in love with. From the outside it looks just like another small boutique - so much in fact, that you might just pass by it. ...Which would be a shame because inside you will find an incredibly cozy atmosphere with great coffee and simple yet tasty food.
The best part about this place, however, is that it makes you feel like you just stepped into the 1920's. The crowd is composed of people who look like they just started writing a bestseller or like to philosophize about the world on a lazy Sunday morning. To make the journey into the past complete, the owners decorated the cashier's area with vintage coffee packages, an old scale and sweets that are stored in antique glass containers.

In a nutshell: Cafe Kante is just the type of charming and shabby cafe that I love and that is definitely worth a visit on your next trip to Frankfurt.
