Grand Cafe - Rostock

We called in here fore coffee. Perfect position to take in the view - probably the best part of the town to sit and rest.Service was very good - so too was the coffee. No complaints. Good bathrooms (otherwise difficult to locate in town) and on the way through the pastry selection looked fantastic. I would be happy to go back and have a meal.

Hvad der ellers skulle blive en rigtig dejlig aften endte efter dette besøg som en tvivlsom affære.. Vi besluttede os for at bestille både antipasti og en pastaret.. Det skal jeg også love for vi fik.Vi fik vores mad efter ca 1/2 time hvilket er i den lidt længe ende.. Da vi fik måden forstod vi hvorfor. Vi fik både forret og hovedret samtidig. Da vi sagde det til tjeneren opførte hun sig som et lille barn og brokkede sig over at vi havde bestilt de to retter samtidig.. man skulle ellers tro at tjeneren på en italiensk restaurant vidste st antipasti betyder forret. Og at forret betyder før hovedretten.Vi måtte sidde med 4 tallerkner på et lille bord og spise hovedretten først så den ikke blev kold. Virkelig dårlig oplevelse.Maden var udover servicen heller ikke ret god. Der var tarm i mine rejer.Da tjeneren spurgte ind til maden var hun fuldstændig ligeglad med kritikken.. Hun kunne ligeså godt ha ladet være at spørge.Alt i alt ikke anbefalelsesværdigt

After a nice day in Rostock we thought we found a nice restaurant but the disappointment of the bad service destroyed the first impression of the place. Even though it was relatively few guests in the restaurant it took long time to get the waiters attention and get something to drink. It took even longer time to get the waiters attention to order some food. The food itself was good, but the ignorance from the personnel have we never experienced anywhere else.So our recommendation is to go to the many other restaurants close by and enjoy the excellent service and food that can be found there.

I was surprised by the number of poor reviews for this place. Admittedly we only had coffee and ice-cream but they were fine, the service was good and the location on the main square is one of the best in Rostock.

Delicious Italian food. We ordered pizza and pasta and were happy about both. The waitress was very nice and still smiling late in the evening.
