"Das Café Nello ist ein absolutes Juwel in Karlsruhe! Von der ersten Sekunde an fühlt man sich hier einfach wohl. Die Atmosphäre ist super charmant und das Personal unglaublich freundlich und aufmerksam. Aber das eigentliche Highlight sind die Croissants – ohne Übertreibung, die besten der ganzen Stadt! Knusprig, buttrig und einfach perfekt. Genauso herausragend ist der Kaffee, der jede Tasse zu einem Genuss macht. Ein Muss für jeden, der guten Kaffee, leckere Kleinigkeiten und eine tolle Stimmung sucht. Absolut empfehlenswert!"
