The small, cozy café El Rojito in Hamburg Ottensen has been offering the finest coffee and other specialties for 10 years.

Café and roastery

El Rojito isn't simply a café – every fair-trade bean that finally ends up in the coffee mug is roasted at El Rojito itself. There is a wide range of coffee specialities, both espresso-based and freshly filtered. In addition, delicious cakes from the organic confectioner Eichel and strudels are on offer, and from Tuesdays to Saturdays they serve croissants and other delicious pastries from the pâtisserie. By the way, most of the delicious assortment is organic and vegan. There are a few seats in the sun in front of the door, but there is more space in the quiet café garden in the backyard.

Fair trade coffee from Hamburg

El Rojito's roasts can not only be enjoyed in the Hamburg café, but also bought here and online. The coffee is sourced directly from cooperatives according to the principles of fair trade, without middlemen or speculators making a buck. Like the baked specialities in the café, most of El Rojito's coffees come from controlled organic cultivation.

Deichdiele

In Wilhelmsburg life is pulsating!

While many have been talking about this new neighborhood for a while now, in the last few month many hip bars and coffee places were actually popping up all over the place. And also the good old bars and cafés are becoming more and more attractive to all urban dwellers. 

One of those older places is the Deichdiele where the visitor already feels the relaxed atmosphere when stepping through the door. On two floors you’ll get drinks for honest prices – and that in the middle of Wilhelmsburg. No matter if good coffee in the morning or a cold drink in the evening – here the creative mind is always welcome. 

Additionally they serve delicious food of course!

In a cozy atmosphere on old couches and obviously real wooden floorboards every visitor can enjoy the best food.
With fresh baked Brötchen comes a great selection of toppings and homemade bread cream, waffles, muesli, and yoghurt that leave no wishes behind. Every Sunday they offer a vital breakfast buffet that guarantees for a good start in the day. Highlight? The daily menu!

But it not only is a place for a fresh start in the day.

But also to enjoy the end of the day with a beer, cocktail or longdrink. On mild summer days half the neighborhood is hanging out infront of the doors of Deichdiele. On those days it becomes their second home.And the best thing is, everyone feels welcome immediately!
