Herr Max

The finest patissier in the Schanzenviertel probably has the tastiest and prettiest cakes in Hamburg.

Herr Max not only has perhaps the best cakes in Hamburg, but also the most beautiful: the window shows off extraordinary cake creations for every occasion.

But you don't come here for the monsters made from butter cream and marzipan but the delicious raspberry tarts or cheesecake. Located in the middle of Schanze, the bright shop is always busy and offers a welcome breather from the hustle and bustle with a good cup of coffee. The cakes can be taken away of course, just like the tasty brownies and biscuits.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Eimsbüttel & Eppendorf

Here, one can find magnificent old building façades, local and exquisite restaurants as well as fancy boutiques and owner-operated shops. While Eppendorf is rather fancy, one can feel the hanseatic serenity in Eimsbüttel. Both districts offer much green and water and are hence with good reason very popular neighbourhoods in Hamburg.
