5 Senses Coffee

5 Senses Coffee in Freiburg-Herdern combines artisanal specialty coffee with a modern café atmosphere. The owner-operated roastery sources directly traded beans—some of which are organic—that are roasted on-site in Freiburg. Information about the origin of the beans can be found in the shop next to each type of bean. In addition to excellent coffee, visitors can enjoy a varied selection of breakfast items, light lunch dishes, and homemade cakes and waffles. Many of the dishes feature organically grown ingredients and are prepared with great care. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available. The café also impresses with its stylish interior: natural materials, warm lighting, and a spacious glass front create a modern, almost minimalist atmosphere.

Coffee enthusiasts can also delve deeper into the world of specialty coffee at 5 Senses Coffee. The café’s in-house coffee school regularly hosts barista courses and workshops that cover the basics of espresso preparation, proper grind settings and grinder adjustment, as well as techniques for milk frothing and latte art. The courses are designed for both beginners and ambitious home baristas and offer exciting insights into the craft and philosophy of the Freiburg-based coffee roastery.
