No booking needed — the table is yours when you arrive
We keep things old fashioned: no reservation system, no deposit, no 90-minute limit. Walk in, order at the counter, and settle in.

Last orders fifteen minutes before closing. We close for one week after Christmas — the date goes up on the door and in the window every December.
Coming with a group?
Eight people or more — a walking tour, a choir rehearsal, a birthday — give us a call the day before so we can bake enough and push a few tables together.
Prefer writing? Email hallo@fordandtea.de and we usually reply the same day.
