"Want to thank this cafe for the amazing breakfast we had yesterday. Special shoutout to our waitress Michelle - she was so sweet, friendly, and brought such positive energy. Even when there were some rude Italians at a nearby table on the terrace shouting things like "Hey you, espresso!" she stayed perfectly polite and professional. Great coffee served in a nice big cup. Had a really good breakfast - we ordered a three-egg omelet with cheese, tomatoes and onions. It was delicious and so fluffy. We sat on the summer terrace and didn't have to wait long at all - food came out quickly. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Rapperswil!"
