Mintar is described as a cozy, welcoming cafe with a warm vibe and a small, busy space that often feels intimate yet lively. The coffee program gets plenty of praise for variety, with cappuccino, latte, cortado and non-dairy options frequently highlighted, and some reviews noting thoughtful preparation and friendly service. The menu is celebrated for pancakes, especially cottage cheese pancakes, pistachio croissant, and egg and halloumi sandwiches, along with hearty breakfast options, smoothies and bowls; many mention the sandwiches and pancakes as standout, and some note careful halal prep with separate boards. While the atmosphere is repeatedly described as charming and the staff as helpful, some critiques point to occasional flaws such as burnt or bitter coffee, overly foamy or bubbly drinks, soggy or oily sides, and dishes that are good but not exceptional, plus seating is limited and the space can be noisy. Overall Mintar emerges as a beloved breakfast and coffee spot with a loyal following, praised for its cosy ambience, strong coffee and tasty pastries, and recommended for casual mornings and study sessions, while acknowledging room for consistency and comfort in seating and some menu items.
Great spot to stop for a coffee cup. The place itself is very small & not suitable for large groups. Their sandwiches are really good. I recommend trying the halloumi & avocado sandwich. Their coffee options are great too. The mocaccino is delicious. Also, the barista/owner? is really handsome 😳
Great service. Ordered a latte & yogurt parfait. The latte was amazing. Yogurt parfait was loaded with fresh fruit & homemade granola, delicious! So happy I decided to try something different this morning!

I loved this place. The cashier took her time explaining the menu to me & giving me recommendations. The sandwiches & coffees are good ! Definitely check this place out !
Cute cosy cafe with good coffee & tasty breakfast. We had two sous-marins (sub sandwich, one chicken & one veggie), iced latte, iced americano, almond croissant & Nutella horn. (We ordered more than two person portion.) Only high tables & bar style tables downstairs & big one table on the (half) upstairs, but we liked the vibe. Employees were friendly & nice as well! Would like to visit again.
Uns hat das Essen sehr gefallen. Schneller Service und alle sind super nett. Cappuccino war stark und er hat mir sehr gefallen. Kann ich jedem weiter empfehlen, für eine kleine Pause oder für ein leckeres Frühstück.
