Breakfast and French charm in Leipzig city centre
A croissant in the morning, French specialties for lunch, and a cozy coffee break in between: At Café Central, your break gets a touch of France.
Located at Reichsstraße 2, just a few steps from Grimmaische Straße, the café offers a varied breakfast selection daily until noon—ranging from a French breakfast with a croissant and café au lait to hearty breakfast platters, pancakes, and vegan porridge. There’s also a breakfast for two on the menu, perfect for mornings that can stretch a little longer.
Starting at noon, the menu features Breton buckwheat galettes, crispy tarte flambée, rotating soups, fresh salads, and pasta. Vegetarian and vegan dishes, as well as gluten-free galettes, offer even more options.
To finish off the meal or simply as a treat, cakes, tarts, and sweet desserts are sure to tempt you. Whether you’re meeting friends, enjoying breakfast for two, or taking a break from shopping: right in the heart of Leipzig, Café Central offers a chance to leave everyday life behind for a moment.
