Café Maldaner
First of all - sorry for the reflections in the window - I'm still trying to figure out how to avoid them...
This is one of the oldest (if not THE oldest) "Kaffeehaus" in Wiesbaden, founded 1859. I just love their sense of decoration - a bit old style but stylish and very "gemütlich" (cozy/comfortable). I think you can get that feeling from their window decoration.

Gemutlich alright :-) that's interesting, is it still open for public? Do people have to dress up like that to enter? ;-) what about the waiters/waitresses...do they dress up like the epoch then? Have you been there yourself? How's the tea? or is it becoming a very touristic destination?
love that window decor. I agree with you, it looks homey,cozy.About the reflections, still trying to figure how to avoid it too.
Süss die omas beim Kafeeklatsch...sieht echt total gemütlich aus!! The old ladies are sure having a good time!
Try a polarizing filter to get rid of window reflections. I used to love reflections: they added a transparant layer to the photograph and gave a context to the window display. (In other words, if you can't beat them, join them! Chuckle.)
I am happy to be corrected by others. Cheers - Brian.
I've found another blog that has a photo of the inside of the cafe:

It's still open for public and people of all ages go there. They serve very good coffee and tea and also have a good selection of cakes...
Thanks for your comments!
And thanks briang for the tip about the reflections!! I'll try it out.
