Background: I have been at Suuapinga for more than 40 times and here is my humble opinion/review:
Coffee: I always take Cortado (I have never tried their Matcha and drip Coffee). The cortado is quite good to my taste (I like it more on the mild side)
Pastry: Zimtschnecke (Cinnamon Roll) is quite satisfying to me. I like it both soft and hard (depending on the batch and the time of the day I guess)
Service: The people who work there are mostly hip and have a specifc vibe that I like but I totally understand how it gives a "too cool for school" effect on some clients (a good balance between character and adopting a professional service culture would be my advice)
Design and atmosphere: Both are great. Minimalist is the new black at the end 😶
Prices: This is for me is the truly negative aspect. Within less than 6 months they raised the prices drastically. I believe that we as people, regardless of how much we can afford) should have a stand against the crazy price ranges/raises that most specialty coffee place in Munich (MvM, Morso, etc.).

And at these price points, it’s not unreasonable to expect somewhere to sit—or at the very least, not feel like you have to balance on one leg while drinking.
Bottom line: A good idea, undone by poor execution,...
Read moreNew addition to Munich’s Specialty coffee scene. Selection of coffee drinks is limited and a bit boring. You’d expect more creativity when a new coffee shop opens in 2021.
Also the only plant-based choice is oatmilk.
Food wise they offer a vegan cinnamon roll. Sometimes on weekends there are also some other pieces of pâtisserie, but these are not properly stored therefore melted and sad-looking.
This is another coffeeshop in the city with no bathroom which is a bit uncivilised.
Also amount of flies circulating above counter is off-putting.
