Café himmlisch

A breakfast café, bistro and gift shop in the heart of Kempen, serving breakfast, cakes and soft-serve ice cream.

In the heart of Kempen, Café himmlisch invites guests to slow down: a breakfast café with a bistro kitchen, homemade jams and a small selection of decorative and gift items. Owner Tanja Laufmanns runs the café together with her team.

What's on Offer

Breakfast comes in several set combinations – from the classic "himmlisch" with rolls, homemade jam, cheese, salami and fruit salad, to a vegetarian and a vegan option (with hummus, organic spreads and raw vegetables, for example), all the way to the "Genießerfrühstück für Zwei" for two with salmon, scrambled egg and tomato-mozzarella. Children can choose the "Happy Kids" breakfast or the "Räuberteller". There are also egg dishes in various styles and a breakfast bowl with yoghurt, spelt crunch, fruit and nuts.

From 11:30 the kitchen switches to the lunch menu, featuring hearty open sandwiches, sausages with potato salad, baked camembert, apple and bacon pancakes, a pizza-style flatbread snack and salad plates. Drinks include coffee made from high-quality beans, a range of teas and, on request, Oatly oat drink for vegan guests. The homemade jams, such as strawberry or forest berry, are also available from the shop shelf.

Atmosphere & Concept

Café himmlisch sees itself as a place to take your time and be pampered. Alongside its food and drink, the café sells selected decorative and gift items – the "Schöne Dinge" that were originally used only as furnishings and became available for purchase at guests' request. The café first opened on 2 May 2012 in Tönisvorst and has been based in Kempen since August 2017.

Opening Hours & Reservations

The café is open Wednesday to Saturday from 9:30 to 16:30. Reservations can only be made by phone on 02152 8096160 and only for breakfast times during opening hours – email requests are not accepted. Card payment is possible from 10 euros; 200- and 500-euro notes as well as copper coins are not accepted.
