    Götterspeise

    If the Aztecs thought of chocolate as the elixir of the gods, then this shop-cum-café must be heaven. Cocoa addicts satisfy their cravings with rave-worthy French chocolate cake, thick hot drinking chocolate, handmade ganache and even chocolate-flavoured 'body paint' for those wishing to double their sins.

    Café Cord

    A good stop for breakfast (served to 16:00), a light lunch or coffee, Cord also makes for an ideal first pit stop for a long night ahead on the club circuit. In summer, the super-tasty global fare tastes best on the romantic, twinkle-lit courtyard.

    Nil

    A construct in wood and marble, this chill café-bar is open till 03:00 and a good place to crash after the party has stopped elsewhere. If you need a reality check, a plate of its kick-ass goulash soup should do the trick.

    Café Lucas

    This two-storey café draws the designer set for convincing cocktails, snacks and a few choice larger meals; outdoors, wooden tables overlook the river.

    Open from around noon until midnight or later.

    Treibhaus

    Well off the path of most visitors, this bustling cafe is a Nuremberg institution. It serves breakfast till evening and caffeinated comfort to students and weary-legged shoppers.

    Black Bean

    If you think the only decent 'brew' Bavarians made is beer, train your Java radar to this regional retort to Starbucks. The organic coffee gets tops marks and so do the muffins.

    Café Max

    Artists and students congregate at this atmospheric café over giant breakfasts, while out the back, the sky-lit bar, Atrium, mixes some of the city's best cocktails.

    Zappeforster

    This relaxed hangout is known for its creamy cappuccino, perky ice teas and warm home-made waffles served beneath groovy mountain wallpaper or on the sunny terrace.

    Stereo Deluxe

    First a home-grown record label for modern urban sound, Deluxe is now also a hip café with a red strobe-lit club in the basement. Very cool.

    Café Glockenspiel

    Not exactly an insider tip but still much beloved for eye-level views of the Neues Rathaus glockenspiel, ideally from the rooftop terrace.

    Baader Café

    A literary think-and-drink place with a high celebrity quotient and possibly the best Sunday brunch in town.
