"Sehr netter junger Mann, der uns Kaffee und Kuchen serviert hat. Ich hatte einen Apfelkuchen. Der noch leicht warm war. Ich habe noch nie so einen leckeren Kuchen gegessen. Der nette junge Mann, der auch der Besitzer des Cafés ist, teilte mir auf meine Frage mit, das er den Kuchen gebacken hat. Von mir eine eins mit Sternchen. Hab ich ihm auch gesagt. Man kann dort schön draußen sitzen, aber auch drinnen ist es schön."

"Wir waren wandern in der Eifel und haben uns sehr gefreut nach einer langen Tour bei Café Luchs einzukehren. Das Team hat sich mit viel Mühen um uns gekümmert. Der Kaffee und selbstgemachte Kuchen war wirklich klasse. Die warmen Speisen sahen auch sehr gut aus. Wir kommen wieder :)."

"Ein Ort zum Entspannen und Genießen. Mitten im Grünen an einem kleinen Bach gelegen empfängt das Café mit natürlichem, stilvollen Ambiente. Der selbstgebackene Kuchen war lecker. Die kühlen u warmen Getränke eine willkommene Erfrischung. Der Wirt und seine Mitarbeiterin empfangen freundlich und zugewandt. Erfüllen gerne Wünsche und beantworten auch Fragen zur Umgebung und zum anliegenden malerischen Campingplatz. Eine echte Oase."

"Haben eine super-leckere Blaubeertarte gegessen. Diese war frisch und noch leicht warm als sie serviert wurde. Der Service war ebenfalls zuvorkommend und sehr nett. Preise sind o.k. Der Sitzplatz auf der Terrasse neben dem Bach ist auch sehr schön. Wir werden hier noch öfter zum Kaffee und Kuchen vorbei kommen. Es lohnt sich."
