"One of my absolutely favorite meeting places in St. Gallen. It's a great option to meet friends and drink and/or eat. People here are very friendly and it's also a great place for LGBT people. The food is amazing and drinks are reasonably priced. I especially like this place for its vibe and the amazing people I get to meet there."

"A place that welcomes you where you'll feel quickly at home. The concept is cool, the prices fair, the bartenders lovely and the small concerts and book readings warm my heart. I'd always stop by for a drink or a round of tablefussball. The vegan cakes are always yummie"

"Ein sehr guter Ort, um vegetarisch und vegan zu essen. Käse-Knöpfli mit Apfelmus ein Muss! Auch sonst super Menus, gutes Essen und grossartiger Service. Genossenschaftlich geführt, selbstverwaltet und stabile linke politische Haltung. Dazu regelmässig Konzerte. Auf ein nächstes Mal!"

"Dieses exquisite Lokal ist eine wahre Zufluchtsoase:) das Personal ausgesprochen freundlich und zuvorkommend! Wir bekamen sogar die Möglichkeit mit einer Mitarbeitenden Person Spiele zu spielen und sogar eine Zigarette war angesagt. Alles wirklich TOP!! Einziger Kritikpunkt: Kein Honig vorhanden um meine warme Milch und meinwn Abend zu versüssen:((("

"Mal was ganz Anderes, interessantes und freundliches Publikum mit internationalem Hintergrund. Es wird auf Englisch diskutiert an einem Tisch (ca. Manchester), Brettspiele gespielt, Architekturkonzepte besprochen. Servierpersonal sehr freundlich und sehr bemüht, Milchkaffee mit schönem Bild, edler Barrista Style, den ich hier eigentlich nicht erwartet hätte. Es hat auch einen abgeschirmten Garten, very nice! Gelungene Erfahrung im rot-grün-alternativen Treffpunkt. Zu empfehlen"

"Nice Café in the center of the city, the political left wing bar is a nice place to go. They have food they have wine, they have beer but don't quite innovate enough in my opinion but this is also a charm. A place to go and read a newspaper, eat some food, drink some wine and have a good conversation I like this place."

"I had a great experience at Genossenschaft Schwarzer Engel Restaurant & Hotel Bar in St. Gallen, Switzerland. The staff were friendly and always smiling, and the service was excellent. The place feels warm and welcoming. Their hot chocolate is the best in town — rich, creamy, and full of flavor. A must-visit spot in St. Gallen!"
