Etappe Roasters sits comfortably in Offenbach’s evolving harbor area, making it a natural stop for those exploring the waterfront or taking a break from cycling or running nearby. This café blends the buzz of a modern coffee roaster with a laid-back neighborhood vibe, drawing in locals who appreciate both quality coffee and a casual meeting spot.

The coffee here stands out, with a clear focus on careful preparation and rich flavors. Whether it’s a meticulously brewed pour over or a refreshing espresso tonic enjoyed outside, each cup reflects a thoughtful coffee philosophy without feeling overly formal. The menu offers a well-rounded selection including crowd favorites like Flat White, Cortado, and iced Matcha Latte, alongside a few unexpected treats such as vegan pastries and savory bites like Käsecroissant and Franzbrötchen that cater well to all-day visitors.

Inside, the space feels bright and spacious, though summer heat can build up without air conditioning. For those who want to soak up some sun, the outside seating provides a pleasant vantage point to watch activity along the harbor, making it ideal on sunny afternoons. Regulars tend to be cyclists, runners, and locals who settle in for a casual catch-up or a moment of quiet over top-notch coffee.

Etappe Roasters works well as a functional pit stop during a workout or simply as a relaxed weekend spot to enjoy pastries and a well-crafted drink. The friendly staff add to the approachable atmosphere, creating a welcoming environment that encourages lingering — whether inside during the cooler months or outside when the weather invites it.

The shop basically changed my whole opinion about the city:⁠-⁠) Also the only place around with pour over coffee. Friendly staff and great location for watching people work out. Only caveat is no AC and it's getting hot inside.

Best coffee shop around! Hands down! Best mocha latte we ever had in Europe even though it was not in the menu. Sitting down in the sun outside while drinking espresso tonic is the best feeling. Vegan pastries were great additions to their specialty coffees.

One of my most favorite places in the neighborhood and often visited by cyclists and runners. Very good coffee and iced matcha with tonic (tried that for the first time ever there). The Etappe is a great place to hang around all year long - inside and outside.

Great "trendy" coffee shop in newly built harbor area in Offenbach. Excellent coffee and nice pastries. Spacious interior and friendly service. Great pit stop while doing a bike trip ("etappe") along the Main river.

Probably the best coffee place I’ve ever been to. You can really feel their philosophy of good coffee in every cup carefully prepared, rich in flavor, and beautifully presented. Alongside the coffee, they serve fresh, small dishes that perfectly complement the drinks. There’s a nice selection ranging from sweet to savory, plus refreshing cold beverages and even high-quality matcha.

Loved the vibe at this place – super chill and relaxed atmosphere. The staff are really friendly and go out of their way to help you out. I tried the cortado, espresso, and affogato – all were spot on. They also have a great selection of mini cakes that go perfectly with coffee. The location is right by the river, which makes it an ideal spot to unwind and just enjoy the moment.

It’s been about 6 years since I was in Offenbach, a lot of new cafes and restaurants now. I visited Etappe for the first a few weeks ago, on a Monday morning. I walked along the river from Sheraton. A cute location along the river. As I entered, one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands was playing, “Stand By Me” by Oasis. I knew this was gonna be the spot. Had a great flat white and lemon bread. Very great, friendly customer service. I sat inside due to cool rainy morning but outside seating is available. I will definitely return.

A Cafe made for young students and professionals. Riverside location, with a sunny terrace, modern Nordic design and probably the best coffee in Offenbach. The baristas know exactly how to properly serve it and it is good quality. A very popular place so you will always have difficulty finding a spot and you will for sure queue for your order because it is self service. Another minus as it is obvious from picture is their brownie portion size.
