The former commercial building was built in 1908 and 1909 on behalf of the company Riquet & Co. and was one of the most modern and original new buildings in Leipzig at the time. The two copper-embossed elephant heads that flank the entrance door to the coffee house are the trademark of the Riquet company. Since the restoration, you can once again admire the listed interior of the corner shop in all its beauty.
Unfortunately, none of the more than thirty coffee houses in Leipzig exist anymore. Since 1996, Riquet has been trying to revive the Leipzig coffee house tradition. With the Leipziger Lerche, the Kaffee Riquet, the Elefantenkaffee and the Pharisäer, you can enjoy real specialties here.
