1983 Frühstück beim Fröstl war vor der Arbeit immer ein Highlight,im Jahr 2025 hat sich nichts verändert ,mit knapp 80ig noch selbst im Geschäft zu stehen und wunderbare Mehlspeisen anzubieten,diese auch mit Liebe einzupacken,Hut ab,können sich viele eine Scheibe davon abschneiden,was wäre St.Pölten ohne Fröstl?

Top Preis leistungs Verhältnis, cafehaus nach altwiener stil

Herr Fröstl, ich glaub er ist schon über 80, macht noch alles selbst. Gebäck, Mehlspeisen und nachmittags auch noch das Service. Das hat soviel Charme, dass man es mit einem Besuch unbedingt unterstützen sollte.

Delicious cakes and yummy hot chocolate with whiped cream :-)

Sehr traditionelles Café Leider ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen

An einem Samstag u.a. eine köstliche Bananenschnitte gekauft. Mit echter Buttercreme und nicht irgendeiner billigen und schnellen Industrieschlagcreme, wie sie leider immer öfter wo verwendet wird.... Auch die Schokotorte, Topfentorte, Kornspitz und Vinschgerl waren gut.

Sehr gemütliches Eck. Ich hoffe, dass ich nichts falsches geschrieben habe, da mir Google Maps die Meinungsäusserungen samt 29 Fotos bereits zwei mal gecancelt hat. Ich bin auf keinen Fall ein Roboter !!! Die Technik ist ein Hund.

Ein richtiges Kleinod in St. Pölten! Super, dass es so ein Lokal noch gibt. Guter Kaffee und freundliches Service. Montag bis Freitag Mittagsmenü, tolles Gebäck und Torten!
