Academie der Schönsten Künste

Stuttgart


A breakfast institution since the 1970s, the Academy has evolved into a darling French-style bistro where dishes revolve around market-fresh fare but also include such tried-and-true classics as schnitzel with pan-fried potatoes and Flammekuche (Alsatian pizza). Sit inside among bright canvases or in the charismatic courtyard.
