Peter's German Ice Cream & Coffee Shop

I’ve always loved this place and was a regular long before the new owners took over. The cozy atmosphere of the cafe made for the perfect place to enjoy a coffee while working remotely or meeting with clients. It was my little gem, my hiding spot; a place that separated itself from the rest of downtown Ft. Myers. The new owners are equally as wonderful and kind as the previous, so this is why I am rating it 5-stars, they’ve been very good to me and never had a bad experience, however… I am sadden to say that I will no longer be coming back (at least not as a regular). I recently visited on Sept. 21 and planned to meet with a client for coffee only to find out the entire cafe had been remodeled into a bright and almost empty looking ice cream shop. All the charm and character just gone. It no longer feels warm and cozy and moody; just bright, cold, and empty. I am bummed that this cafe now looks no different then other ice cream shops downtown. I feel for the owners, because I am sure I am not the only regular that feels this way, and we will all silently morn the loss of this little gem. Regardless, to all the new-comers, you will still have a great experience here. I will still pop in to grab a coffee every now and then, however, I’ll be looking for a different spot to hangout and bring my clients to. Thank you to the current owners for being such great people and I wish you the best with the new place :)

Excellent coffee shop with euro style ice cream and baked goods! All natural ingredients and amazing flavor. All types of dairy alternatives for coffees. Super nice owners. Will definitely be back.

This is officially my new favorite place to get ice cream and coffee. All of the ice cream is so fresh and there are so many amazing and interesting flavors I have never seen in an other ice cream shops. Then to my favorite part the coffee, I am a huge coffee drinker and am always looking for the best places to get coffee and this one is by far one of the best places I have ever found. The environment there is just so happy and the owners are the nicest people I have ever met. Will definitely be going back!!

So good! Swedish sundae and German iced coffee, whipped cream is real, the fudge chocolate syrup is a hit! The owners are the sweetest people I’ve met and would love to tell you their story of how they opened and where their from! Great new business to support and I’m definitely coming back!!

Super friendly! Great coffee! Very helpful on the phone when I placed my To Go order! The squash soup is amazing. My panini on gluten free bread is amazing . And they threw in 2 free mini pudding cakes!

Very good!

This small little location off Hendry does Coffee right, but wait, they also have food. I've reached a new level of attendance at this place, both owners are always in, the cook, i now ask what they made special. So I tried the chicken salad wrap. Not something I would normally order, but everything I've ever eaten there has been "Clean", meaning home cooked without the grease. I was not disappointed. The flavor was something I can't replicate at home and when I go out to eat, I don't want to think "I can cook it better" and they didn't let me down. As for the coffee, unlike starbucks whose $20,000 espresso machines continuously heat the beans (means they're still cooking/roasting) leaving a "burnt" flavor, they grind fresh on the spot. I like high caffiene, so for me, it's a large black bullet every time. Again, I can't make the same at home.

Absolutely loved this place! Great spot for a late night snack run!

We love this place! We simply dream of it being open on a Sunday though, which is usually our breakfast day. However, when we do breakfast on a Saturday, we sometimes switch it up and go here. The coffee is so incredibly smooth. The atmosphere is quiet and quaint. It is nuzzled in a cute part of Downtown. The waffle was probably the best one I’ve had in a while. My husband got a breakfast sandwich which he liked, as well. It is worth checking out!

Cute little spot with great German treats. The owner was so friendly and explained all the snacks and ice creams. Highlighting non dairy options and freshly made!
