Local Hangouts
Local hangout suggestions from past Pepperdine students:
Emma Cafe for pizza and coffee or hot chocolate.
Shaftheute Cafe which is literally right under the classrooms and they have good cheesecake.
Walter's on Neugasse (street name) for cheap and DELICIOUS pasta.
Penny Markt is the cheapest grocery store and is on the corner by Walter's, but it's not the closest walk to the house.
Gelato Go is just a few buildings down from the classrooms and is the BEST gelato place. However, all gelato places (except some obscure one somewhere) close during the winter.
Big Pommes is right across from the classrooms and is where you get fries and Doener. Very unhealthy but they make bank off of Pepperdine students.
Club 1900 is good for dancing.
Philosophenweg (aka Philosopher's Way) is a hike across the river that can take a really long time (2 hours or more), depending on how far you want to go. It's beautiful though and many have done it.
