In most big cities, young people and old people live next to each other, but they have nothing in common. There is no place where the generations meet or come together. And that’s not good for either side because the young can benefit from the seniors’ life experiences and the seniors can feel appreciated and engaged, rather than feeling lonely.
David Haller and Julia Krenmayr who run Vollpension, wanted to bring the generations together in a living room type of setting where grandmas and grandpas, called Omas and Opas in German, can interact with young people.
They realized they both missed a good homemade cake baked by someone’s grandmother to the utmost perfection. They also realized they missed the grandmas who baked those cakes. And so, the idea of a granny’s café was born.
“We wanted to make this a generational café that feels like your grandmother’s living room”
