- On larger markets, consumers should expect around €5 per cup before the refundable deposit is added.
- Dortmund plans to hold its price at €3.50 again this year, according to local organizers and Ruhr Nachrichten.
- Nürnberg is reported at roughly €4.50 per cup, and smaller towns generally remain in the €3 to €4 range.
- A YouGov survey found about 52% of Germans are willing to pay up to €5, while roughly 15% cap their spend at €3, and it remains unclear if last year’s ultra‑cheap Aldi market will return.
