This family-run cafe and bakery combo is a cozy spot for casual eats. Couches and a double-sided fireplace encourage relaxed conversation. Look for French- and Croatian-inspired pastries alongside freshly squeezed juices and both gluten-free and vegan bakery items. For lunch, try hand-stretched strudel with veggies and low-fat ricotta cheese; you won't find it anywhere else. Other lunch options include grilled sandwiches, salads and a daily soup. It's all made fresh on-site using fair trade and local produce when possible. Wifi and unique coffees attract singles, while board games and kid-friendly cuisine welcome families.
