Cute! - Edit
Super cute and lively place with a wide selection of vibrant looking snacks. Loved the Pastel de Nata and Veggie Farinata. Definitely remembering this place when I'm looking for a - also reasonably priced - snack in Utrecht!

Lovely! - Edit
Super cute and small. Lovely decorated and beautiful and cute interior.
Read moreTheir Pastel de Nata are the best I've had so far! Absolutely Delicious! Dirty Chai was okay but not my favourite, good amount though! Not tiny like you sometimes get.
Pistachio cornet was good too, though I was expecting a pistachio croissant, which is entirely different and thus a bit of a shock, because I couldn't read with my caffeine deficient head...😅
Apparently a cornet is a much more oil heavy, and a bit savoury, dough. Good taste though! The pistachio filling was however very centred and once at the centre it could not be eaten without the pistachio filling dripping all over... Which is probably part of the experience😉
Their Peach Latte was good as well, surprising taste!
Took a pair of Pastel de Nata and a cardamom bun home with me. They held good the whole day out in the 27 celcius sun and were still very tasty the day after!
Will return to try their other delicious goods and their Focaccia!
Pros: Delicious Pastel de Nata and other baked goods, Good drinks, lovely interior and cute place overal, Kind and friendly staff. Fully vegan!

Delicious focaccia - Edit
Don't come here often enough, but they make delicious focaccia's. Also some of their pastries are very good. I am not a fan of the pistachio croissant, but I guess it's jus a matter of taste. It's not that they are not well made, they are just not for me. I once had the best cheesecake of my life here, absolutely wonderful. Also the coffee is very good. 5/5!
Read moreDuring the summer they also have milkshakes and they are super tasty. I especially liked the vanilla one, the banana milkshake was also good. They are super creamy and not overly sweet. I think they also have a coconut one sometimes which I would love to try.

Best focaccias and pastei de nata - Edit
They have the best focaccias in NL. I especially like the ones with mozzarella, eggplant, artichoke, olives, pesto and peach. The Autunno, N’duja, Pere, Fungi, Tre formaggi, Caponata are quite nice as well.
Read moreA few of their sweets are great as well: pastel de nata, carrot cake, swirls (cardamon, pumpkin spice and lemon/lavender), pain au chocolat, fig pie, apricot beignet and cheesecake (although more sticky than creamy/smooth).
Their donut, banana cake and apricot/berry pie are quite nice as well. I also quite liked the danishes, but the dough (filo) was too hard and chewy for a danish.
Some of their sweets tend to taste a bit bland, a.o. croissants (although great crispyness), sfogliatelle (made of filo dough), carrotanana, banana bread, mango sticky rice cake, fruit crumble and bombolone. The Bosche bombolone had a nice dough and whipped cream filling, but the chocolate was too bitter for me.
In the summer, they serve nice mylkshakes with Roberto’s gelato vanilla ice-cream and fresh fruit.
In the colder seasons, they have a great pumpkin spice latte. Other lattes are usually good as well (although I didn’t like peach latte that much).

Portuguese pastry to die for - Edit
We only visited briefly with the Vegan Food Tour (highly recommend) and didn't even have time to sit down, but we tasted the pastel de Nata and it was to die for. Wish I could stop by every day here. Can't wait to go back and sit down and enjoy their food and drinks.

Heerlijk gebak - Edit
Wat een geweldig tentje. Hun gebak is vers en heel erg smaakvol. Geen overdreven suikersmaak maar echt goeie kwaliteit. Ik wil hier alles proeven. Ik had ook een hartig dingetje (ben de naam even kwijt) wat ook echt super lekker was.

Heerlijke vegan croissant met pistachevulling gegeten en een pastel de nata. Het is een klein zaakje en het was redelijk druk, maar we konden aan het raam zitten. Leuk zaakje voor een ontbijtje.

Authentic Italian focaccia - Edit
Very cute locale clearly run by Italians who know their cuisine. The flavours they create while using vegan ingredients are astounding. The coffee could be a touch richer but it is hard to find real Italian coffee abroad. I am only taking the fifth star off due to this point
