Delicious pastries - Edit
Variety of bakery items and drinks, we got the hazelnut brownie and it was really nice and fudgy! Lemon blueberry cheesecake was light and tasty, and the drinks were good too! I loved the little outdoor seating area, very cosy!

Impressed by their chocolate cake! - Edit
The chocolate cake is not only beautifully decorated but also a top choice to order. The cake is soft and perfectly baked (not dry, not wet), and has a distinct chocolate taste. You can taste that high quality cocoa was used! In the middle you will find some sort of a brownie layer, but a great brownie layer, the good one that sticks to your palate!
Read moreI can only recommend this chocolate cake, it's rare that I can eat such a good one!

Lovely place and birthday cakes - Edit
This is such a lovely and cozy coffee to get some delicious pastries and drinks! The pastry selection is really wide and the lady is so kind and lovely! I got a latte with oat milk and she put on the side a little piece of brownie which tasted so good! A friend got a big cinnamon rolls with an orange cream which was really good!
Read moreLittle update: they also make vegan birthday cakes! I ordered one chocolate and berries cake and everyone loved it! The decoration on the outside was also so beautiful! Next time, I’d maybe suggest adding more berries inside😄

Plant Dragon is a must to go, you feel instantly comfortable with the space received by Patricia (owner) that always gives you big smile, very thoughtfully decorated from the menu to the plants and dishes used. You can see all the kitchen where all the amazing bakings are being prepared by Patricia with love and dedication. There is always creamy brownies, cakes, cookies and cinnamon rolls -oh the cinnamon rolls are one of the bests me and my friend had in our lives! Is a must for sure!-, some days savory dishes and the best coffee and matcha you can find around the area, also options of healthy shakes and seasonal food.

Great pastries in a lovely setting - Edit
The place is right in the centre but a bit hidden not far from the university library. There are lots of plants and there even is a small terrace at the back. The owner is very friendly and the atmosphere relaxed. I enjoyed my hot chocolate (oat milk, but soy and coconut are also available) and fruit tart very much.
