Cozy food :)

All so delicious! Cozy place and lovely staff 💗
We can feel the love they have for what they do :)

Edit: The space is bigger now, but it's still cozy and lovely!

True Focaccia Delicious Pastry

Lovely and cozy place in the centre of Utrecht.
We had a special focaccia with aubergine,capers and sauce and the Peach one. both super delicious. Also we had the Danish pastry, also amazing.
We definitely recommend this place, it might be good to visit early, it is so good that it goes sold out!

Amazing gem in Utrecht!

We visited Life's a Peach whilst on holiday in the Netherlands and it ended up being one of our top food spots from the whole trip. We had a couple of foccacia to share which were really tasty and full of flavour. The matcha looked amazing and tasted just as good and the sweet pastries were also lovely!

Pros: Nice vibe, Great portions, Friendly staff

Nice place

I came shortly before they closed so the selection wasn't that big anymore. I had a piece that I would rather describe as a quiche than as a Focaccia, it was tasty, but not enough for a whole lunch.

Pros: Friendly service

Heaven on earth 😇

I would move to this city to live near this place!

It was pretty crowded on a sunday around noon (they warned us about that on their website though) but after 5 minutes waiting we got ourselves a seat.

Ordered the pistachio foccacia and croissant and a pastel de nata. Everything was just so good. The pistachio cream in the croissant, so delicious. The 'cheese' on the foccacia, just everything. They warm it up before they serve it to you.

The other pastries looked delicious as well...

What a great vegan find 🤩

The service was very friendly. The place is cosy but small.

Heerlijke smaken

Ik heb de focaccia pistacchio genomen. Deze was met pistache pesto. Dit was een unieke smaak, maar wel lekker. Ik zou hier zeker nog een keer naartoe gaan.🥰

Try their focaccias, farinatas and pastel de nata

They offer the best focaccias I’ve tried and offer daily specials on top of their regulars. It’s better to heat them because they’re a lot better then.
I especially like the ones with artichoke, sweet potato, mushrooms, pumpkin, mozzarella, eggplant and peach. The Autunno, N’duja, Ciccia, Pere, Tre formaggi, Caponata and Olive are nice as well. They also have great regular and filled farinatas, made of chickpea flour.

A few of their pastries are great as well: pastel de nata, vanilla layer pie, carrot cake (the regular one, not the gluten-free version!), danishes, swirls/buns, pain au chocolat, fig pie and apricot beignet.
Decent are their croissants, cheesecake (more sticky than creamy), cinnamon donut, apricot/berry pie and banoffee pie.
Their regular pastries are usually a lot tastier and more moist than their gluten-free ones.

Delicious pastel de nata!

We tried the peach and goats cheese focaccia, olive and caper focaccia, and a pastel de nata. The focaccias were quite good. The pastel de nata was pricey for its small size, but excellent: buttery and flaky pastry with a delicious and thick custard cream. They had two types of danish pastries too but they were burnt on top...

Don‘t get the 5-star-reviews…

We had 3 slices, which were all cold and oily (even tough I was asked and cleary answered that we want them hot), Taste was not more than okay. Also had the homemade pistaccio croissant, which was also okay, but the cream was not evenly distributed at all. All in all pretty disappointing.

No words - just go 😍😍

(Ok, HappyCow forces me to add words)

We shared 4 focaccias here and tried the pistachio 🥐. Everything was soo delicious. The croissant was out of this world. I want to live in this place! Go go go already!

Delicious focaccias and pastries!

Life is a Peach offers delicious focaccias and sweet pastries such as pastel de nata, croissants, and cakes, all 100% vegan. The focaccia dough is soft on the inside with a nice crispy crust. The Danish and almond croissants are tasty and not too sweet. The coffee also tastes great. It’s nice that there is now more seating available, but it fills up quickly. So, it’s smart to make a reservation or just take something to go. Definitely a place worth visiting!

Pros: Delicious focaccias and pastries, Good coffee, Friendly staff

Cons: Maybe a bit pricey

Decadent, indulgent and delicious. Go here if you’re in Utrecht - but get there before 13:00! Everyone goes so quickly! The pastel de natas disappear inside an hour of opening 😱

Pros: Creative flavours, Lovely staff, Alt decor

Great little café

Good selection of breads, pizza, and drinks including homemade lemonade. Seems to sell out of most items in the early afternoon, so stop by early if you can.

Pros: Homemade lemonade, Bakery items

SO good!

I had the focaccia cipolla and a pastel de nata and it was all very delicious! They were insanely busy today and it was chaotic around so it took a while but they were great about it. I will have to make it back here.

Pros: Delicious food, Good price

Satisfying, Sustainable, and Super Tasty!


I had the pleasure of trying the banana bread and the onion focaccia, and both were fantastic! The banana bread was moist, naturally sweet, and had the perfect balance of flavor—great with a cup of coffee. The onion focaccia was soft yet slightly crispy on the edges. Whether you're craving something sweet or savory, these two treats are a must-try!

Delicious pastries - lovely vibe

This is a lovely place - perfect for sitting in for a coffee and pastry or for takeaway.
We had a pastel de nata, pistachio croissant, danish pastry (jam and cream) and coffees. All were delicious, flaky pastry, perfect breakfast!

Pros: Great options, Friendly staff

very tasty focacceria

We opted for a selection of focacceria. We found them all very tasty (nice and fluffy). The cheese alternatives were delicious and had a good texture. For sweets, we ordered the pistachio croissant, pastel de nata and a cinnamon bun. All 3 were very tasty.

Closed Sunday 16 March

So disappointed to find this place closed when we visited today. It's supposed to be open on Sunday according to Google maps & the sign on their door but alas it wasn't. No explanation on their website about a temporary closure either. Not sure what's going on. Maybe call ahead to confirm that they are open.

Just wonderful

Amazing foccacias, warm, crispy and fluffy. The cornetto and pastel de nata were also just perfect. I also loved the flavor combinations (like cardamom and chocolate combo)

The bombolone, however, was not the best I ever had.

Pros: Perfect foccacias!, Excellent flavors

A must visit in Utrecht

Such a hidden gem tucked away down a side street. They have incredible foccacia and pastries, often rotating their specials so you always get to try something new. Friendly staff, great atmosphere- a must visit!
