A gem in the city

What a lovely place, offering delicious options on the menu for those with a sweet tooth as well as for those who prefer savory dishes. Due to the bustling atmosphere, you might need to be a bit more patient, but the friendly service makes it absolutely worth it.

Nice atmosphere, okay food

The place is situated in a little craft village, the inside decor is really warm and cosy. Savoury pancake was nice but a bit bland on flavour and missing something. Perhaps an addition of tofu or a sauce would improve it. The chocolate torte was very nice.

Can't quite recommend

Waited more than 45 mins for two savoury pankaces which they explained with "we had to clean the pan". OK.

But then the pancake tasted somewhat musty. 😶

Pancake's filling was very close to the salad next to it.

If you enjoy many onions this is the salad for you.

Staff is skilled in waiting tables without looking at customers who try to get in contact with them. Waving is a must.

Due to Happycow regulations, exceptionally good restaurants who do not only serve vegan food can only get 4*. To be fair to them, I can give here only 2*.

A great coffee stop

This place is situated in a lovely center of craft village. The village itself has an amazing look and presence. The cottage does not shy away from that.
The environment inside and outside is just lovely, and all the artwork you see on the wall is for sale. That was a cute and nice detail for me.
Did not stay outside because it was raining and a bit cold that day, but there is a medium size table area.

The staff was nice and the service was fast, although being only one more customer might have helped on that.
I have a cappuccino and a crepe, both well prepared and quite tasty. The portion of the crepe was generous and is a good midday snack.

Do recommend if you are in the area.

Pros: Good taste in food, Friendly staff, Outside seating

Lovely cafe + vegan crepes

Tasty and filling vegan crepes. Really cute cafe with outdoor and indoor sitting. It's quite popular so it might full sometimes but it's worth checking out. Kitchen closes at 4pm!
There is a vegan savoury crepe, a sweet crepe, plant-based milk and sometimes a couple vegan cakes too.
Inside the Craft Village.

Pros: Savoury vegan crepe

Lovely cottage, few vegan options

The Cottage is beautiful and their craft exposition is lovely. They don't have many vegan options though.

I'd recommend their vegan sweet crepes, however I also tried the savory one and it wasn't very nice - it was dry and missed seasoning. The mushrooms in it were half cooked too.
