Elegance and deliciousness ... this place has it all!…read more All the baked goods and salads looked so super yummy, I could not resist to get inside, even though I had had breakfast just a few hours ago. I simply had to get an almond pastry and three macarons with passionfruit, cherry and orange flavour and all of them tasted so marvelous. So sad I came across Oma on the day of my departure shortly before heading further north.

I only give it 3/5 stars because although their food is good and service fine, I don't enjoy such overcrowded cafes. People come to have business meetings and to do remote work but being so crowded I've witnessed a loud gossip nightmare behind a remote worker so I doubt it's really the place to be productive. They sell their own bread and pastries - good stuff. They also serve lunch every day which includes the dish (soup or salad), bread, water and a cup of coffee or tea.

The belgian chocolate cake I had was one of the best I've ever had! As a tea lover, I was delighted to have the tea brought in a little teapot with loose tealeaves and a filter so I could easily brew the tea just as strong and tasty as I like. And in the case that someone in the company craves for something savoury instead of cakes, the selection also includes sandwiches, salads, and soup.
