Raw Food House



Why not take a different fika from time to time? A more healthy one as well. Pastries that will keep your blood pressure in balance, since they are sweetened with agave syrup, dries fruits or honey. Apart from being truly delicious they contain lots of vitamins and minerals. What a great excuse for having a fika often! Raw Food House bakes their cakes and cheesecakes themselves. And they do not need to put up signs with gluten free - since everything is baked without flour. The most popular cake is the French Chocolate Cake, but there are other things as Nutella pie, Lemon balls or Mint kisses.

At Raw Food House they have unusual but healthy breakfasts. Try the chia porridge flavored with blueberry and cardamon or fermented cashew yoghurt with oat granola. With that you may drink birch sap. But there are normal drinks too. My favorite is Mocca Java with almond milk, raw cacao and chai. Last time I had stayed in the sauna for a long time, I was recommended a Sparkling Green; freshly squeezed juice with lots of chlorophyll. It will keep you going.

Söderberg & Sara


Malmö is so lucky - the best bakery in Ystad has decided to open a branch here, next to S:t Knuts Torg. After five years Tilde and Per felt they could produce and bake more in their gigant stone oven. And the natural choice was of course to expand to Malmö. They already run the café in Ystad but also Kafferosteriet in Löderup, where they roast their own coffee but you can also get wonderful leaven dough pizza with fanciful toppings.

The bread is baked in Ystad and driven to Malmö in the morning. And it is chewing in the right leaven bread way. It is obvious that they are careful about ingredients; organic, nor preservatives and real butter etcetera. Inspiration for the pastries come from all over the world, like Portuguese Pastel de nata, Italian Siena cake and French croissants. No wonder White Guide has put Söderberg & Sara on the Ten Top list of cafés in Sweden.

Kafé Agnez





Kafé Agnez is not only Malmö's first vegan café with only organic food. This café also has a more important purpose, because it is a safe haven for the young people who live in the home next door. Here they may work and grow and get appreciation while baking cinnamon buns or making coffee.

This is the perfect place on a windy day, because the backyard is always still and calm. You would not believe that you are right in the middle of the city center. Here one can sit forever - even if it starts to rain, because there are small roofs to protect you. It is cozy inside as well. Kafé Agnez is situated in a house from the 19th century and downstairs, there are several tables in the beautiful furnished cellar.


This is a vegan café, but you can get cows milk in your coffee or chai latte. Most of the cakes are vegan, some even gluten free but there are exceptions. Like the Mud cake, it is made with lots of dark chocolate and real butter. Kafé Agnez has been nominated Café of the Year since 2011 and they get a stream of tourists who have heard about them before hand.

Bar Italia


At Bar Italia they make their own ice cream - from a Sicilian recipe. That means with sugar, milk and cream, but without the eggs. There are lots of flavors to choose from, like the Nougat KitKat that I tasted. Delicious. During the summer the queue is looong, but do not despair - it moves pretty fast.

In addition to the wonderful ice cream, Bar Italia has a spectacular view. On a clear day you can see the whole Ribersborg beach, the Öresund bridge and the silhouette of Copenhagen. If you come here on a sunny day you may get the feeling that all of Malmö's 300 000 inhabitants have come here for a stroll along the boardwalk. Some summer evening there are also people dancing tango outside, close to the water. Bar Italia is a perfect place to sit and enjoy life in Västra Hamnen.
