Cafe Botanica

Kraków


As the name suggests, the decor emphasises the horticultural. Breakfasts here are a popular choice. You can opt for a classic English breakfast, European breakfast, omelette or quiche. Pop in later in the day for a panini, burger or pasta, or simply a coffee and yummy dessert. Ample seating stretches way into the back, with trees and plants aplenty.
