Awesome variety of homemade cakes and pastries, friendly staff, best location and nice atmosphere. Prices are also pretty fair. We tried the zaffron cake, Oreo cheesecake and Bastani (zaffron flavored ice cream), all delicious. Highly recommend

La Pause is a lovely, family-owned café and a true hidden gem. I had both the iced matcha and matcha latte, good quality matcha, smooth and flavorful. The Dubai cookie was also super tasty! They have a great selection of cakes and other pastries some with ethnic flavours from the middle east, and the owners are incredibly friendly.

Such a cozy and well-decorated café in the heart of Malmö city! This café makes great matcha drinks (will try coffee soon and update), has delicious cookies and cheesecakes of many flavors! There are also available sandwiches and sallads as meal options. They have very friendly and fast service. Definitely recommend it for a pause during a walk/shopping around the city!

A gorgeous cafe in a prime location with delicious homemade treats. We had a chocolate mousse, a traditional Swedish cake with berries and the Dubai Chocolate Brownie. Each one was sensational. Staff were warm and friendly too. Highly recommend.
