Right in the heart of Sollebrunn, close to the bus station and the roads to Trollhättan and Alingsås, lies Kafé Kaffekoppen.
This cozy and friendly café is all about homemade food, thoughtful baking, and warm customer care – with a touch of personal style in the decor. A great stop for lunch, fika, or a coffee break on the go.
