China Café
Possibly the only place in town where reservations are essential. During the day, it’s all about coffee and cheesecake (strawberry, blueberry or lemon). By night, there’s a full menu of local specialities to enjoy on the scenic roof terrace, including beer fish and pork-stuffed river snails.

Karst Café
A cosy and casual hole-in-the-wall café and hangout for rock-climbers, this chatty snack-spot serves a surprisingly appetising take on New York pizza, including their speciality combo of bacon, egg and blue cheese.
