Café Husaren - Home of Hagabullen

If you find yourself wandering through the charming Haga district in Gothenburg, stopping by Café Husaren is practically mandatory. Known far and wide for its giant cinnamon rolls, this café is as much a local institution as it is a tourist favorite. The moment you approach, you can smell the warm spice of cinnamon and sugar wafting out the door — it’s one of those scents that immediately pulls you in. The café itself has an old-world charm with cozy corners, vintage décor, and bustling energy. It’s always busy, but that’s part of the experience. Locals and visitors alike crowd inside to get a taste of their famous pastries, often taking a seat at the small tables that spill out onto the cobblestone street. We ordered their iconic cinnamon roll, which is genuinely massive — easily shareable between two or three people. The roll is perfectly baked, fluffy yet dense in the best way, with just the right amount of sticky sweetness. Pairing it with a cup of coffee makes for the perfect fika stop. It’s a true slice of Swedish café culture: lingering over pastries, watching the street life unfold, and savoring something made with care. The staff was friendly despite the rush, and everything felt relaxed and genuine. Café Husaren isn’t just about the food — it’s about the atmosphere, the history, and the simple pleasure of slowing down for a moment. Definitely worth the stop, even if just for the cinnamon roll alone.

Nice place with the biggest cinnamon buns I have ever seen... And eaten. They have other yummy pastries and offer an apple warmer drink that goes well with the cinnamon bun.

A must - visit when you’re in Gothenburg! Even though this cafe is in almost every tourist guide for Gothenburg it definitely didn’t disappoint. I had the biggest cinnamon bun, aka Hagabullen, which was full of flavor and worth every bite. The staff is welcoming and the whole place has that authentic Gothenburg feel. I highly recommend it!

We had a giant cinnamon bun, shrimp sandwich (rakrora) and tea. I liked them. The price seemed reasonable. You need to ask the cashier if you need to know the price (it's not mentioned near the food). The staff is friendly. It was quite crowded when I went there.

🍰☕️ Café Husaren – A Sweet Experience Worth Every Bite! Café Husaren was absolutely worth the visit! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with a cozy atmosphere, the warm scent of fresh pastries, and an inviting display that made our eyes sparkle 😍🍞✨ Though we skipped the famous giant cinnamon bun (Hagabullen) this time, we certainly weren’t disappointed! We indulged in the most delicious rhubarb and strawberry pie 🥧🍓, a heavenly Nutella brownie 🍫, a fragrant Amaretto treat 🍥, and a beautifully soft pastry whose name escapes me — but trust me, it was divine 😋💖 (see photo for proof!) 🪑 There’s plenty of comfy indoor seating, while outdoor seating is a bit wobbly but still charming under the Gothenburg sky 🌤️. 🚻 There’s a toilet available, though sadly not wheelchair accessible. ✨ Honestly, we had nothing to complain about — just a lovely little café with tons of character, the kind of place you want to linger and savor every bite. Highly recommended for a cozy break filled with the best pastries in town! Enjoy, and treat yourself! 🎉🍩💛

Lovely café with a wide selection of cakes and pastries. We tried their famous cinnamon bun, which was huge and tasted delicious, definitely good value for money. There were so many other options to choose from too. If I had been there for a few more days, I would have loved to try more of their treats

Big Cinnamon Rolls! What could be better? Also a lot of variety if you want to eat something else, sweet or savory

The juice was good, so was the chocolate ball. Their traditional Kanelbullar was a bit not tasteful but fluffy. Also there were bees everywhere even inside which was annoying(not the cafes fault tho)
