About

Ma Pause focuses on vegan cakes, with flavors such as mugwort, matcha-fig, pumpkin, and Earl Grey, alongside coffee and tea. The vintage-filled interior and small porch make it a relaxed café stop, though cake slices are often described as small and pricey; drinks can be made with plant milk, so specify non-dairy when ordering.
