About

Oyya is an ice cream shop known for its variety of vegan ice cream flavors including hazelnut, speculoos, and mango yogurt, many of which are distinct from typical sorbets. The venue serves freshly heated waffles that have a crispy outside and soft inside, with prices around €2.50-€5.00 for scoops and waffle combos. While the staff are friendly and English-speaking, some customers note that only part of the menu is vegan despite signage suggesting otherwise.
