Frudisiac is more than just a café – it’s a Nordic-inspired experience brought to life in the heart of Bucharest. Housed in a barn-shaped building designed by Not a Number Architects, this bakery-café stands out through its minimalist elegance: natural wood, soft light pouring through large windows, and polished microcement floors and counters – all rooted in Scandinavian aesthetics.
What makes Frudisiac special
- Nordic design and atmosphere – High ceilings, airy interiors, and functional yet warm furniture create a relaxed, almost cabin-like feeling.
- Clean, health-focused menu – A hybrid between specialty coffee shop, juice bar, and all-day brunch spot. You'll find Stockholm’s Drop Coffee, cold-pressed juices, chia and quinoa bowls, avocado toast, poached eggs, and pancakes.
- All-day brunch – Ideal for late breakfasts or light, nourishing meals. In warm weather, the pet-friendly courtyard offers a quiet, shaded escape.
- Relaxed and friendly service – The staff is attentive without being intrusive, and the laid-back rhythm adds to the overall sense of urban serenity.
Atmosphere & space
The interior strikes a delicate balance between minimalism and warmth. Wood-paneled walls and communal tables make it versatile – perfect for brunch with friends or solo coffee-and-laptop sessions. Its black exterior catches the eye, while the inside feels bright and calm. The open-air courtyard extends the space and brings a touch of freedom, especially on sunny days.
