A really great café that we wouldn't have stopped at without this tip. The "Villa Flora" café belongs to the plant shop/nursery, so that's where the entrance is. The opening hours are somewhat limited, so it's worth checking the website again. https://www.billbacks.se You can sit inside and outside among the flowers.
