Bohemian Kids Café

Bohemian Kids opened on Universitätsstraße in the middle of Leipzig, close enough to the university that its outdoor tables fill with students most of the week. Michael and Barbora, a Czech couple who left law school to run a cafe instead, founded the place around a Dalla Corte Icon machine and beans from Prague roaster Candycane Coffee, giving the cup a distinctly Czech accent despite the German address. Luka Schumacher, who worked alongside them for six years, took over ownership in September 2024 after the couple moved to Bern, Switzerland to open a new place of their own.

The cake case still blends Czech and Swedish traditions into banana bread, cheesecake and a rotating cabinet of other bakes, while the food menu leans vegan without making a show of it. The cafe takes no reservations and stays open every day of the week, mornings through early evening, with a walk in only policy that keeps the small tiled room turning over quickly.
