Beautiful place. Lovely setting and decent coffee and cake. Really enjoyed going somewhere that felt off the beaten track. Great to wander around Old Oslo and admire the buildings.

Nice and cozy place. The line for ordering the food is very long, especially during brunch/lunchtime, but the food didn’t take much time to arrive. The food was okay, but some dishes felt under-seasoned. The baked goodies were good, however personally speaking I’m not the biggest fan of sourdough in sweet things. Overall the prices were a bit high, but things were all homemade and it was nice to see the bakers working and making breads just in front of us.

Loved the atmosphere! Welcoming staff and the products were top quality. Had a landbrød which all the family loved, lemon cake, a round pastry made with cookie, bounty & chocolate and a double espresso. So happy Highly recommend!

Fast service: 5/5 Friendly service: 5/5 Tasty food: 5/5 Value for money: 5/5 Perfect place for cosy breakfast or lunch. Excellent if you have a foreign guest visiting and they want to understand the Norwegian concept of hygge. Scent of freshly baked goods welcomes you as you enter this oasis of cosiness. The service is friendly and fast despite big waves of guests. Prices are reasonable considering the quality of the produce. The only tiny potential for improvement would be to only play mellow music that fits the atmosphere. Top tip: During the weekend, the place gets really busy so you may have to wait for a table.
