May be the best meal we had in Bergen. Stopped in for a quick lunch before a Fjord boat tour and was incredibly surprised. The Whipped feta sandwich (pickled bell pepper and dried olives) was over the top wonderful - it is presented open face like a bruschetta and was incredible. The sardine plate came with a very gourmet sardine (in oil) with an aioli, salt and very soft local bread. Flavor was incredible and a great deal (the can of sardines presented is sold in stores for 120 and the plate was not much more than that - great deal. My wife wants to go back tomorrow and order the exact same thing - that never happens on vacation. Service was excellent - the most friendly people we met the entire trip.
Even though it is always crowded and booked, this is one of those places where we are ready to sit outside even in cold weather:-) plus they have a heater outside so it is nice. Gorgeous looking brunch sandwiches to die for. Definitely our favourite brunch place. Also, very good proper coffee. I know Norwegians like filter coffee but here they serve the real one. On top of it all, pleasent staff, home made bread, nice cakes, and I just love those beautiful designed cups. They think of the whole brand here, and the customer.
My mum and I thought the food was delicious: she had the half-and-half open sandwich - half crab, and half goats cheese with lingonberries; and I had the chicken and pesto, orzo(we think?) salad. Yum! The waiting staff were friendly - and thank you especially to the kind young person who was sweet and took our photos The nice couple sitting at the next table also offered to take photos for us. I think most of the diners were local. We’re from the UK
