Counter right at the entrance and all pastries lined up. Both times staff were quite friendly and quick. Besides the bun, we also got the school bread which was also quite good with lots of shredded coconut and icing and a creamy center. Our macchiato coffee was small but also quite strong. Caffeine helped peel us up for the rest of our wandering around Oslo.

The quiche were excellent and the filtered (what we call drip in the States) coffee was among the best I've had in Norway on our visit - smooth! Cinnamon roll was good but not the best I've had. In closing, the service was friendly and attentive. Excellent free wifi and plenty of seating.

Unlike that soulless TV chef-trap, Håndverksbakeriet (Handworks Bakery) bakes up craft breads and pastries and serves them up with wicked coffee and drinks. The staff there is also a big seller. Every time that I've been there they're just amazingly pleasant, nice people. They get to practice their English, as I, sadly, do not speak Norwegian, which I must fix one of these days. I get great food, great service, and a nice place to sit and get out of the hubbub of the summer holiday crowds strolling by the harbor. Better than the chain places around it, by far.

All of their bread is made with sourdough - even the sweet buns! They let their doughs mature for a very long time (a full 40 hours for the breads), which makes for the tastiest and chewiest bread I have ever tried. Using sourdough in sweet baking is also something I have never come across before, but it makes the buns extremely moist. On my first visit, I tried the white sourdough and egg salad sandwich, which was freshly made and delicious, the sourdough bread with pumpkin seeds, the cardamom sweet bun, the blackcurrant sweet bun, the almond and chocolate sweet bun, a lemon poppy seed muffin and the cream cheese cookies (no, not all in one sitting - I had to take som of it home ;). The muffin itself would have been worth the visit, as it was the fluffiest and yet most succulently flavourful muffin I have tasted! I also had a coffee and a carrot, orange and ginger juice, which was vibrant and fresh. In addition, the staff at Handwerk are extremely friendly, and the manager, Pontus, was more than willing to share his insight about sourdough baking and offered me tips on how to improve my sourdough. I will most definitely be stopping by Handwerk whenever I am in the area, as this is my new favourite bakery!
