Coffee is pretty simple from a machine (nothing fancy you'd get from a coffeeshop except a latte or…read morecappuccino), but it was still good. The pastries were amazing and fresh. There are so many to choose from it is hard to decide.

Backstube is a take away breakfast place that has pastries, sandwiches, and coffee. The coffee is…read moredrip coffee or machine latte/ mocha etc. I had the raspberry pastry and it tasted like the American toaster strudel. This place is good if you're looking for a quick and affordable bite to eat, but will probably disappoint if you're looking for high quality pastries and great coffee.

Awesome Kannelbolle. Americans will be very much tempted to call this a cinnamon bun but it's not…read morethe same - this doesn't come with the frosting so it won't be as sweet. Coffee is good. They offer all types of espresso drinks. Their hot chocolates are much better than what you would get in American cafés. That fresh house-made strawberry jams are consistently good no matter which location you visit. Lots of space to sit in and enjoy your breakfast. Free wifi. Nobody rushes you out. Bathroom available.

Very good quality of pizza close to what you get in Italy. Was there with Italian friends and since…read morethey were happy with it it's the real thing. I like the concept that they have decided the menu to white and red sauce pizza. The truffle salami was amazing! It's a bit out of the centre so you kind of need to make an effort to go there. The bus stops more or less in front of the place so it's not hard to get there. It was very busy place and we had booked a table in order to be able to have a seat so I recommend you to book ahead. The service was also good and the general atmosphere was nice. Recommended for all the pizza lovers!

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.

The staff is super nice, the coffee delicious, and they have the best kanelbolle I've had so far, their napoleon is also very tasty. In the evenings they serve wood fired pizza which I have yet to try, it seems pretty pricey for the size, this has been the main reason I haven't tried it. For coffee, sweets, and a relaxing cozy place to hang out it's a definite recommended pit stop.

We found ourselves a table and were shortly greeted by a pleasant server. When she didn't get a response from us she switched to English anders kind enough to help us with dessert selection. We ordered the Tiramisu and the dark chocolate mousse, with 2 americanos. It was probably the best Tiramisu I have had. Ps- they also have a variety of sandwiches and cakes and chocolates.

Translated as "Open Bakery," a Sandwich shop and Pizzeria since built under the same umbrella, it was at 08h00 that the store was found open with shelves full of golden Breads plus a few patrons quietly sipping Coffee. Mostly take-out thanks to the morning commute, diners are invited to select amongst everything from Scones to Viennoiserie, the former full of Dark Chocolate while a Blueberry Snail was light and flaky. Primarily produced in a central facility, though servers behave with pride in products, Åpent's Pain au Chocolat performs well with good rise and shattering exterior in juxtaposition to a Cardamom Bun that is fragrant and soft with crunchy Sugar all around.
