Just to give you a heads-up on your own packaged Norway adventure, Flåm and Geiranger are the two…read morevillages in which you'll spend an inordinate amount of time because they are the tourist hubs of the most picturesque fjords in Norway. Geiranger is the smaller of the two with only 250 residents, but it's Norway's third largest cruise ship port. It definitely felt like it when Jamie W. and I were there during a two-hour stop on our fjord cruise from Ålesund (review: https://bit.ly/3ckj0Zb). Beyond looking at the torrent that courses through town, we didn't much to do but eat. Options were pretty limited unless you want a hot dog. Like real bad. This cafe is on the main pedestrian walkway between the campground parking and the cruise ship terminal, and we weren't that hopeful of its quality based on its prime location. It was also drawing a lot of loudish tourists from various nations, and they weren't mindful of either the noise they were making or the excessive space they were taking. It was enough to test the limits of my butt-clenching abilities. However, we were pretty delighted by what we ordered and shared. First up was the 190 NOK ($19.30) Ham & Cheese Sandwich, generously portioned on a baguette with cucumber slices bringing fresh crunch (photo: https://bit.ly/3QHsgWn). Then there was the 280 NOK ($28.50) Dagens Suppe (Soup of the Day), a spicy and creamy carrot soup topped with toasted croutons and scallions (photo: https://bit.ly/3R363BP). Yes, it was like a school cafeteria lunch but a really well done one. We were pleased because we had a 3-1/2-hour boat ride back to Ålesund, and we didn't want no stinkin' hot dog. FOOD - 4 stars...surprisingly satisfying ham & cheese baguette sandwich and spicy carrot soup AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...well-kept to keep the tourists under control SERVICE - 4 stars...quite polite considering how rude some customers were TOTAL - 4 stars...if you're ever in Geiranger, this may be your best bet for a quick bite RELATED - Exploring Norway?

You of course don't come here for fancy coffee but it has black coffee and some yummy home baked waffles and cakes. The owner is very sweet and the cafe has this typical small town feel to it, except this one is with million dollar views! You can easily spend a couple hours here basking in the sun listening to the birds and the sheep graze. Dont forget to bring a nice camera and you will never forget this place. :)

My very best latte was in Chiapas, Mexico. And the brownie--ah best brownie ever! Seriously, I've had my fair share of brownies and have my favorites back home, but this one with the cashews and chocolate brought me back to the best chocolate cake I had in Bryggen, Bergen. So good, I also ordered another one for later--great decision! :) The croissant was also yummy and the white chocolate raspberry scone was good. The avocado toast with paprika however was a little bland with the bread a little too doughy for me. But still edible. Very friendly staff, nice views of Alesund, great coffee. Highly recommend!
