It was a bit expensive at around $25 but still filling. Cheapest thing are the chicken nuggets which were about $12. Chocolate cake is good. There are also games to play (English/Norwegian/both). Floor shakes when people walk up on it since the building is raised. Made me queasy after a long car ride. There is also a nice patio outside for dining. There was only one woman working so it took a while to take our orders and serve the food as there were quite a few other guests, but she was nice and we didn't mind waiting 20 or so minutes.

The fish quality is top tier and well worth the value and price that they put out for their menu items.

They also have plenty of drinks here at average prices. My cocktail had some bright and fresh raspberries!

We just finished our lunch at Cafe Ole (review: https://bit.ly/3ckj0Zb), but we couldn't help but notice the tall soft serve cones that a lot of kids were getting. Our inner children were speaking to us and whispering in my ear..."Dude, you know you want one. Never mind that you're way too old and pudgy to deserve one, but hey, don't let that stop you." Gee, I hate that inner voice. But we saw this spot down the path from Cafe Ole and went for it, the 49 NOK ($5) Softis. They offered toppings which they turned into an exercise in dipping dexterity. The server botched his first attempt at adding rainbow sprinkles as the soft serve fell out of the cone as he turned it in the bowl, but his second try was a success (photo: https://bit.ly/3T9jRg0). Yep, it hit the spot. "Dude, you deserve it." That wasn't my inner voice, that was me in self-validation mode.

So, there aren't many places to eat dinner affordably in "downtown" Geiranger. The other two…read morerestaurants open for dinner cost an arm and a leg. So, my husband and I, after a day of hiking, settled on this little take-out window. We both ordered the 100 g cheeseburger combo, which includes fries and a soft drink. To our surprise, the burger was decent! It came on soft bread with lettuce, tomatoes, red onion slices, and thousand island burger dressing. The fries were crunchy as expected. We sat in the little outdoor area, people watching the other tourists looking for an affordable meal. Our meal cost about $14 per person with the current conversion rates. They also make pizzas, which many people were ordering to go. They looked pretty good. I'd rate the food three stars, but I am giving it an extra star simply because it was the only affordable restaurant actually open for dinner. Most people visit from the cruise ships and daytime bus tours, so once those people leave, most stores/eateries shut down, around 4-5pm. So kudos to them for actually staying open to feed the "poorer" tourists.
