Great place to stop for food if you're in the area. I tried the pepperbiff with champignon sauce…read more(pepper-crusted beef with mushroom sauce). It came with salad and potatoes. The salad didn't have any dressing, but it had pineapples, corn, red peppers, red onions, and mixed greens. Pretty good for Norwegian price standards. I also tried some dessert: the vanilla bean ice cream was a bit too sweet for my taste but my sister loved it. The chocolate flan/pudding was delicious, although the strawberry on top was dried out.

The customer service is absolutely above and beyond average. Complimentary coffee comes with the purchased meal which is standard at this restaurant! You have to try this place out if you are in the area!

Needless to say the trek was not worth the muffins and the restaurant kind of sucks. It's your call though could be good if they actually had the menu items in stock.

While mainly serving as a cafe, there is a decent section of "stuff" to admire while you wait for your order. All for sale of course- whether you fancy a 50's inspired magnet saying "Coffee" You can sleep when you're dead!" or other quasi-retro items for your home then this is a fun browse! Also I can definitely recommend the hazelnut flavoured filter coffee which you can buy in bags of 250 gr or more. Also, if you have coffee beans that you'd like to have ground (if you like me don't own a coffee grinder) they can do this for you at a rate of 10 NOK. A bit peculiar to think that they're charging for this, but I really needed to get the job done so I'm not complaining! The back yard is also lovely with great seating areas. Coffee is delicious and from what I hear the ice tea is also worth a try ;)

Bar none the best coffee in town. Delighted to discover this awesome cafe on my trip to Sandefjord…read more The only real brew I had during my week long stay. We had sandwiches made with hearty peasant bread and scrumptious cheese and a delectable homemade cereal bar. And thanks for holding the scarf I forgot. An opportune time for a coffee to go :-)

The proprietor was so friendly, and she was curious about where I was from since I was speaking english. I told her Seattle and she thought that was cool. She also showed this interest in a young couple that came in a little after me... they too were from Seattle and had just moved here like me! The gal exclaimed this was definitely meant to be! And I agree! Anyway, I ordered the Varm Sjokolade (hot chocolate) I can easily say it's the best I've ever had. It was a huge cup meant for slow sipping while browsing the cool vintage items displayed for sale. I enjoyed my time at Retrolykke Kaffebar. It was so good, so cozy, and so friendly it can easily be a regular stop for me.

Adults and kids alike will feel themselves in ease in this cafe with a living room feeling. Sometimes I stay for hours just to relax, drink coffee and eat some of the small food available. There's a menu but it is quite short, anyway, the soups, quiches and salads are delicious. Coffee is good too. One of the few places in town who knows what "cortado" is about. LOVE IT! So does my 6 years old

Great little coffee shop to get locally roasted coffee, their roast is true to the "filterkaffe"…read morestyle that is common in Norway. A must try with your coffee is their "vaffel", norwegian traditional favorite with their own spin on the milk selection. They have a nice outdoor seating area facing the main street of Lillestrøm, Storgata. This is a pedestrian only street so the people watching factor is high.
