Charming old house with a lot of atmosphere. Enjoy a Norwegian waffle (a classic, especially when with brown cheese!) during opening hours, preferably outside in the sun next to the Akerselva river :)

Only open Sundays (13-16 I believe). Super-cozy, a hidden gem in Oslo! Very romantic, and non-typical Norwegian. The "svele" you can buy is super-Norwegian though :)

Sightseeing

The river runs all the way from Maridalsvannet in the north, to the Oslofjord in the south. It's nice to walk along it, and there are several cafes and places of interest next to it.

Kulturhuset... how to explain it.. It is a bar, yet so much more. Arguably the most interesting "going-out-place" in Norway. Three floors, with multiple rooms in each. Bars, dancing floors, shuffle boards, ping pong, fussball. Usually having cultural events like movies, presentation, discussions. Great to hang out during the day, but also the evening. Note: Friday and Saturday evening is likely to be popular, I recommend arriving before 10PM.
