"Kaffebrenneriet" (there's one in Vogtsgate too, and all over the city). This coffee chain serves likely the best coffee and definitely the best baked goods in Oslo.

In Norway you can by beer in the store, but for any other kind of alcohol you have to go to the "vinmonopolet". There's one in the shopping centre at the top of the hill, up where the tram goes. Really good selection of wines, spirits and a varied beer selection too.
