Mathallen Oslo

This is a multiple smaller businesses operating within the food hall. I tried the meat and fish companies. Both were exceptional. Prices were very tourist-like but the quality was great. The multiple different stores within the market made this a one stop. I saw they also had a butcher shop with aged beef.

Loved visiting this food hall! After looking at all my options I landed on this burger place (I wish I could remember the name). But I got their angry moose burger (I think that’s what it’s called) and it was so good!! Also was my first time trying Solo as I’m from the US and it was definitely better than Fanta. Can’t wait to go back one day!

Very nice food hall with many options- Korean hot dogs, sushi, traditional food like moose burgers and reindeer, gelato, duck sandwiches, burgers and more. I saw many people with fruit smoothies. We got the duck sandwich with extra meat for $20 and the fish sandwich for almost $15. We also got a large Graff draft beer for $11 which was a great price! Everything was a good price really or very reasonable. Most importantly, our sandwiches were made quickly and were very tasty! The fish sandwich was our favorite - moist and saucy deliciousness. It was very crowded and stuffy indoors so I would suggest sitting outside. I would recommend this spot and will try to come back!

My favorite food hall in Oslo! Big selection of cuisine to choose from (reindeer stew is delicious and the coffee there is great!) It gets pretty busy but there's a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating.

Nice food hall with a large choice for food enthusiasts. Tried toasts, and salmon soup and deer, as we had to come back on three different occasions to test more food.

Mathallen Oslo is the place to go for all street food lovers. You always find something to your taste, in a pleasant setting with good vibes. For us, we found Stange Mathallen. They cook to the perfection several dishes from their top quality chickens. We tasted the pulled chicken sandwich as well as the Stange plate, both fantastic. Staff is friendly and the portions are copious. Perfect lunch stop.

Checked out this food hall in Oslo, and it did not disappoint. There’s a great variety of options—from moose burgers and pastries to sushi and dumplings. Plenty of choices to satisfy any craving, and there are even a few bars if you’re in the mood for a drink. A solid spot to explore different flavors all in one place.

Excellent food choices in a clean and beautiful hall near the Akerselva and the Damstredt. Had 4 orders of dumplings, dessert , and a poke bowl from 3 different places under one roof . Loved it!

If you are a fan of food halls, this is a small but wonderful option. First, do the look and see - give yourself 15 minutes to take a walk around the entire place to scope out what you want. Donuts? Elk meat? Dumplings? Cheese? Then once you kinda decided what you'd like, go save yourself seats in the interior of the building. There are probably 100 seats in a family style seating with long tables. Squeeze yourself in, say hi to a stranger. Be polite and clean up yourself here. That seems to be the cultural thing here - don't leave your crap on the tables and think someone will clean up for you. Warning - it's gonna be noisy. Don't plan on holding your sweetheart's hand and whispering sweet nothings in his ear because s/he/they won't be able to hear you. I ended up getting pad thai and donuts - yay for the creative mix, and a nay for how I felt afterwards, LOL.

This is a trendy food hall in Oslo with a range of gourmet shops and restaurants and bars. It's a hip place to hangout. Lots of food and drinks options. I stopped in at Helt for a moose burger (they unfortunately lost my ticket and the whole thing took an hour...in the US you would have received a refund or a feee drink ... all they said was sorry). But the food was good and loved the atmosphere too.

My wife, daughter and I enjoyed dinner here on our first night in Oslo. From our hotel near the central train station, we rode the number 12 tram a couple stops to Schous Plass followed by a seven minute walk. We arrived around 5pm to find the place quite busy on a Saturday evening. There is a central dining area here surrounded by a variety of establishments selling food and beverages. We saw a pizzeria, several hamburger joints, a Hungarian restaurant, a taqueria, a fish/seafood place, charcuterie, Indian food and more. There are also several bars offering beer, wine and spirits. Some require you to consume your beverages in their little area and others allow you to go to the common dining area. Some allow you to bring food in and others don't. It can be a little confusing but just ask. English is widely spoken here and signage/menus also had English translations. My daughter had one of her favorites butter chicken. It came with rice and veggies. She enjoyed it but thought it lacked the usual kick. My wife had fish and chips which was also enjoyable. I went to the Hungarian place and got Langos Trio. This is three small fried flat breads with different toppings. One was cheese, another shredded pork (maybe?) and the last beef. They looked as good as they tasted and it was the perfect size for me. My wife and I enjoyed beers with our meals. I had a fresh tasting IPA and she a Pilsner. Both hit the spot but were on the pricey side. Seating was tight but we met a nice Norwegian couple who shared their table with us. Meeting others can be part of the fun dining here. We enjoyed it in that regard.

Such a cool place lots of food places large variety of foods and definitely a place to visit as a tourist or just a place to chill if you local! Next to a chill place so you can take the take out order and go chill by the spot !

Everything is so good here that money'll just fly out of your pocket! It also doesn't help that it's a very welcoming and warm atmosphere that just makes you want to chill with your friends and try everything this place has to offer. Be sure to try the fish soup from that corner restaurant, a cupcake from the bakery, a tasty beer, and whatever else looks good to you. This may be one of the best food halls ever.

We came here on a recommendation from the hotel and we're not disappointed. It is made up of different food selections with simple seating. We had deer stew and the tipsy moose burger at Helt Vilt. Both were very good!

This place has an outstanding array of food stands. Everything I ate tasted like it was straight from the farm/ocean. Particular standouts were the tapas bar and the sushi. This place is contemporary Oslo. It's super clean, well appointed, and yet maintains a Norwegian simplicity of design. This food hall was one of my favorite places that I visited in Oslo. I suggest you stop in if you're in Oslo for a day or longer.

It's the food market in Oslo which has been here for a few years. It's small but indoors and warm :-) there are about 20-30 shops in there and there is a central seating place for eating food from the shops around. There is also a buffet in the middle for larger meals. You can get most groceries here including nice fresh produce and there is a top quality butcher, fish monger and cheese shops. There is a shop that sells only Norwegian products like cheese, jams, baked goods and so on. It's a really nice shop owned by a very nice guy who let me try everything :-) There are 5-6 food places here to get pintxos, snacks, confit Duck and so on. You can also get fish cooked for you at the fish monger. We had a lovely evening here walking around sampling and stopping for a glass of wine and some pintxos. A nice way to spend a cold evening in Oslo :-)

This is a good looking place with a good concept, but ordering and delivery doesn't work. Ordering by the scan code on the tables takes forever to load the website. Only a few of the menus are in English (this isn't a requirement, but they offer English as an option). After ordering we were advised that we'd receive a text when the food was ready to pick up. After 20 minutes, no text. We went to the restaurants and found our food waiting (apparently for a while). My recommendation: only order directly from a human at each restaurant. We ordered the ceviche from the Peruvian place. It was amazing. The pulled chicken sandwich from Stange was very good as well.

Such a wonderful place. My husband and I came here for lunch and had the best fish and chips ever. We also had the king crab legs which were delicious. There are so many choices and literately something for everyone from pizza, Asian, Thai, seafood and meat and cheeses. It's an amazing place - not to be missed.

trendy part of town. lots of variety of food choices but also some vendors can be pricey. don't miss the chicken sandwich at Stange-- very delicious with the herbs and fixins like a roli roti sandwich if you've ever had one. check out seafood spot; try some oysters. pasta was ok, poke a bit different

I was super excited to go to mathalen because I love a good food hall.... This one didn't disappoint! I will say, it's a bit on the small side compared to other food halls in other cities, but the quality of food was high. We had the best donut of my life there and some fairly legit Xiao long bao.... We also got to try the famous brown cheese. The walk to mathalen from public transport is a bit long, especially in the snow, but it was worthwhile.

Great food hall with a great vibe. I've been to a lot of food halls and I'm a big fan. Similar to Ponce Market in Atlanta in terms of size. Much larger and more selections than the French Market in Chicago. I got the duck confit sandwich from Ma Poule which I was unhappily disappointed with. I love duck and duck confit, but the duck itself was really salty then the mustard on the bread on top of that was just so so so salty. Also had a couple salmon nigiris from the bento place, which was ok, pretty fresh but nothing really special. Got my mom some pad thai from the noodles place which was surprisingly good, nice and sour and flavorful and a surprisingly large and filling portion in the small looking takeout box. Finally we had the citrus meringue pie from Pie and Co which was the real winner of the whole meal. Really delicious, sour and tart for the lemon and the meringue was delightfully light and airy. Great pie crust as well and really tasty without being too overboard with the sweet. Overall, I wish we got to try more things in the hall, but definitely would come for the atmosphere and other things!

Delightful food hall in what appears to be the shell of a warehouse. First of all super beautiful and well organized, everything flows in a way that makes sense and even when the place is packed the queues don't interfere with traffic or each other. Also it's in Grünerløkka, my favorite part of oslo Really great food everywhere, my most recent grab was the Duck'n Heaven sandwich from Ma Poulet. I'm a huge sucker for duck, and it was pretty good, would've been nice if it were a bit juicier. There's a bunch of other restaurants too, serving things like takeaway sushi, grilled cheese, homemade pasta, loaded croquettes, pho, ghoulash, seafood, and pulled pork. Something for everyone. They've also got a suuper bougie coffee shop in the corner. They straight up don't even have cream or sugar, only black coffee. Real pinkies-up stuff here. Also great cheese shops, where staff will allow you to sample pretty much everything, and they'll also tell you the whole story behind any cheese, which is pretty cool. Their cheese store has an incredible assortment of award winning cheeses, and they're amazing. Its a lot like french market in Chicago, perhaps turnstile in New York.

The best US analogy I can think of for Mathellen is Reading Terminal in Philadelphia, but larger, and with more sit-down restaurants. I'm not sure there is that much more I can add that hasn't already been said, but what I can reiterate is the quality of food is very high and the diversity of food is very surprising. There is a wide berth of restaurant selection, from local norwegian to french to creperie, beerpub, brewpub, thai, japanese, ice cream, philly cheesesteak, etc etc etc the list goes on. Depending on which vendor you go to, you may be at a sitdown restaurant, a central dining area with your food (think food court), as well as grocery shopping for home ingredients (spices, meats, vegetables, cheeses, fish, wine, etc.). Everything appears to be artisanally crafted and prepared and while crowded, it was still very manageable.

Amazing food hall for tourists and locals alike. They have such a variety of vendors including but not limited to a French bakery, Japanese bentos, Italian pastas, Spanish tapas, fish and chips, fresh meat and seafood, vegetable market, chocolate stand, crepes, gelato...the list goes on. The food hall gets crowded during lunch to late afternoon, but still plenty of seating if you're willing to share a table. They also have free wi-fi. Bathrooms are downstairs. I came here on my last day in Oslo before our flight later tonight, so we were only able to try Ma Poule for their duck confit sandwiches, PARADIS Gelateria for gelato, and French Bakery for one of their buns. Don't miss out out on the duck confit sandwich! The way they made it was to break up a huge brick of shredded duck on a grill. It smelled amazing swizzling away with all that juicy fat. They top a significant amount of duck on a 10 inch baguette, add arugula, and a tangy mustard sauce. Surprisingly, it was one of the cheapest things I had in Oslo. A sandwich was only 79 KR, which on my credit card resolved to $9.97 USD. Don't miss out on this sandwich! We got a raisin bun from the French Bakery. Even though it's French, they still flavored it with cardamon. Not my favorite spice for baked goods. There weren't enough raisins either. I think PARADIS Gelateria is a chain store in Oslo, but they still served up some pretty decent gelato. Especially the gianduja flavor. This was my brother's first time having gianduja gelato and he loved it. They have mini cones which you can add to your cup of gelato for 5 KR each. You can't buy a custom made mini cone, but they do sell premade ones dipped in chocolate also for 5 KR. I really wanted a custom one, so I bought a cup of gelato and made my own. Out of all the vendors, it looked like Vulkanfisk Seafoodbar seemed to be the most popular and have the most seating. People seemed to only be ordering their fish and chips, chowders, and mussels. Wish I came earlier to try more of the vendors.

Every time there is a food market to explore, I will find it. Mathallen is in the Vulcan area and is an easy 15-20 minute walk from the city center. There are a variety of options like French, Spanish, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Italian food for order as well as shops to buy groceries. We tried some freshly made pasta as well as a Vietnamese tapas joint. Great spot and worth a visit!

We were in Norway on a quick 24 hour layover and wanted the perfect spot to sample as much local food as possible in a short time. Mathallen Oslo was perfect! We first tried some sushi made with local fish. Although sushi wouldn't be the first thing I think of when in Oslo, the nigiri -- made with big, fresh slices of local seafood -- was amazing! We then tried the fish bar for oysters and classic Norwegian Fish stew. The oysters were briny and delicious. The Fish stew was creamy, had a variety of tasty seafood, and was perfect with the bread and house-made aioli for dipping. My only regret was being too full to try the locals sausages, which I have read are amazing as well. As must be noted: like basically everything in Oslo, the food here was expensive.

Really more of a fancy foodie hangout as opposed to a place to buy food to prepare at home. Only one vendor in each category (i.e. coffee, seafood). Great prepared food. Vulkanfisk shrimp dishes are great as probably all of their menu. Affordable by Oslo standards.

Very fun to wander around and delicious food. I had a sit down meal, ice cream and also bought some fresh veggies as groceries to take home to snack on. Fun atmosphere, high quality foods, well worth the visit.

Mathallen is foodie paradise! Everything the adventurous palate could possibly desire is right here. Reindeer pate at Anni's, whale meat at the fishmonger, Kombucha at the raw food stall, incredible chicken sandwiches at Stangeriet, a huge variety of herbs, spices and produce at the grocer, local delicacies like Lofoten goat meat from Bondens butikk. The budget-conscious foodie should check out the Too Good To Go app. Several businesses in Mathallen offer discounts at the end of the day.

Mathallen is the food spot that you have to check out if you are in Oslo! With a variety of vendors and delicious home-made products you'll find something available for everyone. What really struck me is the pride that people have in their products. They encourage you test all that they have to offer in some of the shops, and vendors were enthusiastic to talk your ear full about what they were serving. Decent amount of seating and an overall trendy area. My only gripe is how pricey some of the Asian food was given the quality. As an Asian American I'm tired of seeing my food sold for a premium price without a premium quality. Basically I wouldn't recommend getting Asian food here especially the overpriced Bao, but everything else seemed decent.

Full of delicious goodies; however your pockets can get empty pretty quickly if you don't watch it :|

If you are visiting Oslo, this is a must stop if you want a good meal! There are several different restaurants to go to. My wife and I chose the Italian restaurant, Via Italia. Oh my goodness! What a meal! Excellent pasta! The portions were huge, you could honestly split the meal between two people! We had a such a good time sitting at a communal table. Met a friendly Norwegian family and had a great time just people watching! If you want cloud berry jam, good luck finding it, sometimes, you just have to ask. ;) (One store keeps it hidden behind the counter) It's your job to find it. :)

I love this place. If there was one in Glasgow I would visit all the time. In fact there should be one in Glasgow, but this ain't the place to campaign for that! So what is it? Is a huge food and drinks warehouse/hall selling some amazing quality produce at all sorts of mini stalls/cafes/pop ups. It's like a market but in doors and it's ace. Some of the highlights are - Hello good pie - the most amazing dessert pies you will ever try..... Like ever. Savoury ones are good to. Hop yard - awesome and friendly craft beer bar, great range and lovely decor/location. Such a cool place for a pint. Altier Asian tapas - on a Sunday they do pho as well. It was some of the tastiest I had ever tried. So good and authentic. These were my three favourite spots, but there was tonnes of others. Everything from sandwich shops to coffee places, tapas to seafood. Get yourself along and try it!

Very good experience! Great fish and chips, very good tapas and cheese shops! Love it

Overall this is a great concept and a great place to sample a variety of food. We had good sushi, mussels, tea and pastries. Just be aware that the hours listed for each vendor on the hall's website are not accurate. Half the shops that were supposed to open at 10 opened at 11, and shops that were supposed to close at 19 closed at 17 or 18. Frustrating if you're trying to plan a busy day. Planning to be there early afternoon is the safest bet.

Mathallen is awesome! I have no idea why anyone would bother going to the grocery with this place in existence. The hubby and I have ate and drank here a few times and done our grocery shopping. There's produce, an amazing butcher, seafood, meats, cheeses, chocolates, dry goods, pasta, beer and the list goes on. I love that you can buy some food to eat and then sit at a table in the middle and chill and eat and socialize. There is a bar in the middle where you can order drinks too which is great! The definite stops to make in here at the very minimum are Ma Poule, Hopyard and Hello Good Pie.

I really wanted to love Mathallen but I just like it. As an American I love the food court style of dinning. Mathallen is so so expensive though! Great quality products and the concept is excellent so I´ll be back but it´s not a frequent stop for me.

It took many years but finally it is here in Oslo too. Great concept that has to last.. But, in order to last I hope the aim is to keep prices decent. I love the Korean tapas place and Anni's - both with excellent food and decent prices.

Absolutely loved this place.. Loved the confit duck sandwich from ma poulle.. This is such a great concept putting all these different food in tiny portions to taste in a character full building on the side of the river.. is great.. I would recommend you to sit by the window and look out over the river while you have a bite of your sandwich and sip on your bordeaux. Good job!

It was nice and all, but nothing stands out in my opinion. I just can't help comparing it with the Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne and the La Boqueria in Barcelona.

Mathallen is a very cool foodhall but we made the wrong choice... we went to the chinese noodles stand to order bao burgers with a fried rice. The bao burgers were ok, but the hoisin sauce was a bit too heavy. The fried rice was tasteless... And the staff not that friendly. I couldn't find the name of the stand on Mathallen's website, maybe it is closed? I still give 4 stars because Mathallen is cool!

A great place to soak in the local and international life Oslo offers. Many options and open late. The longest bar in Scandinavia is located below - make sure to check it out.

I LOVE this place and I cant stress enough. Yes its small, yes its pricey for a food hall or market BUT Oslo is not London and this cannot be compared to the Bourough Market. The best thing about Mathallen is that its open on Sundays and its surrounded by lovely walking tracks through parks and streets and bridges. The food here is medium to great, depends where you eat. The cheeses are delicious and you can taste as much as you want when deciding. Hello Good Pie is just amazing!!! The chocolate pecan, blueberry crumble and the toffee pecan are delicious delicious. I didn't like the lemon meringue that much though. The Cheeseburger pie is also nice and different. I wouldn't say this is pricey. Ma Poulens duck confit sandwich is OK. Even though im a fan of duck and baguettes, i just didn't like this too much. Though the view of the stream from out table was amazing Stangeriet offers the yummiest kyilling sandwich burger, delicious. Mathallen is especially crowded on Sundays and public holidays but i always love going here. Even though everything is the same whenever i go, i discover something new and nice. Id love to try the tapas bar and the asian fusion bar next time. The grocery store offers exotic fruit and many /international delicacies, spices and confectioneries. The prices range from medium to pricey, depending on where you eat from. After a great meal at Mathallen, I suggest you go for a wonderful but steep incline walk through the historic olso street called telthusbakken

Ive never tried the restaurants in Mathallen but the selection of high quality international and local groceries is worth the trip to the place. Good service is it to, the only downer with this place is the high prices.

Great little market with tons of different things. From groceries, desserts and bread and coffee to restaurants, etc. We tried two things form the market from different places (can't remember which ones though). One was like a duck sandwich and the other I think was some type of chicken salad sandwich. They were truthfully just okay, nothing special to me. Though expensive to me, norway is general is expensive for people coming from the US though and used to prices being 50% lower for food lol. I paid basically 15-20 bucks for a basic sandwich that in the US you probably would pay max 10-15 bucks. I liked the market, super cute and fun, but not the prices, and not the food i tried. Next time I go Im gonna find out what to try first on yelp so its worth the money lol.

I hate that I didn't love this place, because it had all the marking of success. My favourite thing is the Mathallen building itself: beautiful brick and a fine repurposed use of space. However: the buzz around Mathallen oversold, and the reality underdelivered. It hardly felt like the "center for Norwegian food culture"; quite a few of the products were ones that either originated, or can be easily found in, the UK. Divine Chocolates, for instance, are delicious, but coming from the USA hardly give a sense for small locally-produced support. There are food stalls (like in a more traditional farmer's market) as well as permanent restaurants around the perimeter. Some are also a mix of sit-and-eat and take to go, such as the pie shop (separate review coming). A nice fishmonger. A place for Spanish tapas. It's pleasant to walk through but the vibe is really 'try-hard'; like the people behind Mathallen were wanting to take aspects from a traditional market but then make it more exclusive thereby alienating many would-be shoppers? To end on a high note: I had some amazing brie at the cheesemonger that tasted like buttery cauliflower (seriously), and was also introduced to Norwegian brown cheese by a very well-informed stall owner. Yelp note: I recognise this review might read harshly, but also concede that Mathallen might just not have hit its stride just yet. Right now it's trying to be too much to too many...striking the balance that they are attempting to (cold but warm! modern but traditional! accessible but exclusive! local but global!) could take time if it even has a chance of success.

An awesome indoor market. Mostly prepared foods and restaurants in a beautiful and artistic corner of the city. A must see for all foodies

Overrated: It's a medium-sized building with about 20-30 ultra-high too sterile, modernly designed seafood, meat, cheese, chocolate and wine shops. It's designed so high-end, the byproduct is an air of pretentiousness that makes Whole Foods seem down-to-earth. This means that if you're a visitor, you can't afford anything, especially local goods. I'd skip it if I came back.

Great small places to eat there. Can get surprisingly expensive but there is an excellent pizza and noodle place there that offers super tasty food. Good buZz if you manage to hit it at the right time. Can get uncomfortably busy and strangely quiet too. Totally recommend it as it'll have something for everyone.

This might be like swearing at church, but this place is a lot smaller then i expected it to be. I was here on a saturday, and thats like just working against the crowd. It was packed here!! Not in a good way. First off i really did not get the feel of this place. Is a huge restaurant or is it a huge marked place. it supposed to be both. But its obvious that the restaurant part is really important, most of the space is for dining and not shopping. It seems to me that they want to to come, stay there all day and drink. And a lot of people did just that, but the turn-over on the tables where slow. We ended up just walking around, getting some stuff and then just walk back home to prepare our food. My hopes might effect my rating, but i really had hoped for something amazing and where people went around, buying their lunch, sitting down at a table to prepare it and enjoy and then get moving again. But there are some amazing stores here and thats whats saves my experience and the food that we did get was really good!

From what I have seen in Oslo, I would probably spend a lot of time here. You can find those kind of food courts in a lot of cities but I was very pleased with that one. The building itself is very nice, industrial style. Inside it looks nice too, very clean. You can find food from all over the world and each little shop has its own style. It takes forever to decide what to eat because everything looks great. I thought I should have local food while being there so I opted for meatballs in a gravy sauce with mashed potatoes and some berries. The cool thing is that you can take away food from anywhere and eat it in the middle. There is a nice bar where you are allowed to sit as long as you order some drinks. I enjoyed my meal a lot. It was exactly what I needed to warm up. I wish I would have had more time to come back!

Too much good, fresh food to tempt me! While I considered it a tad pricey, figure it's normal for Norway. Plenty of choices, great for a meal / snack / gifts! Big props to Den Blind Ku. A very nice and helpful young woman explained several of the traditional Norwegian cheeses to me, giving me big samples to nibble, and finally selling me on their clove/nutmeg Gouda, which was so creamy and warm. The one with fenugreek was very tasty as well. Also, to the man at Gutta Pa Haugen for going over the different types of cured meats and showing me the best lamb prosciutto I've ever eaten. Now if only I can find something comparable in the states!

Travel anywhere else outside Oslo, in Norway, and you´ll see city centers filled with urban planners trying to make something to emulate this project, pitifully. Slick marketing, shiny packaging and sign boards, attracting high end snobbery to the max. Executed poorly, this is like bourgeois paradise. Executed fairly well, as Mathallen is, then at least on paper succeeds - filled with nice artisanal goods, local produce, variation, locale. The connection to the farmers market is probably the best thing about the place. The opening hours, few redundant vendors and lame business folk -- is not.

Very good location and place in Oslo. Lots of farmer sourced food and options. My favorite places here are the pizza place, the cheese from Den Blinden Ku and the small stands. I am not a huge fan of the Asian places here. The noodle bar is just OK compared to what you get in Asia. Hitchhiker has some fantastic options but more fusion, and very expensive for street food:)

Great atmosphere and good selection of food places. A bit "new" good potential! Recommended

Pretty cool place to try some different types of food. There are several Spanish themed tapas bar, a sushi place, some tea and coffee shops, cheese counter and meat and seafood counters and a whole bunch of other stuff I am missing. We stopped by one of the tapas places and had a drink and some bicadillos - San Sebastián style. Then we headed to the seafood place in the back and had some awesome pepper grilled king crab. The sauce was very flavorful and the meat melt in your mouth. One of the other travelers had mussels that he said were the best he'd ever had. Good place to stop by for a quick bite at a food counter. Not the best if you are looking for a full service sit down restaurant.

Awesome place to walk around and munch on different foods as a tourist. There's great craft brews, breads, normal produce, sushi, and more! So many different choices and a great vibe here. Grab a bite here and head on down to the main Grunerlokka area - if it's a Sunday, then there were a lot of flea markets and more.
