A wonderful place to relax. We started with a nice cup of coffee outside on the terrace surrounding the beautiful building. Later, we enjoyed dinner with the fylt rødspette and brun lappskaus; both well prepared and very tasty. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the staff were personal, friendly, and helpful. Highly recommended for anyone staying in or passing through the Syndin area!

Lovely place. The staff are really nice. We were on a bicycle trip and it was incredibly windy so we didn't arrive until much later than expected in the evening. Michael who works there was really friendly and helped us get settled. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice cafe with great food, although a bit on the expensive side. But considering the location, also to be expected. A grocery store next to the cafe.

Nice place and lovely staff! We were on a bikepacking trip and we arrived late! They made dinner for us and we also got an early breakfast. The “machine” who works there is a really friendly person and helped us get settled. 100% recommendable!
