Cafés in Trondheim

Going to a café in Trondheim is a way to experience a more vibrant culture with long-standing traditions and home-made bakeries, compared to the more bland and anonymous coffee shops. People in cafés are friendly, greeting guests with a cheerful “Hello!” In some of the city’s cafés you’ll also find some of Norway’s best baristas, who are passionately concerned with making great coffee, and they usually don’t mind teaching you a trick or two.
