Cafe Bacchus

The Spis take

A tiny, charming bistro tucked into the old Basarhallene arches by Oslo Cathedral, doing organic-leaning French comfort cooking - croques, hearty plates, standout cakes - with a lovely garden terrace when the weather cooperates. It's romantic and rustic in a way central Oslo rarely manages, and prices stay gentler than the setting suggests. A genuine little charmer; the main caveat is that it's small, so it fills up and can feel cramped.
