Vespa & Humla

The Spis take

A relaxed Italian-leaning cafe on the Rodeløkka/Grünerløkka edge that pulls a devoted brunch crowd and doubles as a taproom for the neighbouring craft brewery. The porchetta, the pizzas and the house/local beers are the reasons to come, and the neighbourhood-bar warmth is genuine. Just know the room can get noisy and drafty in winter, and reviewers flag that service and the breakfast plates can be hit-or-miss on a busy morning.
