Excellent cafe with a great vibe. We had the homemade burger and the crispy chicken burger: both were delicious. Coffee was good. The waitress/cashier/barista/cook/busser/dishwasher–yes, one person did it all!–was professional and always had a smile on her face. We could not believe she had to do everything, especially since the place was at least half full while we were there. The service suffered a little for this, but it was not the fault of the lone worker. The restaurant should have had at least one more person on staff to help out. Perhaps it was just unfortunate circumstances. That said, she did a great job keeping everything together and deserves a raise!

Lovely caffe, right in the city center. There is a great ice-cream, which my mother loved. Also you can heat your sandwich in the microwave as they have it available for the guests, WCs are clean.

We had a burger, which was good. They also have salads and a soup of the day, except not the day we came in. Coffee, waffles and pastry. Good space, good parking for baby strollers outside and all in all a fine place for snack.

Was relieved to find a vegetarian burger in Kirkenes! And a lovely hot chocolate as the icy wind raged outside. Nice staff.

We had an extra few days in Kirkenes due to a forecast SAS strike. During that time we had several coffees and snacks here. The coffee was great as were the sandwiches and pastries. It’s deservedly popular with the locals. Thanks very much!
