Vågen

Bergen


Coffee beans from Ethiopia, Brazil and Colombia are just a few of the selection available at this studiously shabby coffee bar, ideally placed for a caffeine fix after wandering around Bryggen or the harbour. There's a cute garden out back and plenty of pastries to munch, and there's free coffee cupping every Friday at 9am.
