The best restaurants Trondheim

Café Ni Muser is a café and at the same time an artistic place. Large backyard to enjoy the sunny days over a cup of good coffee in beautiful company. Located right next to the Trondheim Art Museum, the cinema, the theatre and the Nidaros Cathedral, this place is perfect for a break before continuing your sightseeing programme. The menu is varied and the prices remain reasonable for the quality of the products offered. Two pastry chefs take turns to offer all kinds of cakes, pastries and breads.

At the water's edge Lille Skansen is an unpretentious address. You are welcome at any time of the day to come and enjoy a good burger, pasta, a croque-monsieur, fish. This restaurant is made for the whole family and also for the youngest because they propose children's menus. You can also simply go there to drink a coffee or why not, eat a good dessert, like their oatmeal crumble with berries of the moment, or their homemade chocolate cake with its raspberry sorbet ball.

In the heart of Nordre, in a pretty white house typical of old Trondheim, welcome to Bror Tacos & Burgers. A very good address often visited by the youth of Trondheim. Wide choice of burgers and tacos with different vegetarian and vegan options. The chefs have chosen the quality of the chosen products, we like it a lot and we hesitate to go back the next day. The team is also very friendly and offers a service that is both simple and perfect, in the right measure. We are attracted by the dishes that we see passing by.

Cow Sea is a restaurant that offers both meat, burgers and other steaks and delicious sushi! A curious mix, we might think at first glance, but here, they do both very well! The dish of the house "the Cow Sea Experience" is a dish to share that offers a variety of dishes, from sushi to grill. An interesting mix of cultures and flavours! This restaurant formula also makes it possible to satisfy everyone, young and old, sushi fans or fans of juicy burgers and very nicely garnished with good products.

Hector is not a place like the others. Just take a look at the website and you'll see that. The design is there, the humour too. The service is impeccable for this Mexican-inspired restaurant. Tacos galore, jewels on the tables, sangria flowing freely. The Saturday brunch formula is really nice. Reservations are highly recommended. Almost every weekend, DJs take turns at the bar, where it's also a good idea to book a table. A real experience!

Lars Laurentius Paulsen's motto is: tradition and renewal. Or how to bring up to date the Norwegian culinary traditions of yesteryear. This is the challenge of this restaurant, and it has been met with flying colours! There is also a small stage where some artists come to perform. On the menu, cod, salmon cooked with small vegetables, reindeer steak with cabbage and mushrooms and of course a vegetarian selection. Troll is also known for its good beer and wine list.

On a quay bordered at the very beginning by the central station, this place is ideal for all travellers! It is a boathouse for wintering, which when the sun comes back out is transformed into a rather rustic bar, all wood, crates and fishermen's nets; a decor which is also the soul of this place. Solid guys haunt the tables before going back to restore their old trawlers... The bacalao are delicious, the local beer, the Dahl, too. Not necessarily very welcoming but perfect for those looking for a local atmosphere.

Right in the center of Trondheim is Cafe 3B. The café has recently been transformed into a concert bar, earning it a reputation as one of the most popular places to discover local bands. Its pub atmosphere accentuates the warm, relaxed ambience: darts and shuffleboard are available for customers wishing to share a good time over a beer. A selection of local draughts is on the menu. On concert evenings, the bar is packed to the rafters: you'll need to arrive early after checking the program!

Part of a chain of decent, inexpensive restaurants with a rustic setting, this one has chosen a décor of exposed beams and stones, old working tools, antique Singer sewing machines and lamps with green shades. A pizza lunch with salad costs around NOK 150. On the menu: warm goat's cheese salad with pomegranate and cranberries, English breakfast, numerous slices of bread, smørbrød. Also on the menu are Asian dishes and meat and fish dishes. There is also a special menu for children.

A simple, elegant Norwegian bistro in downtown Trondheim. You'll receive a warm welcome and prompt service. The varied menu combines continental and local cuisine, with a particularly recommended fish soup. The place is busy at lunchtime and in the evening, so book ahead if you don't want to sit down too late. You can also drop in for a drink, perhaps to sample the local beer brewed just a few yards away, Dahls.

After the drawbridge, on the cobblestones of the old town stands the yellow façade of one of Trondheim's most charming restaurants. The house, with its creaking wooden floors, is a listed building dating from 1791. Behind the bar, 248 different aquavits are waiting to be tasted. If, like us, you have a penchant for fish soup, the house's is delicious. Melting salmon, crunchy pink shrimps, carrots, fennel, tasteful! The walls lean under the period frames, the shelves bend under the trinkets of all kinds, a real café-brocante.
