Yummy, yummy warm belly

As soon as I mentioned I was vegetarian the adorable waitress helped me to choose. Bombay Bowl was delicious. I asked for the regular size.

Pros: Delicious, Super friendly and helpful staff

Cons: Wish there were more vegan options

Delicious, hearty food

I ate here with my omni partner, and we both loved the food. The menu is quite limited, but there is a very good vegan option (the bombay bowl), and they offer vegan garlic butter to go with the bread. The bowls come in two sizes, baby and regular. The regular bowl is very generous and I couldn't finish all of the bread. Staff are very pleasant and speak English. The menu is also in English. Would definitely recommend this place for vegans and vegetarians wanting hearty food in Oslo.

Tasty but no vegan spreads

The soup itself was delicious, but it’s a shame that while these bowls usually comes with garlic butter to spread on the leftover bread, there is no vegan alternative offered so it’s a lot of plain bread. It’s also quite pricey but that might just be Oslo

Pros: Delicious, Some vegan options

Cons: Small portion for the price , No vegan garlic spread

Very tasty, fun concept!

Two vegan bread bowl options: an Indian lentil soup and an Indonesian coconut soup. Both looked delicious, I chose the second one. Price quality is good (considering how expensive Oslo is), nice bread and soup was very tasty. Would definitely return.

Fabulous and cheap bread bowls

Came highly rated and did not disappoint. They always have 2 different vegan breadbowls on offer. Very well priced, especially considering it’s Norway.

Good in theory

The idea of putting things inside a bowl made of bread is amazing and it did taste really good. They even use sourdough which I believe is gluten free? But the bread part was super difficult to eat and I ended up getting it everywhere!! Worth it though

Pros: So delicious, Good idea, Real cheap

Cons: Serves meat n dairy, Bread is difficult to eat, Small plates so mess goes everywhere

Highly recommended! The friendliest staff ever, plus delicious food!

Super friendly staff, cozy interior, delicious savory and satisfying bread bowls and a range of beers and kombuchas on tap. The vegan options are clearly marked and I think some of the people involved are either vegan or vegetarian. Anyway, the staff really went out of their way to make our visit here nice and memorable. Located in Frogner right by a buss stop, it’s easy to get to. They have seating on two floors, plus outdoor seating as well. Also the prices are quite reasonable. Definitely check this place out!

Pros: Kombucha on tap, Warm and friendly staff, Outdoor seating
