Food Scene
Cafe / bakery where you can sit down and do work, or just to eat. They make all their bread in house (even sourdough with traditional rye yeast), and they are good! Being from Norway, where bread is a staple food, I can guarantee that this place is great! We've tried all their sandwiches, and none have disappointed.
