We just finished our lunch at Cafe Ole (review: https://bit.ly/3ckj0Zb), but we couldn't help but notice the tall soft serve cones that a lot of kids were getting. Our inner children were speaking to us and whispering in my ear..."Dude, you know you want one. Never mind that you're way too old and pudgy to deserve one, but hey, don't let that stop you." Gee, I hate that inner voice. But we saw this spot down the path from Cafe Ole and went for it, the 49 NOK ($5) Softis. They offered toppings which they turned into an exercise in dipping dexterity. The server botched his first attempt at adding rainbow sprinkles as the soft serve fell out of the cone as he turned it in the bowl, but his second try was a success (photo: https://bit.ly/3T9jRg0). Yep, it hit the spot. "Dude, you deserve it." That wasn't my inner voice, that was me in self-validation mode. SOFT SERVE - 4 stars...creamy indulgence AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...it was just a window but hey, Geiranger is gorgeous SERVICE - 4 stars...no penalty for the botched initial dipping TOTAL - 4 stars..."Dude, you deserve it."

So, there aren't many places to eat dinner affordably in "downtown" Geiranger. The other two…read morerestaurants open for dinner cost an arm and a leg. So, my husband and I, after a day of hiking, settled on this little take-out window. We both ordered the 100 g cheeseburger combo, which includes fries and a soft drink. To our surprise, the burger was decent! It came on soft bread with lettuce, tomatoes, red onion slices, and thousand island burger dressing. The fries were crunchy as expected. We sat in the little outdoor area, people watching the other tourists looking for an affordable meal. Our meal cost about $14 per person with the current conversion rates. They also make pizzas, which many people were ordering to go. They looked pretty good. I'd rate the food three stars, but I am giving it an extra star simply because it was the only affordable restaurant actually open for dinner. Most people visit from the cruise ships and daytime bus tours, so once those people leave, most stores/eateries shut down, around 4-5pm. So kudos to them for actually staying open to feed the "poorer" tourists.

The menu has many delicious options, mostly burgers, but a few other things to choose from which is nice for larger groups of people. We had the bone marrow on toast and the classic burger with asparagus, sweet potato fries, asparagus, and potato purée with caramelized onions and bacon. Every single thing was delicious. Highlights were the potato purée and their house-made ketchup. The ketchup was like nothing I've ever had before and it was delicious. Wait staff was friendly and helpful. If I find myself in Molde again I will be back!

Great cafe for dinner! My husband and I found this place because we wanted apple cake, but then…read morealso realized that their dinner menu looked pretty interesting. Hubby ordered the Norway Tapas plate, which included brown toasted bread, dried cod fish fried balls, marinated crawfish, salad, sausage, and garlic mayo. The cod fish balls were amazing, and reminded me of croquettes from Spain. Hubby liked everything, but the sausage was just okay. I had the fish soup. The bowl is HUGE! And it is delicious! It's creamy, and contained large chunks of cod fish, crawfish, and carrot slices. For dessert, we shared the apple cake with ice cream, whipped cream, and caramel sauce. We liked the cake, but honestly we were a little let down, because that afternoon, we sampled the apple cake in the cafe of the Ålesund Aquarium. Surprisingly, the apple cake at the aquarium was way better, as the cake was a nice pound cake with lots of layered apples on top and in the cake. The apple cake at a Lyspunktet is lighter and doesn't contain that much apple. Overall though, great meal at Lyspunktet, highly recommend!

The Norwegian currency has devalued about 20% from last year as its currency is linked to oil/gas prices so it's good for tourists, for now in a volatile world where the only constant is change. They have WiFi and clean restrooms. They also have free tap water so Starbucks Southampton England take note (they charged me for a plastic cup of tap water there in Summer 2022 - they marked the cup H2O and they later apologised but it broke my being loyal to the brand.) On our first visit we sat at a cosy table and despite having lots of customers it was delightfully quiet. It was a first for us here, as upon ordering I was told that the wait for two cappuccino was 15 minutes and I was handed one of those electronic buzzers that I've only been given on cruise ships before now. The odd thing was that I was the only one at the counter ordering. Hey-ho we had nothing to do that day so we watched the world go by. On our second visit it was another cosy table and cappuccino again. We were also handed the ubiquitous buzzer and waited about 20 minutes again. This time we also shared a portion of tasty apple cake (more cake than apple) with ice cream and whipped cream. Certainly recommend this slow place.

It notes on their sign that they have "probably the best fish and chips in the world" and I must say, the fish was crispy and very flavorful. The fish and chips come with fish, fries and your choice of dipping sauce. The small order has 1 piece of fish, two for medium, and three for the large. They also have a selection of burgers as well. Service was a little slow after we ordered, but it was worth the wait. That being said, There was a solid line to order the entire time we were there! There are tables and seating available outdoors or you can take away. We would defiantly recommend and would come back again.
