Great place to stop for food if you're in the area. I tried the pepperbiff with champignon sauce…read more(pepper-crusted beef with mushroom sauce). It came with salad and potatoes. The salad didn't have any dressing, but it had pineapples, corn, red peppers, red onions, and mixed greens. Pretty good for Norwegian price standards. I also tried some dessert: the vanilla bean ice cream was a bit too sweet for my taste but my sister loved it. The chocolate flan/pudding was delicious, although the strawberry on top was dried out.

Thaulows Cafe is probably the most awesome place in Sandefjord!…read more We spent a lot of time their while waiting for our train to the airport and we had such nice talks with the owner and her boyfriend. It is a strange thing to say about a Cafe, but we almost felt like we were at home. In the evening we attended an open mic evening there with traditional norwegian music. All things considered: A perfect place to be in Sandefjord.

This place has a long way to go and should consider investing in training their wait staff…read more Had a reservation and we were shown to our table. We were given food menus but no wine list or drink menus. 20 frustrating minutes later the waiter came back for the first time and we asked for drink menus. Unfortunately, it didn't seem like the waiters were trained in the wine menu, as just stating what we wanted was not enough - we had to point to the wines in the menu. We ordered a French white wine but they gave us a New Zealand white, which they had already opened at the bar without showing us the label - it was put in an ice bucket an poured. First rule of serving wine: show the label to the customer before opening the bottle so they know they actually got what they ordered. The food was good, I can recommend the fish main and the duck salad starter. The starter portion was a little large, but good value for your money. This is the only redeeming quality of the place. We also sat for almost an hour after finishing our meal, before we had to go to the bar to ask them to send someone to our table so we could pay the check. Again, absolutely inattentive wait staff. All in all, if you want some ok food I recommend this place, but do not expect good service or to get a feeling of being in a restaurant. This place should stick to letting customers order at the bar when they can't offer more with table side service. It's sadly no less than expected from a "restaurant" in a small town.
