As a faithful customer to W.B Samson in general, (4/5 visits weekly last 4 yrs), it is with great…read moredispleasure I conclude that after several visits to this particular W.B Samson café, this one is the least welcoming of all its cafés in the Oslo area. Surprisingly difficult staff; poor to non-existent service and stressing their customers while they make their orders. They are also highly unhelpful in accomodating customers´ wishes; wishes that don´t raise any eyebrows in the other W.B Samson cafés throughout the city, are all of a sudden a source of debate with the staff at this one. Very sad to say that this way of business for this particular W.B Samson café seems to be a pattern rather than an exception. I have personally stopped coming here altogether- I came for the beverages, not to be verbally punched in the face.

Great coffee and friendly service! Love the fire station backdrop. We tried several places but…read morewent back to this one.

Nordvegan was the first place I checked out when visiting Oslo. I was glad it was so close to…read morecentral Oslo, where my partner and I were staying. What I later realized to be common at restaurants in Oslo was a buffet-like display of food, but the dishes are singular menu items vs. being able to add a little of everything to your plate. I opted for a salad-bowl type dish, full of fresh delicious veggies (which was much needed after a long flight.) However, they also had plenty of heartier dishes if you needed something with a bit more weigh to it. All food is ordered at the counter and the employees were very helpful guiding my partner and I (and easily accommodated our english only language skills.) The space on the inside was a bit on the small side, but they had a lovely patio in the back that's perfect in the beautiful summer season of Oslo. Definitely a necessary stop for vegans traveling through.

Small complaints though! Tasty and fresh vegan food (my wife is vegetarian, I'm an omnivore FWIW), especially the deserts and sushi. Friendly and fast service, those two women were really hustling! Lovely garden out back.

Fresh vegetables, tea, juice and baked goods can also be found here, and when you add everything else you find in common health store you all of a sudden got yourself a new favorite place. Røtter offers products from Pukka, Teapigs and Helios just to mention some. A personal favorite is Epleslang, a local apple juice. It comes in a beautiful packaging and the taste is great.

I've never reviewed Røtter?!?!?! Thanks Yelp for filling me in on this…read more I am at Røtter at least 2-3 times a week. Sometimes more. Never less. This IS my shop in Oslo. I'm not a huge fan of the Life stores or Helios, and part of the reason is the Røtter has EVERYTHING I need, and more. Upon moving to Norway, I had to drastically change my diet (I lived in Bergen). I couldn't find ANYTHING. And I had no job, so I couldn't have afforded it if the availability was there. Then I moved to Oslo. Oslo is still very behind in terms of food offerings, but it is lightyears ahead of Bergen. And fortunately for me, Røtter was here. Røtter takes requests and is always up on the latest products and trying their best to get them in the shop. Being American, they are constantly asking me for products I miss from the States (a lot of their customers are American) and looking for feedback. And they always give me updates on what they are getting in if they are grabbing ideas from the US. This makes me know that they care about the business and their customers. The shop itself is super inviting and cozy. I could spend hours perusing the place. The staff knows what they are talking about and has a passion for the products they sell. They are constantly receiving new products in, which keeps me going back (even though I spent thousands of $$ on stuff recently in the US and hauled it back with me). There is not much else I can say about this place except for the fact that it is incredible and will surely remain one of my Oslo highlights for a LONG, LONG time.
