We will be spending a few days in Oslo in July-August time frame, and I am just now beginning to do some research. I have come across the island ferry in the fjord that makes a circuit of 5 islands very close to Oslo, like line B1 or B2, a one hour circuit of the 5 islands. This little jaunt intrigues me, and I am wondering if there are any cute/quaint little restaurants/sandwich places at any of the stops. (Lindoya has been mentioned.) I am envisioning an idyllic day cruising the islands, with a brief stop at one of them for a nice little lunch along side the shore. We are not hikers (age), but short walks on relatively flat ground is ok. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

In summer a few of such places are open on each island, but it's mostly the outdoors there, so there's toilets, and something like a kiosk. You can check yourselves for those islands. I think only Bleikøya has something like what you're describing. If you take the ferry across to Bygdøya you'll have more infrastructure. Here's the routes: baat-linjekart-01112021.pdf
