Melkebaren

Many locals will direct you to Melkebaren to sample the møsbrømslefse, a local specialty of cheese melted on flatbread. The extremely popular café has an outdoor terrace and baristas adept at making various types of coffee, including the cortados and lattes you know from back home. There's a wide range of pastries, including tasty cinnamon buns and macarons. The cozy and intimate interior makes the perfect escape from Bodø's winter weather.
