Vegansk means vegan. VisitOSLO notes that many Oslo restaurants cater to meat-free and plant-based diets: some specialize in them, while others treat vegetable dishes as a normal part of the menu.1 Many cafés offer milk alternatives: ask for soyamelk or mandelmelk, soy or almond milk.2

The fully plant-based cafés are spread across the city: a sourdough micro bakery in Tøyen, an all-plant coffee bar and wine bar on Urtegata, organic brunch at Schweigaards gate and Oslobukta, and raw-food and cookie cafés on the west side in Frogner and Skillebekk.

Local tip: For a plant-based breakfast, Papegøye on Urtegata opens at 07:00 on weekdays; KUMI’s brunch on Schweigaards gate starts at 10:00.

Where these cafés are: Frogner & Majorstuen (7), Sentrum (4), Grünerløkka (3), St. Hanshaugen & Bislett (3), Grønland & Tøyen (3), Aker Brygge, Tjuvholmen & Bjørvika (2), Gamlebyen, Kampen & Vålerenga (1).
