"Had Ice Fuglen coffee. As usual it’d good.
They do not have their Norwegian wafers like in Japan. Only light pastries.
But it’s a good stop to rest abit before on the go again. Especially when the weather is hot.
The staff were very very nice."

"It’s not uncommon that you learn a lot about an area by the experience you have at a coffee shop, but the Fuglen staff took it to another level. Literally everyone made sure we had a good time and talked to us about our trip - we even exchanged some of our favorite restaurants, cafes, and musical artists! Excellent coffee and evening drinks. Sit at the counter and meet the wonderful team! Will be back!"
Greg Karakashian
"What I love about fuglen is that Fuglen maintains a casual atmosphere that sets it apart from many cocktail bars.
On top of that, you can get the classic cocktails done WELL, in addition to amazing Fuglen cocktails for when you want to try something unique.
The staff are friendly and happy to chat, and other guests seem to embrace this, as it always seems to be a very social atmosphere at Fuglen.
The music is always good too!"
