No. 1 in the Nordics

Tim Wendelboe

Small specialty coffee bar and roastery run by a former World Barista Champion, with a few tables and a queue that often reaches the street. Light-roast filter coffees are explained bean by bean, alongside the Cappuccino al Freddo served in a martini glass.

Highlights

  • Cappuccino al Freddo
  • Finca El Puente filter
  • Light-roast single-origin filters

Good to know

  • Queues of 30 minutes or more are common
  • Very few seats, not for lingering
  • No food and no decaf
