Credo Bakeriet and Nasjonalbibliotekbaren

Street food

Trondheim chef Heidi Bjerkan moved Credo into the National Library, with a bakery that bakes with ancient grains and reinterprets traditional cakes; Vink calls its counter one of the most tempting in the city and singles out the kvæfjordkake.

Good to know

  • Order the kvæfjordkake ('verdens beste') with coffee in the second-floor library bar.
  • Big tables and reading-room calm: Mer av Oslo recommends it for working or studying, but sockets are few.
  • At fastelavn you can pre-order its cream buns made with landhvete flour (Vink, 2026).
