Engebret Café, Heritage restaurant at Bankplassen, Norway

The restaurant occupies a corner building from 1760 at Bankplassen 1, featuring multiple dining rooms with period furnishings and traditional Norwegian cuisine.

Established in 1848 by Engebret Christoffersen, the restaurant relocated to its current location in 1863, making it the oldest continuously operating dining establishment in Oslo.

Notable artists including Henrik Ibsen, Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson, Edvard Grieg, and Edvard Munch frequented the restaurant, each maintaining their designated tables.

The restaurant provides seating for 240 guests indoors, with five private dining rooms available for events and an additional 100 seats in the garden during summer months.

Crown Princess Mette-Marit worked as a waitress at this establishment during the late 1990s before joining the Norwegian royal family.
