Groos kafe er en liten perle, som flere burde oppdage! En helt nydelig beliggenhet, selv nå,i november, er det herlig å nyte utsikten over sjøen! Greie smørbrød og småretter, har ikke prøvd å spise der,men her skal jeg tilbake! Greit å parkere,og ikke langt fra bussforbindelse! Hyggelig og hjelpsomme ansatte! Det ble en utrolig, Hyggelig opplevelse! Anbefales på det varmeste!

Quiet spot right on the beach. We ordered coffee, pizza and a small sandwich. The pizza is made fresh on location. The coffee is typical of what you’d see in Norway, and around $5. They have an outdoor patio that overlooks the ocean, very calm and beautiful spot to sit and enjoy your food. The staff were typical Norwegians, kind, and left you alone unless you needed something. They spoke Norwegian to me until they saw I didn’t speak the language and effortlessly changed to English.
