Nobel Bopel
Nobel Bopel – the taste of Møhlenpris. Here you’ll find a charming neighbourhood café and vintage shop in one. With its unique combination of food, reuse and cultural events, Nobel Bopel offers a distinctive, welcoming and laid-back café experience.
Charming Atmosphere and Retro Interior
The café is painted in lively colours and furnished with retro furniture from the 60s and 70s, where everything you see – from chairs and lamps to cups and vases – is for sale. This means the interior could look completely different each time you visit, depending on how quickly items find new homes. You might sip your coffee at a kitchen table that once belonged to a sweet old grandmother, all while browsing for unique vintage treasures to take home. The friendly and inviting vibe, paired with mellow indie tunes and characterful vintage sofas, creates a homely atmosphere that appeals to students, families and pensioners alike.
Inclusive Meals Made from Local Ingredients
At Nobel Bopel, the menu is thoughtfully crafted to cater to vegans, vegetarians and meat-lovers alike – all based on local and sustainable ingredients. Dishes include sweet potato hummus, cured ham, fresh bread, and a vegetarian sharing brunch that can easily be made vegan. Pop by and taste the quality and care that goes into each dish.
A Space for Culture and Community
The café is also known as a cultural meeting place for the local community, regularly hosting music, art and film events. Every Thursday, the popular "Mohlenquiz" pub quiz draws neighbours, students and regulars of all ages – helping to foster a strong sense of community and giving the place a vibrant, homely feel.
An Idealistic Spirit with Local Roots
Behind Nobel Bopel is a team of passionate founders with a strong desire to create something lasting and meaningful. The café is run on idealistic principles, with a focus on quality, community and environmental responsibility – and has become a symbol of sustainability and social engagement in Bergen. What began as a second-hand shop has grown into a local gem, blending food, culture and environmental awareness in truly inspiring ways.
With its unique mix of homely retro charm, quality-conscious cuisine and cultural events, Nobel Bopel is far more than just a café – it’s a living community in the heart of Møhlenpris. You’re warmly invited to enjoy many cosy, unpretentious moments at Nobel Bopel!
