Café Art'é

Café Art'é is an intimate resort, with a kitchen predominantly inspired by Italian cucine. It’s located in the venerable St. Olavs gt. 7 where it shares facilities with Gallery Frie Kunster. The Gothic revival style building was constructed by  the German architect Von Hanno, who brought it to completion in 1873. Von Hanno and his family kept residence in the second floor of the building. It is rummored that the famous Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun was a tenant of the building’s loft apartment during his residence in Christiania ( Oslo ). St Olavs gt. Extends from St Olavs plass, in which lived Ylajali, the love interest of Hamsun’s book “Hunger”.
