The science park cafe

Our kitchen offers food that is naturally prepared from scratch, with a dedication to good, seasonal ingredients. These ingredients are harvested, fermented, grown, dried or preserved in various ways to create the tastiest and most exciting dishes.

Our chefs introduce three new dishes to the menu every week, giving our loyal guests constantly new surprises. At the same time, we work actively with sustainability. What really distinguishes Vitenparken from other places is that every week we base our menu on what can be harvested in our own kitchen garden, "VitenEnga".

Plus, we have regular items on our menu, including the plant-based Beyond Burger, the famous Smash burger from Science Park, Haloumi Sandwich, our delicious baguettes that are the best food on campus, and more.

We maintain close cooperation with local farms and use their produce as much as possible. In addition, we collaborate with other players known for their quality.

We also offer freshly made pastries, hot and cold drinks, as well as a wonderful atmosphere in this beautiful area.
