Torvet

The central square is the hub of Trondheim. Surrounded by shops and cafés, it is often used for events. There are also vendors with market stalls that sell tourist kitch and souvenirs, food, clothes, accessories and other items. Not to mention Trondheim Torg, which is one of the city's largest shopping malls- home to clothing stores, bookstores, and restaurants and cafes. At the center stands an 18-metre-high statue of King Olav Tryggvason, the founder of the city. It is also a functioning sundial.

Trondheim Torg
Smack in the middle of the city, this mall should be able to suit most of your needs. This mall especially has a few cafés.
Drink
Trondhjem Mikrobryggeriet
A brewery pub offering a range of beer brewed in-house (about six kinds plus a seasonal special). Prices for a 0.5L about 50% higher than elsewhere, but the only place in town to offer an IPA and a bitter from tap - along with the other four. Substantial food is served, too.

Grafen
A café and bar with a varied menu of foods. The restaurant reinvented itself into Grafen and now serves up a luxurious Mediterranean-style offering rather than the more fast-food offering it previously had. It has dishes like steamed mussels. They have an extensive beer, wine and cocktail list (including local artisanal beers) and a quite popular place for just going out for a drink. It is best to come in the evening when the menu is larger.
