Bakklandet Skydsstation
The place to find one of Trondheim's best seafood collections, such as a herring buffet and baccalao (dried or salted cod). The restaurant is quite small with around ten small tables, so you might want to come a bit outside regular dining times to get a seat.

Famous for their pizza buffet (everyday for people that arrive before 6pm), they also offer a vast menu of different options.

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.

Kvilhaugen gård
If you venture out of the centre to get your beer, make it here. Wonderful outdoor seating with views of most of Trondheim. Inside, it's an old farmhouse with plenty of atmosphere. It's also a restaurant with mains from kr 150-300 from the à la carte menu as well as four different 3-course menus starting from around kr 550 per person.
