Who we are
The Paris of the North, Tromsø, is all about champagne and spectacles they say. Back
then, they would get fancy clothes from Paris, today tremendous food!
Nordens Paris is putting on the Ritz! Bringing you the charm of Montmartre on wheels with
our multiple streetfood trolleys.
Paris has its quartier latin, la Courneuve, Montmartre and the likes, where one can
experience Mediterranean, Indian and Chinese culture just one arrondissement away, so
why not creating a unique food culture on each trolley above the Actic?
That way, one can have dumplings for lunch, crêpes or waffles for dessert, and why not
a soup for dinner ? Luckily, Tromsø is small enough that you can actually walk
from one trolley to the next without getting lost on google maps.
Whatever the budget and the tooth you have, we are sure to have something tasty to keep
you warm during your polar exploration.
How we think
Three things matter to us: ensuring all dietary requirements are catered for,
that our products are sourced as locally as possible and that our carbon
footprint remains sufficiently low.
Whether you are a vegan, vegetarian or a meat fanatic, we have you sorted.
We are a sort of hybrid and versatile version of the best possible worlds
where everybody can enjoy streetfood in town.
And, last but not least, in order to offset the transport carbon emission, we
burn energy by pushing our food carts by hand. This way we keep fit and
healthy for the coming summer season!
Where to find us
Our business hours depend heavily on the weather conditions, but as much
as mother nature allows us to do so, we try to remain open every day from
early November to the end of March in Tromsø sentrum, from noon to about
6pm.
Track us here on the map so you can see in real time which trolley is open
and where to find it at a glance.

What we offer
Nordens Paris
Crêpes
Satisfy your sweet tooth with our gourmet crepes! Freshly made on the streets of Tromsø, these delicate delights are filled with everything from classic sugar and lemon to rich Nutella and fresh berries. A perfect treat for any time of the day.
Vaffelhuset
Waffles
Indulge in the warmth of our freshly baked waffles in our Art nouveau style trolley, a Nordic favorite not to miss out! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and served with a variety of sweet toppings like traditional brown cheese (brunost) and sour cream or just plain chocolate. A true taste of comfort on the go in our Metrololitan café that will make you forget about the coldness of the north.
Dolce
Ice-cream
Cool off in summer time with our handcrafted soft-served ice creams, perfect for those sunny Tromsø days! We offer either vanilla, strawberry or a blend of both, served either in a cup or a waffle style cone.
Sherpatrappa
Dumplings
Take your taste buds on a journey with our authentic Nepali style dumplings, also called « momos ». The hike that leads to the cable car « Fjellheisen » has been made by a bunch of Sherpas from Nepal. As a souvenir to their hard work, that same hike has been called « Sherpatrappa » after them, the Sherpas path.
Masala chaï
Indian Spicy Tea
Our chaï has became the local brew that got just as popular as coffee. The perfect warm up drink infused with a blend of selected spices and ginger, our chai is the perfect pick-me-up. Pair it with one of our snacks or enjoy it on its own as you explore the city.
Finnmarks ekspressen
Soup bar
Our Finnmarks Ekspressen is the train ride that has never existed, only as a 100years long political debate that has led to nowhere. You can't board the train all the way to the end of the world, but you can have a bowl of warm soup and get the feeling of how it would have been to undertake such journey! Reindeer, fish or veggie/vegan, you should be able to feel your fingers again very soon. Add some croutons and a bit of greated cheese and the experience is complete ! Combined with a glass of muld wine, what a better way to enjoy winter !
