About

GRØD

Features
Read full description

This app is for all our loyal guests, who we love to spoil with extra benefits, surprises and special events. Since 2011, we’ve been redefining what porridge is and can be when made with a nerdy focus on quality. At GRØD we serve everything from classic oat porridge, smoothie bowls and overnight oats to savoury dishes such as Congee, Daal and Risotto.
