Wasted 90 NOK, 2 hamburgers ordered with fries and they were good. Ordered 2 beers. Plenty of inside seating. See photos. I wouldn't come back here but they had American type food here and not Norwegian. Not than many places to eat in the shopping side of Bergen unless you want a coffee and a bread item. Also, go order at the bar and they will bring the food to you.

We fell into this place as we walked the Bryggen area. The food here is amazing. This place looks…read moremore like a bar, a stage in the back, a casual bar to the left. Don't let that discourage you from ordering food. I wish we would've taken a few pics. We ordered the fish and chips, the bbq bourbon wings and the chicken Caesar and the seafood salad. The salads by far were legit. Very very generous portions and lots of salmon and petit shrimp on the seafood salad. The pics on the menu don't do it justice. The service was friendly as well.

The natural surroundings make you feel relaxed and comfortable. The host and manager helped to procure us a window table with incredible views or the harbor and Bryggen in the late evening, before sunset. The area was a bit warmer than was ideal, but it was mostly impart to the intense evening sun coming in all the glass. Service that evening was subpar, but the food was all amazing! We ordered our first Norwegian fish soup and it was better than I ever could have imagined. Like the absolute best bouillabaisse you've yet to have. We also shared some mussels with frites(honestly just needed to be cooked a little bit longer), and delicious butter with bread.

They have a nice selection of beverages both with and without alcohol and a small menu. We got the fish soup, grilled sourdough bread and falafel salad.

My mother got it but it was too spicy for her, not sure what was spicy in it but her loss was my gain! Lovely fish in a coconut, lemongrass and lime broth. Visit the museums, stop in here for a bite and still have room for a big dinner later! Plus it won't break the bank to eat here!

It's all about the scampi in Bryggen. It topped every fish dish we ordered…read more The Seafood Pasta (186 NOK) was ok with garlic steamed scampi and #mussels in a tomato sauce. The Seafood Salad (184 NOK) was a little better with mussels, scampi, avocado and chives. I liked that it was fresh and light but again, it was nothing to write home about. The Salmon with Pesto (265 NOK) with saffron butter sauce and ratatouille was my favorite of the three. The salmon was moist. The mashed potatoes were flavourful, buttery and well spiced. But the ratatouille stole the show. Loved the mix of flavours in this peasant's dish. And of course, I had to try the Akvavit. I normally don't drink hard liquor but this went down so super easy. Light with a slight flavour of dill. Excellent! I was a bit disappointed that the scampi was rather flavourless given that it should be fresh in Scandinavian countries. I would probably pass on this restaurant.
