We enquired about bowling, which was quite busy and we had to wait a while to get a lane. Advice from the people there is that it can be a good idea to book a lane ahead of time. Nevertheless, we weren't on a schedule so happily played pool until a lane become available. All in all, a fun night. Friendly atmosphere and people of all ages there.

Wow! Really cozy for a bowling alley. Full bar service and many nice seating areas for the…read morenon-players. They also have a room with plenty of pool tables. Unfortunately no pinball machines. Free wifi.

We especially enjoyed the veiled chameleon - it was fascinating the way that the eyes moved independently and reminded us of Miss Crawly from the movie Sing. We were also able to hold a large snake. The menacing 5 foot Cuvier's dwarf caiman (crocodile) eerily stared at us with his head just above the water and the rest of his body submerged. We spent about 30 minutes enjoying all the rare creatures but it felt overpriced as it was about twice the cost of the National Museum but this may be the going rate for activities in Oslo.

This is one of the most bewildering "tourist" sites I have ever come across. Really it should…read moreprobably be ignored, but I feel it's my Yelp duty to warn fellow travellers who may also be tempted by all the other 5 star reviews. It's a set of very uninteresting stairs, in a "edgy" looking area, with a rubbish view at the top and the highlight of a couple of very low key wolf type statues at the bottom. This is not something that in anyway should be called a tourist site and if it is classified as that then it should be about 400 on the list of landmarks worth seeing. There is literally loads of statues across Oslo that are way more interesting that the ones at the bottom of these crappy stairs. Scraping the bottoms of the barrel of tourist attractions, one to avoid for sure.

This location is one of the biggest I've seen. The red room has treads lining two walls and seemingly endless benches. They have an additional weight/equipment room where I saw people doing 1:1 personal training sessions. As an American, I asked that part of the class be translated into English and Ragna, my instructor for the day, flawlessly incorporated English translation with the Norwegian instructions. I was there on abs day and the range of exercises that worked every part of the abs really had me feeling it for two days after. The locker room is fairly big, fair warning, the shower stalls have no doors, so you're pretty exposed, but that also helps ensure no one's hogging the shower.

Definately the place to combine your tempo-runs to strenght training. If you want a a-class body,…read moreshow up at Barry's.
