I am so happy I looked this place up ahead of time and that my husband and I went in. If you love…read morecraft beer (local, American) this is your place! It's a tap house with over 50 draft beer selections (including ciders and sours). They also have wine and bottled beer. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and I heard a ton of shuffleboard tables upstairs. The bar manager Pierce was so friendly and fun to talk to. He was insistent that you sample the beer before you order it- my kinda thing! We had a wonderful time and conversation with him. If you're in Oslo, don't skip this place!

We couldn't wait to try this place and it did not disappoint! Amazing beer selection and a solid…read morewine. We opened a tab, tried one of every IPA beer and enjoyed chatting with the bartender. If you love beer, then you do not want to miss this place. Would definitely return. No food and we mean no food except for a few bags of chips and nuts - there's more food options on an airplane so just be prepared.

As we were staying in the hotel, we decided to pop down for a drink. Their cocktails are formulated around art and music with fanciful concoctions based on iconic Scandinavia art (The Scream), literature (peer gint) and more. I tried the peer Gint and my wife a cocktail inspired by a folktale. Be sure to sit where you can watch the bar maestro mixing things up-its quite a show by itself. A bit pricey but very unique

Really shocked that Pier 42 doesn't have a billion 5-star reviews…read more Our second visit to Oslo and this bar, and they continue to prove why they're award winning. The service is impeccable with a staff who is very knowledgeable about the intricacies of the menu and super in tune with patrons. This bar has a very cool way of crafting drinks as an ode to the relationship between Norway and the United States. It's a beautiful science of all of the senses. We had every specialty drink on the menu (except the one with the gold coin). Some places have a hard time executing on really great drinks, service, AND ambiance... this place does it all with excellence. The drinks are high quality, intentional, and amazing. The food (we had the sliders) also caught us off guard with how good it was. From our seats at the bar, George was an incredible bartender! We're so excited to see how the menu continues to transform with the seasons, offering new and exciting cocktails. We will absolutely be back and recommend Pier 42 to anyone we can!

Gudruns is a good place to mix the club and the bar feeling. As it is in two floors you have one…read morebar downstairs and one upstairs. Upstairs there are tables and it is a bit more chill. One can sit and enjoy a drink there, where the music is not as loud making it easy to talk. The dancefloor is downstairs so one can dance with louder music there. There is also a patio where people can go to smoke with heat lamps. It has a nice interior in general with lots of wood which makes it quite warm. The problem is that you never know how many people are inside as you can't see in. So you might end up paying 100 nok and the place is empty. I have heard it's better on Saturdays and I was there on a Saturday and it was quite full.

Really laid back people and no champagne douches to find here :) Good music with many great international artists. Nice that you have a "main dancefloor" inside and another one outside in the backyard. Perfect vibe. btw, this bartender guy with long white dreads makes some nice drinks!

There is nothing wrong with this local bar at all, but its more of a subjective review…read more I like that its a bit eclectic and random. Location is only good for those living nearby, hence it being a bit far from city centre. It has some board games and darts. And a dead deer, which creeped me out a bit:P Price is what you can expect. I think you can bring your own food here, but I am not sure. Overall, ok place to go for a beer or a coffee, but I prefer other places, so its not a place I seek out unless I am nearby.

Emailed them several times. No response. Diner beware. You too can get screwed out of a reservation here if they feel like it. I suspect they found someone for our time who wanted the seafood dinner so they jettisoned us. I'd suggest you go elsewhere or you could be out in the cold. Never had this happen to me at any of the hundreds of places I've eaten. Gave them a bad Beli review.

Good way to attract customers for sure. Think they serve some pizzas. Only went for the beer, but dont know how it is. Good service. PS. You can book a table via Facebook.
