There were a couple of bottled ales available, but with my spirit of adventure high on my first ever visit to Sweden I went for Norrelands Guld from tap as it was the only beer I had not previously heard of. It made for a perfectly decent pint of lager. The toilets were charmingly labeled 'Fanny's place' and Willy's place'.

Probably one of my favourite summer hangouts in Halmstad. The location is to die for, it's placed…read morejust along the river Nissan (and actually ON the river with some of the docks) and you can basically dangle your legs over the water. I have eaten here and the food was ok, nothing to write home about, but going here for a few drinks with friends, admiring the view is worth a lot. The staff is friendly and the interior is very Swedish summerhousy (yes, I made that word up) with white furniture, table cloths and a lot of bright colours. The beer and wine selection is limited, it's quite a small "bar" but they do have an IPA and a pilsner from Gotland on tap and some more bottled drinks. Last time we were here it was late at night plus there was a super moon out and we sat on the dock just centimeters above the water, nothing can beat that feeling. So if you're in Halmstad during summer, this is the place to go!

To my knowledge the only pub / restaurant in town that offer beer that doesn't make you fall asleep…read moreof boredom and lack of variation. ;) They have a variety of different lagers, ales and weissbeer and the assortment is changing from time to time which sometimes makes for some nice surprises. They do have some interesting beer / spirits tastings now and again which you should try and fit in your schedule if you are in the area, which I think takes place on saturday afternoons. Enough about the beer. Even though their menu sometimes can feel a bit static it does change from time to time and the food they have on offer is usually of high quality. My recommendation is to try the mussels or any of the risottos since they have been the dishes that seem to be quite consistent in quality. Even though I really appreciate the fact that they offer a vegetarian alternative, since I don't eat meat, the quorn filets are usually quite dry. Go with a salad or another veggie option instead. Sometimes live bands (more in the line of a lone singer songwriter covering famous tunes) play but it is not something to write home about. They have screens were they sometimes show football and on certain days they do music quizzes.

Even if you're not into pool this is a nice place to hang out with plenty of tables and a nice interior. The staff is really friendly and their selection of beer is all right. A good alternative to the more mainstream alternatives like O'learys where it can get a bit impersonal. As a small treat, try out their canned Guinness, yes I said canned. They have this device that will prepare the Guinness in front of your so you get that perfect crown. Quite a fun experience!
