With all the wooden tables and creaking floors it has a real Pub vibe and, should you fancy a wee dram of Scotch, it sits next door to a bar (previously a Tapas restaurant) that specialises in the aqua vitae!! All in all, well worth a visit and a minor point but, be wary of the changes in floor levels as you toddle about,. The trip hazard is directly proportional to your alcohol intake ratio so "Mind the Step". Don't say you weren't warned.

It's a pub located in the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel in Oslo. It's a sports bar with Irish beers and…read morelocal micro brews as well. The menu tries to be Irish and works but the portions are small. It's priced ok and not very expensive for Oslo. I had their Christmas beer and it was quite nice. A local micro brew. I ordered the fish and chips with mushy peas. You got about one tablespoon of mushy peas which was quite tasty and a small bartered fish with chips. Taste was ok but the portion quite small and I could have easily eaten two of them ;-) Service is good and friendly. I may come here again but given the choice in the area will look around. It's an area with lots of ethnic restaurants so choices are plenty for reasonable prices.

First, this is not an Irish pub. There's an Irish flag drooping in the corner, they have Guinness…read moreon Nitro, and a food menu that tries to sort of be Irish, but it pretty much ends there. That having been said, service is very friendly, good aquavit! They have music on the speakers which is pretty hilarious, it's all classic American rock/country (REM, Steppenwolf, Tom Petty, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc). Galway Bay tradition it is not. Also, quite expensive, but then again it's Oslo. Good space, plenty of comfy tables and booths. Unlike the bar in the hotel lobby, where they ignore you until you decide to walk up to the bar and order, this place has a sign suggesting to go up to the bar to order *and* they also come to your table to check on you when you sit down. Well done.

Pier 42 is the hip cocktail bar located in the lobby of the Ameriklinjer hotel across from the Oslo…read morecentral train station. 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!

Looking for a drink on our last night in Norway. Stopped by this pub…read more It was an interesting theme. With some themed drinks and decorations. The music even seems to match the vibe. The bartender was nice and spoke English. I got the spritz and my mom got Mr. Hyde's Boulevard. Mine was refreshing. My mom's was pretty strong. Good atmosphere, but lacking something. Maybe the liveliness wasn't exactly there, but might have been because it was a Monday, but the soccer game win made me think it would be a bit busier.

When we entered the Whisky Bar I figured it was a local bar with your standard 12 year scotch and bourbons. But when I we pulled up to the bar I was in wonder. Almost all the shelves, to the ceiling were full of some of the finest whiskeys. There was scotches that I rarely see, and some Irish whiskeys I had been hoping to try. I started by asking for a rare scotch, from the Ben Nevis distillery. Yep they had it, including a single barrel batch 2nd option from there. I was surprised. And immediately ordered one, neat. After that i glanced at the menu and saw a A'bunadh. This one it tough to get state side as well. We only planned to stop by for one quick, but I had To have a pour of the good stuff. We left, with me wishing we had more time to appreciate such a fine bar. We will be back soon enough.

Since it is part of a hotel, the restaurant is located on the 2nd Fl and you simply walk in and seat yourself. Don't worry, they won't let you walk out without paying, you just pay at the end. Food: 4/5 There was a great selection of various hot and cold breakfast items. The quality of the food is apparent in the deliciousness. Some of my favorites were the waffles, homemade granola & yogurt, fruit jams, and juice shots. They also have a great selection of tea and coffee which you order with the server. Service: 5/5 Impeccable service, as expected from such a fancy hotel. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Atmosphere: 5/5 Super nice toilets and cool art/furniture throughout the hotel. Value: 3/5 At around ~25€ per person, it wasn't particularly cheap but this is Norway and you can eat as much as you want. So if you sit here for an hour or two, it'll be worth the price of entry.

Ideal for evening sun, but for the Oslo Fjord views you need to book a private event in the terrace on the opposite side of the roof. Great service and good drinks, prices are as expected.

What a local, hidden gem! It has been around a while but why on earth haven't I checked it out?…read more Very cosy atmosphere, great window seats and the cutest bartender. It reminds of a British pub with dark wood and flowerish wallpaper. Check the random pictures on the wall! They serve Indian food that I will try very soon. I could give 5 stars but only wish was more beer on tap. They have more than 30 decent bottles of beer and a great Irish coffee according to my dear parents. Great with a local pub with atmosphere and none of that inner city madness on a Saturday night

The place itself is a typical looking pub with the old wooden tables and old looking chairs. Lots of wood and a bit dark. The average age of the people in the quiz night was around 40 but it might be that other days there are younger people. They had some big screens so if you like watching football it can be a good bar for you. Not my piece of cake though.
