I must say that I came here because of the high ranking in a story I read about the to 50 bars in the world. It is good. Is it top ten in the world? Hmm. You be the judge.

A must for lovers of rock and authentic pubs. This pub has been here for a long time and whereas…read moreits clientel has changed, the pub has not. Well, some stayers have frequented this place the last 20years. A relationship that has lasted longer than their marriage, probably. You go here if you like to show that you like rock and if you don't care about showing nothing at all. The latter are not the hipsters ;) It used to be packed, but the hip factor has cooled off. Good! The interior is not. Which is part of the whole atmosphere. And the pictures- epic shots of old rock heroes, make many of us nostalgic and remembering when we were in our 20s. Oh well. The only minus is the selection of beer. Hansa on tap. Come on! A tourist or a new inhabitant? You just gotta have a beer here. Period.

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.

The restaurant is very conveniently located next to the train station and opera house, and is accessible through the hotel lobby. Food is well-priced for Norwegian standards.

Wow! We came all the way from Gothenburg, Sweden to explore this place because of the pinball…read moremachines! We were not disappointed by the machines nor the beer selection! Pretty pricey though! Smaller glass than at your regular place. There is one bar, and it is located when you come in. This is also were the cool game tables are (yes, they are working - except for one at least when we were there). The same girl was working both Saturday and Sunday when they opened at 15.00. Super friendly! This place is so cool. To get the most out of it you probably must be a gamer. But, because of the super satisfying selection of beer - I guess being a beer lover is enough. But, according to the earlier reviews - I guess anyone into retro will be satisfied! All the other reviews have already told you about the interior and decor. Not many has talked about the pinball machines though. All together there are 10 - The Addams family, Family Guy, White Water, Scared Stiff (out of order), Tales of the Arabian Nights, Medieval Madness, Indiana Jones, The Shadow, World Poker Tour and Batman. It is NOK10 per credit (even if you are two playing). You buy tokens in the bar.On Sunday they have this deal - you get free plays when you buy beer or drinks in the bar. Fewer tokens for soft drinks though. But, we were lucky, we even got some extra free plays when telling about our crazy tour around Oslo. I was surprised how few people were there on a Saturday and Sunday afternoon. More games for us to play! It is definitely worth the trip if you're a pinhead or even wannabe pinhead and want to try out some different machines! Check out my list for more places with pinball machines. Unfortunately no AMEX and no wifi.

So there are bars and there are fun bars. Tilt definitely belongs to the second category. It is…read moresuch a hip place to be, with all sorts of people where you can play table shuffleboard and all kinds of electronic games. We had a 2,5 hour shuffleboard fun on a Monday night. At 18:00 when we arrived the place was half empty. By the time we were leaving it was packed of people and no shuffleboard tables were available. I think there were 6 tables all in all. So if you want to play, you need to be there early or you need to wait for someone to leave. The game is quite simple in its rules, but very hard to master. It is very hard to control the little round ball called puck. The puck slides very smoothly on the sandy table so you really need to master how much strength you need to use to send it to the other end without it falling off the table. The only negative side to the bar was the price of the beer. However it was a Christmas beer I chose and I guess beer generally in Oslo is expensive. I payed for mine 145nok so I would suggest you to check the price menu before you order. On the bar side there are tables for people to hangout and have a beer. You can sit on the couches that have as a table an electronic game. So while hanging out with your friends one can always play. I definitely suggest Tilt for at least a one time experience to everyone as shuffleboard is a lot of fun!

After being politely shown the door on our first visit, stating no kids after 7 pm, we were told to…read morereturn the next day before 7, to try out their cocktails (and also to checkout the view) from their rooftop. Its a pretty difficult sell for a rooftop bar to a New Yorker, but then every rooftop also tells a story! And what a wonderful story it was! Nestled on the Eight floor of Grand Hotel, is this really well decorated rooftop bar with an amazing menu. A pretty fancy menu explains the different flavor profiles to order from along with ABV's - something we never saw on a cocktail menu! Docking one star only because they couldn't make the cocktail that I really wanted - a Rum Old Fashioned. Tried The Etoile (Penicillin) instead, which was very nice too and so was the counting sheep (Whiskey Sour). The views on a rainy/overcast day were pretty good too and we could only imagine how spectacular summer days in Oslo could be from this rooftop! Service was good, noise levels on the lower end. The Frosta Chips were tasty!
