Cute cafe along Fargegaten, The Street of Colors…read more When a local Stavanger hairdresser wanted to infuse a pop of color into this street who knew that he would create a tourist attraction? This cute cafe is so cozy and inviting. Love the colors, the books and the board games. Coffeeshop by day. Bar at night. A great place to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea with family and friends.

The bar has plant-themed wallpaper and both fake and real plants scattered about the bar. They also have both indoor and outdoor seating available. They offer mostly premade cocktails, but they do have a few basic options available. They also have a fairly wide draft beer selection and a decent selection of board games to play. If you want to play games and drink beer in Stavanger, then I think Bøker og Børst is the place!

They have a nice patio area, but it's hard to comfortably seat more than 4 people out there. The interior has a nice view into the kitchen and lots of natural light. For wine, they had a blaufrankish on the menu, which was a nice surprise. The house bread is a country loaf that had a good crust and a nice softer / chewy center. They had a lunch special - a la carte or as a meal (with dessert and a salad). The meal is definitely a better deal - NOK180 a la carte vs NOK250 for the whole meal. We tried the bolinius (salt cod fritters) with pea purée and a cauliflower couscous, both of which were unique/good. Sandwiches are all open faced, served on rye with a slather of aioli. You can get 2 for NOK180 or 3 for NOK240. - Steak: topped with an onion ring; the meat texture was a little tough - Beef tartare: fresh, but a little under salted - Shrimp with egg: the yolk was still nice and runny - Fried cod: nicely fried Food took a little longer than expected (it was fairly empty at lunch), but everything was pretty solid. Service was helpful, friendly,and unpretentious.

I was fortunate to get a table for the dropping in line and didn't wait more than 15 minutes. This establishment is a fish market as well as a restaurant. Moderate prices for this region And super fresh. I had the links fish fillet with a Bernaise sauce and king crab. Ironically, the starter cost more than the entrée. I'm giving it the highest review because of the freshness and the laid back dining experience. My bill came out to 100 US without drinks. Most people are happy with an entrée with a catch of The day, $45 US.

We decided to sit inside. I love the decor. Outside is nice too as it's right across from the water. I actually knew what I wanted - the fish soup. No need to even look at the menu. The bread with our meal was delicious. My dining partner's fish dish perfect. The real star is the soup. The broth is heavenly. I could drink just the broth and be happy but it's also packed with fish, mussels and shrimp. It's like a never ending bowl of the most amazing fish and broth. So fresh. I left feeling so good after eating it. I'll go back next time for it. Popular place and a popular dish as I saw many bowls leaving the kitchen.

Chef Sven Erik Renaa runs three restaurants in this complex, fast casual, a bistro and then the flagship tasting menu spot that is Re-Naa.

You then come full circle for the petit fours, caffeine and after dinner spirits back in the orangeriet. Only the beat local producers are highlighted on the menu. It was great to see some of the great ingredients the locale of Stavanger had to offer and with seafood being simply amazing.
