getting our after-breakfast Reindeer Sausage
Arnel E.

When in Bergen, you have to visit this little hotdog stand. They have a very wide range of sausages and toppings available but we were only two hours past a full bellied breakfast, so we decided to stick to the basics. We of course had their signature dish: The Reindeer sausage topped with lingonberry sauce, mustard, and crispy onions. The hype around this place is greatly deserved! The food is fresh, warm and delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful. Dining Style: It is a walk-up kiosk with no seating, restrooms, or table service. So be prepared to eat in the rainy Norwegian weather or walk back to your hotel or accommodation. If you cannot choose - I'd recommend a the reindeer hot dog with traditional toppings. With crazy working hours from 11am to 3-4 am, you can definitely grab a snack anytime of the day or night. Oh, and the hot dogs cost much more than three kroner like they originally did, back in 1946.

Not overrated. Of course I had to have the famous reindeer hot dog with crispy onions, mustard and lingonberry sauce. Could not tell it was reindeer. The casing was super snappy - a joy to bite into. Flavours were on point - the toppings went well with this hot dog. The weakest part of the hot dog was the bun - felt it fell apart too easily when eating. Take out and stand to eat! Definitely a must eat when in Bergen!!

This place seemingly always had a line - which is typically a good sign. Even in the drizzling rain we stood for a short time to grab a quick lunch on the go. While this is a simple meal - a hot dog/sausage - it can really hit the spot. They have some really unique options... our group each sampled a different. The one I tried had a "hot" chili sauce on it. I would DEFINITELY recommend this with the sausage that has cheese. The crispy onions add a wonderful touch to the fun flavors.

Reindeer, lingonberry, mustard & crispy onions
Teresa M.

Our first time to Norway so I did some research ahead of time. Trekroneren was at the top of my "quick cheap eats" list &, truthfully, I wish we'd gone here on day 1 instead of the funky wharf stands. Naturally, we had the reindeer sausage with lingonberry, mustard and crispy onions. It was possibly the favorite for our group on our Bergen stay. I love that they temp check. We stopped elsewhere and were served cold food- ew. Is it mind-blowingly unique? No, it's essentially sausage dogs but with some out of the norm protein & toppings. The beauty of it is that it's familiar, traditional & something new all at once, at a decent price & it's done RIGHT. The line moves fast, feel free to jump in it!

Basic dog with crispy onions
Shruti J.

We always saw a queue whenever we passed the area and this was a recommendation from our guide as well. I got the basic dog with mustard and ketchup and my husband got the reindeer dog which he really enjoyed. The line was worth it - we really enjoyed our dog here. Also this was one of the affordable places we ate at in Bergen.

Lamb sausage after the first bite
Lakshmi L.

Stumbled upon Trekroneren as we were wandering around the wharf and can confirm that the rumors are true. Easily the best hot dog in all of Norway. Significantly better than Syverkiosken in Oslo in size, meat options and toppings. We got the lamb sausage but walked away with some regret about not trying the reindeer. The fried onions topping somehow class up the humble hot dog. Recommend!

It's really just a hotdog stand, but a good one at that. You get to try different meat than the mysterious pink sludge they serve in the USA. I asked for a reindeer and to dress it "the way it should be" which was with the lingonberry sauce and mustard. Satisfying and made me want more... but honestly, it's a a just a hotdog stand. If you want a gourmet experience, book a nice restaurant. But for a quick tourist snack, this place is amazing, and the sausages are great quality.

large cheese dog
Mihir P.

really really good sausages! we got the reindeer sausage. it comes topped with juniper berries and fried onions. delicious! though I think I'd ask for a little less juniper next time. also true the large cheese dog. large is an understatement (see pic) they have a wide array of options and I could have honestly tried them all if time allowed for it. it's pricey, but what isn't in Norway?

Reindeer Sausage 99Kr

When in Bergen, one must try some local food so naturally, Reindeer sausage at this famous hot dog stand is a must. It does feel like other sausages - couldn't taste the Reindeer bit.

Kabanossi Sausage
Lawrence C.

As one of the most recommended food spots in Bergen, I have to say that it does live up to the hype! It's a small hotdog stand near the city center of Bergen, and when I went the line wasn't too long. They have a pretty extensive menu of hotdog meats to choose from ranging from Reindeer to Lamb so you can decide how adventurous you want to be. They also have a good variety of toppings that you can add to your hotdog as well. I decided to get the Kabanossi hotdog with some hot sauce on it as that was what the lady working there recommended. The size of the hotdog is great, as it's definitely filling and they don't skimp out on it. I also really enjoyed the quality of the sausage, and it is definitely up there in terms of hotdogs that I have ever tried. With the hot sauce and crispy onions added onto it, it's a burst of flavor in your mouth. This is definitely a must-eat place if you ever visit Bergen!

We passed by this spot on the way to a couple of excursion meeting points. Seemed to get busier as the day progressed and we did see some long lines. We ended up visiting later around 9:30 on a Sunday evening-luckily no queue. A stand with an abundant amount of Hot Dog/Sausage choices. Quality Sausages are made especially for this spot by a local Butcher. I wasn't sure which one to get (about 15 varieties) so the kind Gentleman steered me to the Wild Game sausage. He suggested the toppings-Chili sauce, mustard and crispy onions. Delicious! Not an inexpensive Hot Dog at about $10 USD but well worth it. Helpful and friendly people behind the counter. They've been around for 75 years and were recommended as the only Hot Dog stand you should visit in Bergen. We agree!

Here is the outside so you don't get the wrong place.

Great service and fast if the line is long, WAIT. We were here on Norway's Constitution day. The line was very long. We asked a couple who were just finishing up their hot dogs if the line was worth the hype and their reply was YES, they are the best! We were not disappointed. We had the reindeer hotdog and the cheese hotdog; both are excellent.

I was walking around with my parents after eating a bit at the fish market. We saw a bunch of people walking by with hot dogs and I started to follow where they came from. I hadn't heard of this place but after seeing that they offered reindeer sausage and how many people were buying it I had to try it. I was lucky that there wasn't a wait when I got there. The reindeer sausage is great! I think the lingonberry pairs really well with it. I wasn't sure what I was expecting since I hadn't had reindeer before but I'm glad I saw crowds of people with it.

In fact I think our server was the owner, and he let us know that his wife was the cook (after we complimented our meals). Prices are very reasonable and there is a nice selection of fish and meat dishes. My husband and I shared the pork belly taco (appetizer) and the fish and chips plate. Our friend ordered the last available flank steak. Everything came out timely and was delicious! There was enough food to go around and no one left hungry. I'm really glad that our friend stumbled upon this restaurant. It was not crowded and had a lovely evening atmosphere for our last evening in town.

A few helpful hints: Ask the bartender for a menu, take a seat and then head back up to the bar to place your order. They have a pitcher of water at the end of the bar with glasses so no need to add an extra expense for bottled water. Remember on Sunday a bar or restaurant is the only spot you will get alcohol so don't think you can grab some beer at the Kiwi or Rema and drink at home/hotel. I got the herring with lingonberries which sounded weird to me but after the first bite I was sold!! I cleaned the whole plate with ease because it was so good. The prices are affordable compared to other spots in Norway so assure you go downstairs because the menu and prices are different.

Nice dining room with painted murals and a homey atmosphere. We had great service and the food came out quickly. They are known for the reindeer entree and the Fiskesuppe (fish soup). I had a salad (huge; with a very good mustard dressing) and the Fiskesuppe. The fish soup was creamy and flavorful. My husband had the lamb shank with root vegetables and mashed potatoes.

As anticipated, it was completely full, but surprisingly, we only had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. I had read that the fish soup (appetizer) is a must-try, though the mussels and their burger were super popular that night and looked delicious too. + FISH SOUP: The four of us ordered just one bowl to share as a starter and it was creamy, almost like a chowder! There wasn't a ton of seafood, just a few fish balls and small shrimp, but we still enjoyed the flavor. It came with paper-thin crackers and butter on the side. + PAN-FRIED WOLFFISH: Two thick, moist pieces of wolffish were served in a pool of creamy white wine sauce alongside broccolini and small shrimp. All fish and meat dishes include a choice of potatoes. I selected the dauphinoise (sliced potatoes with heavy cream and garlic) which was so rich and buttery! My sister ordered the slow-cooked LEG OF DEER with baked root vegetables, mashed potatoes, and port wine sauce. The deer was so tender and a sizable portion. She selected the mashed potatoes which were creamy and smooth. My mom got the filet of NORWEGIAN LAMB with seasonal vegetables, mushrooms, baked cherry tomatoes and red wine herb sauce. Of the main courses we all ordered, I considered this my favorite plate. Normally I am not a huge fan of lamb, but it was cooked to a perfect medium and didn't have much gaminess at all. Also super tender! The service was very friendly, but after we received our soup, we waited almost one hour for our main courses. Since the soup was a starter, our waitress asked if we wanted to eat it first or with our meal, so had we known there would be such a large gap between courses, we would have opted to just have everything together. The timing is really my only critique. This was a terrific hearty meal after a full day of travel. Beginning our trip with dinner at such a renowned local spot set our vacation off on the right foot!

Location: In the heart of Bergen and easily walkable if you're staying in the center…read more The place: It reminds me of a super modern, partially hipster-y cafeteria. Great decor - semi minimal but warm and cozy. I dig it. The goods: After eating random Icelandic cuisine for a few days, I was really looking for something light. I order the chicken salad and it was delicious! The greens were fresh, the check was tender, and the whole damn thing was full of flavour. The dressing was similar to a Caesar dressing, which appealed to me less but it was good nonetheless. I got some raspberry juice and that was a lovely treat. Great little spot to check out if you're in Bergen. Service: OK. Price point: All I know is that shit is expensive in Norway. Especially if, like me, you're coming from Canada. Our dollar generally sucks! That said, this didn't break the bank (I don't think... ).

After exploring the University of Bergen, we walked a short distance to Marg & Bein for an early…read moredinner around 3:00P. Because we dined during an off-time, we had the whole restaurant to ourselves, though I imagine it gets busier during peak hours. Our waitress sat us by the window and recommended sharing a few plates family-style. (Note: The menu may rotate.) For anyone who wants their own meal, they do have a main dish that is meant for a single serving. That day, it was the Persetorsk fish with pea purée, cider butter sauce and trout roe. My dad ordered it and thought the fish was good, but found the sauce quite salty (and not just from the roe). + BRAISED OX CHEEK: Super tender, lean, succulent. It fell apart with just a touch of a fork! Served on top of smooth mashed potatoes and a flavorful demi-glace. + STEAK w/ PEPPER SAUCE: My favorite dish! The steak was cooked to a perfect medium and the pepper sauce was subtle, allowing the quality of the beef to shine. I enjoyed alternating bites of it alone and with the baked onion. The broccolini had a great crunch and the celery purée added a fresh, earthy balance. + BAKED CAULIFLOWER: The most flavorful cauliflower that I've ever had! Roasted sections came topped with finely chopped kale chimichurri (mixed with onion, spices & pepitas), all sitting on a cauliflower purée. So good and a perfect vegetarian dish! + CIDER STEAMED MUSSELS: Plump, sweet mussels served in a velvety, slightly briny cider sauce. I couldn't help but drink a couple spoonfuls of the sauce by itself after we finished the mussels. Our waitress was very friendly and we appreciated her help with navigating the menu. The dishes were served at a comfortable pace with the mussels first as a starter, followed by the rest of the dishes. I would consider the pricing to be on the elevated side since it's considered an upscale modern bistro, however it's definitely worth splurging for their creative and well-executed plates. We found Marg & Bein on a whim, and it ended up being one of our top meals in Bergen! 4.75 stars.
