The catch of the day often dictates the menu here, but crispy cod tongue is always available. For less adventurous eaters, there's also a variety of pasta dishes.

You'll feel right at home in this lovely restaurant in an elegant 200-year-old log farmhouse three miles from Brønnøysund, and its equally beautiful garden. Along with the wood-paneled, tapestry covered dining room, the Angel Lounge's cozy chairs are perfect for enjoying coffee and dessert, and the Aquavit Bar invites you to sip a glass of wine at your leisure. Traditional gourmet fare is lovingly prepared with herbs and produce from a charming kitchen garden, which you are encouraged to enjoy while touring the beautifully landscaped grounds.

The restaurant encourages diners to call ahead with any special dietary requests and is especially welcoming to children.
If it's mushroom season, your plate will be awash with chanterelles and fresh herbs; there will always be something pickled, and if you're lucky some local wild salmon or roast pork or goat cheese. There are salads, savory pancakes, tarts, and open sandwiches that almost distract you from the on-site bookshop and library.
A spacious outdoor terrace and seafront location with unparalleled views over the harbor and distant mountains assure Bryggerikaia a steady clientele.

There's live entertainment in the bar on weekends.
Decorated like a vintage video game---look for characters from Pac Man and other favorites in the mosaic tiles---Burgr is the hippest place in Tromsø.

Side dishes include onion rings, French fries, and even kimchi. The service is swift, and vegetarian options are available.

Open-faced sandwiches and fresh local juices also apply. You're surrounded with imposing, dramatic wall sculptures from famed artists.
As the name translates, "Heaven and Harbor" play lead roles in the spirit of this restaurant in the village of Ballstad. Sitting on a dock moored with fishing boats, the harbor is right outside, and as picturesque as they come. Heaven attempts to shine through the bright, impressionistic artwork on the walls, the charmingly worn wood tables and floors, and a menu inspired by grandma's recipes. As good as the carrot cake and apple pie are, the highlight is the house bacalao, a spicy stew made with salted cod. In summer, the dining area expands onto the dock itself.
Lokalmatbutikken means "the local food shop" and is the place in Brønnøysund to sample the true local fare, with top-quality artisanal specialties from throughout the region.
