Chocolate person? Yeah, I know. We all are. Fjåk chocolate shop &amp; café can be found just a minutes walk from our hotel and is the perfect place to start the day. On their menu you&#8217;ll find not only the best chocolate sweets, but delicious breakfast and brunch dishes. They have plenty of tables where you can sit and enjoy your food while doing plenty of people watching of the people of the city. For the best of both worlds we recommend the hot chocolate paired with one of the sandwiches (The avocado one is really good, but no surprise there). 



If you&#8217;re looking to make the most of your visit, we recommend adding the brown cheese cake as a desert. It is truly one of a kind!

Jest

A new and trendy eatery that focuses on brunch, and oh boy, the brunch is good!



The menu consists of various set menus inspired by famous cities, e.g., Brooklyn Brunch or Brisbane Brunch. With the set menus, you get several small dishes named and a small dessert. So good! They also have regular sandwiches and other smaller dishes, but we recommend trying the set menus.



Bergen Brunch is the perfect place for brunch and bubbles. A good tip is to order a table before you get there, as they are often fully booked.

A delectable feast awaits on a wooden table, surrounded by plates filled with a variety of food. The spread includes a succulent bowl of shrimp adorned with dill, a plate of vibrant green salad teeming with fresh tomatoes and lettuce, and a collection of mouth-watering dishes. Close by, a glass of water glistens, reflecting the soft ambient light. A slice of freshly baked white bread completes the scene, adding a touch of simplicity and comfort to the enticing display.

Bergen Brunch

In this restaurant it feels like you are stepping into Paris in 1920. The interior and music is done with real finesse, and is really something to see when you are visiting Bergen. 



The French menu doesn&#8217;t disappoint either, with a nice selection of food and wine. Whether you are visiting Cherie for lunch or dinner, you can&#8217;t go wrong. Once you&#8217;re there we recommend that you take a walk around the venue and explore all the details!

Brasserie Cherie

Want a special experience? Not that many minutes walk from the city center, you&#8217;ll find Bark. It recently opened in Bergen, and oh is it at the top of our lists. The atmosphere itself is very cozy and we would say the perfect place for a date night. Some might consider this restaurant a bit prizy, but we would say that it is worth the visit. The kitchen uses only the best ingredients and the menu changes by the season. We recommend going for the &#8220;full package&#8221;, a 5-course dinner that will leave you full of the best Bark has to offer. Pair it with some wine or your alcohol-free beverage of choice and we can (almost) guarantee that you&#8217;ll have a wonderful experience. Pssst &#8211; some of our employees have also said that Bark has the best chocolate fondant in town so we would try that too if we were you.

Bark

Here you will find the healthiest and heartiest lunch in town!



They have a selection of excellent soups(meat, vegetarian and vegan), in addition to salads. You can compose the salads yourself, and they make a salad base with fresh spinach, which they mix with a delicious mango dressing.



In addition to delicious soups and salads, they also have coffee, matcha, golden milk, and a selection of raw cakes.

The scene showcases a delectable display of culinary delights, brimming with various vegetables and rice. The focus is on a large bowl overflowing with vibrant vegetables and fluffy grains, serving as the centerpiece of the composition.

Craving some Asian food? Then we suggest you try out Ying Ying. A restaurant where beautiful Asian dishes and an elegant atmosphere meet, you&#8217;ll definitely have a fantastic experience. They adapt their menu seasonally, to make sure you always get the best ingredients. We recommend the Szechuan Beef, and maybe some Baozi if you&#8217;re feeling extra hungry!

Ying Ying

A relatively new and very popular restaurant in Bergen that serves Italian food. From our experience, we haven&#8217;t tried anything we didn&#8217;t like!



It is located in the cozy &#8220;Skostredet&#8221; and has a nice outside terrace in addition to the inside space. This place is golden year-round.



The food is excellent, and the atmosphere is top-notch. We recommend you book well in advance or be prepared to stand in line. They have a few tables for drop-in, but there is usually a queue.

In this image, a wooden table is adorned with an appetizing spread of four plates filled with different dishes. The dishes vary in contents and presentation, providing a culinary feast for the eyes. One plate holds a delectable cake placed on a pristine white plate. Another plate showcases a savory pasta dish, topped with a rich sauce that adds a burst of flavor to the meal. Finally, a plate filled with a diverse assortment of food items sits on the table, showcasing a harmonious blend of flavors and cuisine.

Villani

One of our top-pics in Bergen! At this cozy bistro, they change the menu daily but always have a fish dish, a meat dish and good selection of vegetarian dishes. They also have wonderfully good small dishes such as falafel with hummus, grilled vegetables and tomatoes with feta and hazelnuts. It&#8217;s a bit hard to pinpoint the exact cuisine. It just feels like they make whatever they like &#8211; and it works!



If you&#8217;re a group, we recommend you ask the waiter to put together a tasting menu. You won&#8217;t be disappointed.

Allmuen

Hands down the best sushi in Bergen. Nama is known for its excellent service, the good-looking venue, and the quality of the kitchen. The restaurant combines good ingredients and simple preparation into a completely unique taste experience. 



The food is based on sharing, and they have great drinks. They have Japanese robatayaki cuisine, Izakaya, and a sushi bar. Perfect place to bring your date if you want to impress someone.

The scene is set on a table adorned with an assortment of delectable treats. In the center of the table lies a plate of sushi. The sushi roll is garnished with a generous sprinkle of sesame seeds and topped with decadent caviar. To accompany the delectable sushi, a refreshing drink awaits.

Si vous aimez la cuisine chinoise, Banzha à Bergen est l&#8217;endroit qu&#8217;il vous faut!

Banzha

One of the coziest places to eat in Bergen, and the food is amazing. They have classic dishes such as mussels, fish, and meat inspired by Nordic and continental traditions. 



Colonialen also has a large and rich wine list put together by knowledgeable sommeliers. They have a great lunch menu with, among other things, mussels, eggs benedict, and beef tartar.

An elegant dining experience unfolds in a rustic setting, portrayed on a canvas with masterful strokes. The scene depicts a group of people gathered around a table, engaged in animated conversation and savoring a sumptuous meal. The atmosphere is convivial and relaxed, with guests dressed in stylish attire. The focal point of the composition is the ornate wooden table, occupying the center of the image.

Best lunch in town, hands down.. Located in Bergen Kunsthall, Landmark offers lunch and early dinner, and is a definite must-try while you&#8217;re in town! 



The menu changes daily, so you can visit several times during your stay and still be amazed. The menu includes the &#8220;regulars&#8221; like avocado toast, fish soup, falafel, cheesy fries, as well as the daily special(s). In addition, they have a great selection of natural wines, craft beers, and cocktails. 



Are you visiting for the first time? Everything on the menu is a safe bet, so you can&#8217;t go wrong. They usually close at 17.00, so be sure to be there in good time. The vibe is relaxed and cool, and what we love about this place is that you can find people from all over, from musicians in their 20s to ladies 70+ meeting up for tea.

Dinner with a view? Skyskraperen is a restaurant, located on the top of Mount Ulriken in Bergen, is an experience in and of itself. You might guess that the English translation of its name is the Skyscraper, aptly named as you will dine on top of a sea of clouds if the weather is right. 



You can either take a cable car from the mountain&#8217;s base or hike up there if you are feeling sporty. Fine dining at its most spectacular!

Looking for a place to brunch? Then Kaigaten Deli is the perfect alternative for you. 



The deli is a place where local quality food meets the big world. They have their own Sicilian pizza, water-in-your-mouth cheese, ham, wine, beer and cider from Hardanger. We highly recommend the shrimp-sandwich!



If the weather is nice you might even be able to enjoy your meal in the sun, with a view to the beautiful Lille Lungegårdsvannet.

Kaigaten Deli

Bryggen is a must-see once you&#8217;re in Bergen, and to be honest, it&#8217;s almost impossible not to. Colorful wooden buildings facing the harbor contain a warren of shops and eating and drinking places &#8211; fascinating to walk around; the buildings are under continual maintenance and are clearly moving as they all lean in and propped up on each other.



If you get a chance, book a guided tour of the buildings to learn more about the history!

The image shows as the sun sets over the tranquil harbor. The air is filled with a sense of serenity and bliss. The broad expanse of the harbor is adorned with multiple boats, each with its own unique character and charm. The scene is bathed in the warm glow of the fading sunlight, setting an idyllic backdrop for the collection of vessels.

Bryggen Hanseatic Wharf

If you&#8217;re in Bergen going to Mount Ulriken is an absolute must! You can hike or take the cable car up the mountainside. From the top, you get the most beautiful view of Bergen.



If you like it, we recommend hiking for the full experience. You can take the Ulriken bus from the city center (it costs about 100kr for a round trip). If you choose public transport, you have several alternatives:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>From the city center: Take the Light Rail (line 2) to Haukeland Hospital or bus no. 5 or 6 from Festplassen, 12 from Olav Kyrres gate, or 16E from Xhibition. If you take the bus, get off at Haukelandsbakken.</li>
</ul>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>From Danmarksplass: Take the Light Rail (line 1) to Kronstad and switch to line 2 to Haukeland sykehus. You can also take the bus, no. 27 from Krohnsminde or no. 12 from Strømmen.</li>
</ul>



Follow the signs from there, approximately 10 minutes. And ready, set, go!
