Read moreSTAVANGER’S BEST GASTRO PUB? 10/5 I’m sure of it! From the tap choices all the way to the food. Wow! I could probably recommend everything but I am there for the KFC and you will not be disappointed!
The quiz is good too (it’s in Norwegian, so if you don’t speak the language don’t threat just bring a Norwegian speaking body with you.
They also have endless amounts of board games and the cosy cellar environment is great for all needs whether that be you hate the Norwegian sun(rain), you need a break from the crazy that occurs on ground level or you just wanna say...
