One of cosiest restaurants in all of Tromsø, if not the cosiest!

Eating locally sourced fresh arctic fish is more than just a necessity in Tromsø, it’s practically a bucket list activity. Japan imports this fish to use in their high end sushi for a reason! And yet despite this, it’s not as easy to come across as you might think, with the majority of such establishments that serve it around the city verging on fine dining in both atmosphere and price.

Bradus is the perfect middle ground. It is by no means cheap but is still very accessible, and its incredibly friendly staff, warm and cosy interior, and beautifully crafted dishes will leave you wanting to go back for a second visit.

I ate the steamed halibut, after a lovely starter of cured salmon. Both were exceptional, and were complimented with a lovely selection of quirky vegetables, appealing colours, and most importantly, contrasting flavours.

My partner could not eat fish and so settled on lamb ribs, which to our surprise was so good that it may even have trumped the fish! The house red and deserts were excellent too.

This is the first place I would recommend to anybody who had just one evening in the city. But be sure to book earlier in the day is it fills up fast!
