Litteraturhuset

My mother and myself were looking for a nice little lunch place — we wanted to be a little healthy and not spend too much money. Obviously in Bergen Norway the latter is often difficult. But we ended up here.
Lovely place with varied offering — we went for the salmon salad. Very friendly staff and free wifi (always useful when you are travelling).

First lunch in Bergen with my daughter. She found this restaurant !! We ate a delicious salad ! Staff friendly and very nice atmosphere .I recommend this place !!

The «House of Litterature» in Bergen contains so much more than the restaurant that it has so far been reviewed for.
The establishment opened January 2013 and is the «home» for writers in Bergen, as well as a stage for debates, readings, launches, kids’ events etc. In addition it has a brasserie and a café on the first level.
One Tuesday every month they are hosting the event «Ut med språket», focusing on linguistics and the history and meaning behind common and less common words in the Norwegian language. The show is lead by the TV personality Linda Eide, together with professor in Nordic languages, Gunnstein Akselberg. They also have various guests attending, in addition to an engaged audience.
Last Tuesday that guest happened to be my sister, invited to present dialect words from our home town, in addition to discuss her work on her master thesis; looking into the use of «-ish» in the Norwegian language.
The show is entertaining (in Norwegian) and is representing just one of the experiences you can get from visiting Litteraturhuset in Bergen.

Came here with a group of international students for a typical Christmas dinner (i.e. the famous Norwegian Julebord). The event was thankfully mostly sponsored, so we each paid around 200kr although the actual 3 course meal was around 500kr itself (but then again we’re in Norway, so prices shouldn’t be discussed). The food itself was delicious though and the atmosphere of the place really nice. (Attached pictures of the dishes as well). Enjoy!
