Bjørk
This chic, modern café-restaurant is popular for its sunny terrace and straightforward food that always hits the mark—think juicy marinated jumbo shrimp, lobster soup, and a large selection of pizzas served hot from a wood-fired oven. It's an equally good stop for lunch, dinner, or an afternoon coffee with a delicious dessert.
Hildurs Urterarium
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. In summer (mid-June to mid-August) you can enjoy lunch or teatime in the garden café. The restaurant encourages diners to call ahead with any special dietary requests and is especially welcoming to children.

Indian Tandoori
A Trondheim institution and award-winning gastronomic dining room near the water, where you'll find all the best organic produce from farms around Trondelag in traditional Indian dishes, from tandoori to masalas to biryanis and dopiazas. As a nod to Northern Norway and Sámi culture, there's the notorious jahangiri with Røros reindeer.
Big Horn Steakhouse
If you're feeling competitive, this American-style steak house hosts a steak-eating contest featuring a 45-ounce cut. It specializes in beef but has an extensive menu with something to appeal to everyone, even vegetarians. The atmosphere is relaxed and laid-back, perfect for groups of all sizes. The eatery is in the center of Harstad, meaning it's probably a short walk from your hotel.
Bringen
Bryggerikaia
A spacious outdoor terrace and seafront location with unparalleled views over the harbor and distant mountains assure Bryggerikaia a steady clientele. But it's the menu of fresh seafood—local mussels, shrimp, and salmon, for starters—and market-fresh produce, as well as hearty meat dishes, that keep diners coming back. There's live entertainment in the bar on weekends.
Den Glade Kalori
At "the happy calorie," you'll find a luscious selection of cakes, tarts, cookies, ice cream, freshly baked bread, and other treats along with a nice hot cup of coffee. There's also a tempting array of savory sandwiches to pack up for an excursion or a picnic on the beach.
Indian Curry & Nepali Restaurant
Nice departure from the seafood and dairy overload of other local restaurants. An extensive menu of Indian and Nepalese curries---plus Himalayan momo dumplings and lighter soups, fresh lassis, desserts, and snacks. Super affordable dinner and mammoth-size meal deals with various curries, rice, and fresh naan are available. Longtime dining spot loved by locals and travelers alike, headed by the cheery and talented Nabin Kumar Thakur.
Løvolds Kafeteria
If you want to eat like a local, this bustling cafeteria is the place to be. Having had plenty of time to perfect its craft, Løvolds has been serving generous helpings of homemade Norwegian food for more than 75 years. Some of the more popular choices include reindeer cutlets with pureed veggies, smoked sausage with red cabbage, and salmon and cucumber salad.
