Honest, authentic, and passionate. That’s the essence of Restaurant Bryggekanten – a culinary and social meeting point for both locals and visitors, idyllically located right by the sea in Florø, Norway’s westernmost town.
With around 90 seats and a consistent maritime style, Bryggekanten welcomes you into an atmosphere that reflects coastal culture – unpretentious, yet refined. Here, food takes centre stage, and the kitchen takes no shortcuts in its pursuit of the best flavours. A deep love for high-quality ingredients, honest craftsmanship, and the joy of cooking shines through in every dish served.
A maritime atmosphere with local roots
The restaurant is connected to Quality Hotel Florø and boasts a unique location right on the harbourfront. You’ll truly feel the salty sea breeze – especially when the doors open on warm days and the restaurant becomes an extension of the quay. From your table, you can enjoy views of the marina, and it’s not uncommon to see boats gliding past while you savour your meal.
The décor is warmly maritime and inviting, with details inspired by boathouses, sea life, and traditional coastal architecture. This combination of style and atmosphere creates a welcoming environment – perfect for romantic dinners, social gatherings, or a quality weekday lunch.
À la carte with a focus on quality
The menu at Bryggekanten changes with the seasons and places strong emphasis on using local ingredients from both sea and land. Here, you can truly taste the essence of Western Norway – from fresh seafood and tender meats to creative vegetarian dishes and indulgent desserts. The kitchen blends the traditional with the modern, offering dishes with a clear signature and lots of heart.
The dedicated team maintains a high standard in both food and service, ensuring your visit is a memorable one from start to finish.
A special room for special occasions – Naustet
For a more private and exclusive experience, Bryggekanten offers “Kongebordet” in Naustet – a beautifully atmospheric room that seats up to 12 people. Located adjacent to the main restaurant but still secluded and intimate, it’s the perfect setting for smaller meetings, celebrations, or a cosy dinner with friends or colleagues. The rustic, authentic interior enhances the maritime feel and makes the experience even more special.
A lasting impression
Whether you stop by for a cup of coffee and a view of the harbour, or settle in for a full evening of culinary delights, Bryggekanten is a place that stays with you. The genuine passion for food, hospitality, and atmosphere makes this a spot you’ll want to return to – again and again.
Restaurant Bryggekanten is more than just a place to eat – it’s part of the authentic coastal experience in Florø. Here, every meal becomes a journey in itself, in a landscape of contrast and closeness to both nature and culture.
