Guidebook for Bergen
Food Scene
Trekroneren
1 Kong Oscars gateAn old hot dog stand where locals go to eat after the bars close.
Walk confidently through the fancy restaurant on the ground floor and into the basement where there is a bar and restaurant with best value for money food in Bergen. It uses the same kitchen as the restaurant above, but is as cheap as it gets.

Both the restaurant and the snack bar around the corner is great. Both have good quality food. The restaurant has a small menu with local ingredients and a cozy atmosphere. The snack bar has great burgers and is quite hip. A reservation is recommended for both.

A local favorite hiking trail. Stone steps up the mountain built by sherpas. Great view from the top, and also a great way to start a hike to Rundemanen, Vidden and a round trip to Fløyen from the city. The record up is 7 minutes and 58 seconds. I dare you to try this one!
