“ A super quaint restaurant located right by the waters edge. Was an old sea plane air port. There is an upper balcony which has great views. The decorations inside are all themed from that era. The best way to describe it is like a classic American diner. The menu is American fast food, the burgers are really interesting as they take the burger deconstruct it add spices and then reconstruct it. They then flame grill it. Was really tasty. There was beers on tap and a good selection of wines and soft drinks ”
“ The best staff! Had to stop off at the restaurant due to low battery on my boat. The staff were incredibly understanding and helpful. Let me leave the boat overnight whilst I charged the batteries at home. Very friendly and helpful. Delicious food too! ”
“ This lovely seaside restaurant is located in a mostly industrial-office area of Fornebu, the area which once hosted Oslo's main airport. There is inside and outside seating, but only a few tables benefit from view towards the waterfront and beyond to the Inner Oslofjord. We spotted some colourful Common Eider ducks in the water. We had some lovely seafood sandwiches with a generous helping of shrimps, all fresh and delicious. ”
