Restaurants and dining

Staying at Lyngvær Lodges places you close to some of Lofoten’s most distinctive food spots. Harbourside restaurants, small cafés in fishing villages and local favourites sit within short drives. Each offers a clear sense of place — quiet atmosphere, local produce and flavours shaped by the sea.

Børsen Spiseri

Svolvær – around 20 minutes

Located on a historic wharf from 1828 in Svinøya. Known for stockfish and local seafood prepared with care. Timber beams, sea-air and harbour views create a grounded, characterful setting. A strong choice for a calm, memorable evening.

Fiskekrogen

Henningsvær – around 15 minutes

A long-established seafood restaurant by the harbour in Henningsvær. Fresh fish from local boats, modern presentation and a gentle maritime atmosphere. Ideal after an afternoon in the village.

Bacalao

Svolvær – around 20 minutes

A casual harbour café-restaurant with a broad menu. Modern, relaxed and suitable for guests wanting something lighter or less formal while still staying close to the water.

Nordis

Svolvær – around 20 minutes

Local seafood alongside familiar international dishes. A balanced option when your group wants variety — from tørrfisk to a well-known classic.

Klatrekaféen

Henningsvær – around 15 minutes

A laid-back spot shaped by the climbing and surf community. Simple dishes, warm atmosphere and a good place to unwind after an active day.

Låven at Hov

Further to drive, but one of Norway’s most recognised farm-to-table experiences. Everything served is grown or sourced on the farm. Best combined with an overnight stay.
