Did you know that Stavanger is one of the few cities in Norway with multiple MICHELIN stars restaurants? The restaurant RE-NAA boasts two stars in the MICHELIN Guide Nordic, and the passionate pair running the restaurant, Sven Erik and Torill Renaa, are constantly adding new food concepts to Stavanger’s food map. Roger Asakil Joya, running the critically acclaimed restaurant Sabi Omakase, has established several restaurants in the region. K2 in Stavanger has now also achieved star status with its recent star in the guide. Moreover, Stavanger-based restau- rants, Tango, Söl , Bellies, Bravo and Sabi Enso also have distinctions from MICHELIN, a strong testimony to the region’s status as a food region in Norway. Remember to reserve a table well in advance if you want to give your taste buds a memorable experience, some of these restaurants have a waiting list of several months.

Savour sea and moorland views

You can satisfy your needs for excellent cuisine at several top-notch restaurants if you’re not necessarily after a MICHELIN stars restaurant. Discover special places that offer stunning views, delicious food, and tasty drinks; Slottet i Sirdal, Byrkjedalstunet, and Villa Rosenhagen at Jørpeland, just to name a few. If you just want to enjoy an ice cream or snack with a sea view, we recommend stopping by Is Paradis or Ølbergkiosken. End your day in style with a drink at Salon du Nord, overlooking the Stavanger harbour.

Excellent local produce

We are lucky to live in the heart of Norwegian food production. The mild, humid climate in the Stavanger region makes it particularly favourable for farming. This means that most ingredients do not have to travel far, and skilled chefs know how to appreciate this. The region is a major producer of tomatoes, parsley, potatoes, beetroot, and other vegetables. The region also accounts for nearly 80% of the cucumber production in Norway. Do not forget to order local drinks; we recommend products from Lervig Local and Berentsen Brygghus

Sustainable food production and farm shops in historical surroundings

Klostergarden is now run by the 11th generation, in a listed cultural environment at Utstein, where the history goes back to Harald Fairhair.

Beautifully located by the quay in Dirdal, you will find Dirdal Gardsutsalg, a farm shop established in 1908. The building itself is over 200 years old
