Torget Fish Market
For price and atmosphere, it’s hard to beat the fish market. Right alongside the harbour and a stone’s throw from Bryggen, here you’ll find everything from smoked whale meat (Nkr349 a kilo if you can live with your conscience) and salmon to calamari and chips (Nkr130), fish cakes (from Nkr89), prawn baguettes (Nkr45), local caviar and, sometimes, nonfishy reindeer and elk. Stallholders are usually happy to make up a take-away platter or prepare a sealed bag to take home.

Gitarmaker
The engaging Hanno Kiehl hand-crafts top-notch acoustic guitars that seem very much at home in this most musical city. They don’t come cheap (prices start at Nkr25,000) and they can take two months to make, but the quality is unquestionable.
