Huset
It’s something of a walk to work up an appetite for the Huset’s highly regarded restaurant, on whose menu (Nkr495) reindeer and grouse feature regularly. The bar serves up pizzas (Nkr85 to Nkr100), whale in pepper sauce (Nkr165) and seal stew (Nkr155) and its signature hamburger med alt (Nkr96) – a meaty burger with all the trimmings, so juicy, a researcher told us, that lonely scientists in their tents dream of it. A curiosity for a place so far from the nearest vineyard: its wine cellar has over 20,000 bottles.

Kroa
This pub and restaurant was reconstructed from the elements of a building brought in from Russian Barentsburg (the giant white bust of Lenin peeking from behind the bar – and sporting a Liverpool FC scarf when we were last here – gives a clue). Service is cheerful and mains verge on the gargantuan. Starters are more modest in size. Try, for example, the cured seal (Nkr78) or Arctic char (Nkr92).

Brasseri Nansen
Longyearbyen has two excellent hotel restaurants: Brasseri Nansen at the Radisson SAS Polar; and Funktionærmessen Restaurant in the Spitsbergen Hotel. These apart, locals will tell you that the two best places to eat and drink are the pub and the house. But not just any old pub or house…
