Why Travelers Love Tapperiet Bistro
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
We came here two nights in a row because it’s really good. Ordered fish and chips, the stockfish burger, some wine and the lofoten drink. The second time ordered some more fish and chips (they are delicious) and the vegetarian pizza to share. Great service. They tell you from the start if they don’t have something available from the menu. Very cozy and romantic atmosphere. I loved it. Stopped here before the hike up. Note they close from 11-12 to turn over for lunch. We got there a little before noon and they let us in which was good because a huge charter bus came in after us and occupied the full restaurant. The food was very good, I loved the fish and chips most of all but the fried chicken was my son’s fav. Recommend if you are in the area! Really good food, we tried the fish soup which contrary to the usual fish soup I’m used to it was not so fishy haha. We also had the rain deer burger and a small side of fish and chips and everything it was really good, recommend

They know just the right food to serve to those who’ve climbed all the 1978 steps of the Reinebringen staircase to the top. Amazing (comfort) food, just what you need. Staff is super friendly and speak really good English. The food is served fast, and tastes delicious. Everything is of great quality, and really fresh. The price is just right; not too expensive.
