Olebuda & Cafe Olé RESTAURANT
(
70 26 32 30; www.olebuda.no ; restaurant mains Nkr120-135;
cafe 9am-7pm, restaurant from
6pm)
Occupying Geiranger's old general store, the pretty upstairs restaurant does a range of
international-style dishes and good local standards like poached salmon roulade and
house-smoked goat; all fish and meat are local. Downstairs is a colourful, casual cafe with
great carrot cake (Nkr45), all day snacks and good coffee.
Brasserie Posten RESTAURANT
( 70 26 13 06; www.brasserieposten.no ; lunch Nkr99-124, dinner Nkr168-228; noon-11pm)
A simple menu of salads, burgers, steaks, fish and pizza is elevated above the norm by a
passionate local chef who sources his Heelsylt, organice dairy from Røros and makes the
most of fresh herbs and vegetables. The modern Scando interior is bright and atmospheric,
but the fjord-side terrace wins.
It's the perfect summer evening spot to enjoy their platters of local cured meats and
smoked fish (Nkr189) and a Slogen pale ale.
Geiranger Skysstasjon CAFE
( 8am-6pm Mon-Sat, from 10am Sun Jun-Aug, shorter hours rest of year)
Big picture windows and footpath benches at this lovely black-stained Swiss-style shop-
front look over the port action but keep you nicely out of the thick of it. The cafe makes
great cappuccinos, using Ålesund's Jacu coffee, and delicious homemade boller (raisin
rolls) and svele (pancakes). It's fully licensed and open some evenings for quiz nights and
tapas - ask for upcoming dates.
