Restaurant at the top of the Fløibanen funicular with a view over Bergen, serving Norwegian dishes.
Fløirestauranten is a restaurant at the top of the Fløibanen funicular on Fløyfjellet, above Bergen, Vestland, Norway. Its address, Fløyfjellet 2, sits at the summit station, which rises about 320 metres above the city and gives one of the most photographed views of Bergen's harbour, rooftops and surrounding fjords and islands. The restaurant serves Norwegian dishes and is built around the panorama, making the view the main reason to dine here.
The food is straightforward Norwegian cooking for lunch and dinner. The menu offers Norwegian lunch and dinner dishes, aimed at visitors who have ridden the funicular and want a sit-down meal with the city spread below. Without a specialist kitchen identity, the restaurant's strength is the setting rather than a particular chef or signature plate, and diners usually choose it for the combination of mountain air, view and a conventional Norwegian meal.
The dining room is casual and bright, with large windows or terrace seating oriented toward the view, depending on season and weather. Dress is relaxed, often hiking-friendly given the trails that start from the summit. The noise level is moderate and increases when tour groups arrive. Opening hours follow the funicular schedule, so the restaurant is open daily but tied to the running hours of the Fløibanen.
Prices run roughly 250 to 600 NOK per person (about $26 to $63), plus the funicular fare for the ride up. Booking is recommended at sunset, when the most sought-after window tables fill, and is made online through the restaurant's booking page. In clear weather and summer, an early reservation is wise; in rain or low cloud, the view can be limited, so checking the forecast before committing to a sunset dinner is sensible. Guests with dietary requirements should mention them when booking.
