Bardus Bistro
More Fun Than Formal
Bardus Bistro draws its inspiration from the bistros of southern Europe where small relaxed restaurants serve home style honest meals made from fresh local produce at a reasonable price. Bardus bistro is a Norwegian reflection of the traditional bistro concept and our menu is based on the ingredients and culinary history of the north. Priding ourselves on our strong personal relationships with suppliers, Bardus is able to create inventive and ever changing menu’s using ingredients such as moose, reindeer, king crab fresh fish and whale.
It is very rare indeed that our Ingredients arrive from any postal code other than Tromsø and its region. Having said that, where the cod swims really is out of our hands, however the hook and its owner are most certainly local. We serve food according to season, and to satisfy our own curiosity. You will be familiar with most of things that land on your plate, but not everything…we love to surprise as well as satisfy.
When the sun blesses us with its presence we’ll serve you on Tromsø’s most sun drenched and sheltered verandah.

Bardus Bar
Home of Tromsø’
Arctic Seaweed cocktail.
Bardus Bar is at its heart a Northern Norwegian experience. A Nordic cocktail bar dedicated to combining the finest products in the region to produce the highest quality experience. For the visitors amongst us the locally harvested Arctic seaweed cocktail is an experience not to be missed.
Whether you have a desire for a superbly crafted cocktail, a great glass of wine, a beer you have never heard of or to flirt with the finest examples of aged distillation...we will be sure to make you feel at home. And if you feel for a bite of food you can slide into our bistro and enjoy one of Tromsø’ finest Kitchens.
Bardus (bɑɾˈdʉːs), the original Dutch text meaning; that which comes suddenly (baduff). Feel free to use the term… the old proverbs are often the best. Built as early as 1868 as a bakery, then used as Troms’ first cinema, Bardus sits in historic surroundings. The building contains many angles… to venture up on to our mezzanine is an experience in itself.

It is always a balance between attention to detail and the celebration of diversity...to be precise in the areas of execution that must be correct and lovingly careless with everything else. ✌️ #bardus #morefunthaformal #lickmydish #tromso #northernnorway #norskmat #tromsø #arctickitchen #mat #matprat #foodie #norway #norge #bar #bartenderlife #mixology #cocktail #cocktailbar #drink #barman #craftcocktails #destinationtromso #classiccocktails

At this time of the year as the nights get longer l become aware that the darkness is not far away and there ain’t nothing l can do about it. On one hand it scares me and on the other l can’t wait for it to begin. As an Australian l liken it to being in big surf, big enough to properly scare you, you can see it coming, you know it has real power...it is going to take you. Just go with the flow and it’s a beautiful thing.

Sometimes when we go out we want to meet lots of people, other times we want to catch up with just one, to have a deeper connection. The second floor of the bar is a perfect place to catch up away from the herd. ✌️ #bardus #morefunthaformal #lickmydish #tromso #northernnorway #norskmat #tromsø #arctickitchen #mat #matprat #foodie #norway #norge #bar #bartenderlife #mixology #cocktail #cocktailbar #drink #barman #craftcocktails #destinationtromso #classiccocktails
