Åpenbar Pop-up Gastropub in Skjervøy – Arctic Nature Meets Culinary Innovation

A new culinary experience is arriving in Skjervøy: Åpenbar Arctic Gastropub, a pop-up concept that celebrates the raw beauty and rich flavors of the North!

Opening Hours
Kitchen: 18:00 – 22:00
Bar: Tuesday – Thursday: until 00:30
Friday – Saturday: until 02:30

The kitchen is a tribute to the region’s bounty – think fresh seafood pulled from icy Arctic waters, wild game from the tundra, and handpicked berries and herbs that tell stories of the land. Each dish is crafted with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and elevated through modern techniques, while staying rooted in the food traditions of Northern Norway, the Sami, and the Kven.

Designed for sharing and social dining, the menu invites guests to gather around the table, explore northern flavors, and connect over food that’s both familiar and surprising.

A New Cultural Hub in the Heart of Skjervøy

Skjervøy is already a magnet for winter adventurers, drawn by its world-class whale watching and mesmerizing Northern Lights. Now, På Hjørnet AS introduces Åpenbar as a vibrant new meeting place – a gastropub that brings together locals and travelers in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It’s more than a place to eat and drink; it’s a space to celebrate community, culture, and conversation.

What Is a Gastropub – and Why the Arctic Needs One?

Born in London in the 1990s, the gastropub blends the relaxed vibe of a pub with the refined flavors of a high-end kitchen. Åpenbar is the Arctic’s own take on this global trend – casual yet curated, rustic yet refined. It’s where storytelling meets seasoning, and every plate is a passport to the North.
