Culinary Heritage

Passionate about living eco-friendly, Fretheim Hotel practices its green lifestyle throughout the property, especially when it comes to the food and kitchen service. Only the best local and regional cheese, grass-fed free-range meats, and organic produce are used and processed at Fretheim's kitchen to serve quality and delicious dishes.

Restaurant Arven

Enjoy a delicious culinary experience at Fretheim Hotel’s main restaurant, Restaurant Arven. Situated on the first floor of the historical hotel with direct access from the Lobby bar, Restaurant Arven uses Norwegian and locally produced ingredients that are in season. In winter fresh seafood is at its best, while spring is time for vegetables like asparagus and shoots. Summer is season for fresh vegetables and fruits, and in autumn the chefs prepare warming dishes made of lamb and root vegetables.

The Lobby Bar

The Lobby bar is located next to the reception on the ground floor. Comfortable sofas and a delightful view of the garden and fjord make for a welcoming atmosphere. This is a great place to unwind and enjoy some late night snacks and drinks, or to sip some morning coffee.
