About Fisketorget
Bergen's open-air fish market operating since 1276, where fishmongers sell fresh shrimp, king crab, and prepared seafood from outdoor stalls. The most authentic Bergen experience is buying a bag of fresh reker (shrimp) to eat standing at the counter. Fish soup is served in bread bowls for a quick, filling meal.
Insider Tips
Visit in the morning between 9-11 AM when the catch is freshest and prices are slightly lower before the cruise ship crowds arrive.
