Strøm Mat & Bar

Strøm mat & bar boasts one of the best views in Skien. Add the phenomenal food they serve, and you are in for a perfect evening.

A place for everyone

Restaurant manager Kenneth Vågan and head chef Thor Ingo Gabrielsen run Strøm Mat og Bar with a simple philosophy: trendy restaurants should be for everyone. The threshold is low, and you can stop by at any time of the day. Strøm mat & bar is, therefore, a natural gathering place for many in Skien.

Fantastic surroundings

The restaurant nests in a sunny area, close to Hjellevannet and here, urban and maritime life meet and the smell of the sea is especially appealing during the summertime. The view from the restaurant is breathtaking, and you can easily spend hours here.

Strøm mat & bar also offers outdoor seating so that you can enjoy the warm weather in the spring and summer.

Continental menu

The dishes here come from all over the world, and the flavours are varied. You can experience a little bit of everything here – everything from steam buns with beef tail, kimchi, hoisin and chilli mayonnaise to a salad with smoked duck breast.

The weekly lunch costs only 120 kroner and changes every day. Otherwise, the burger is a classic, and it is appropriate for any occasion.

The kitchen wants to give you a perfect dining experience, even when you are waiting for the next dish. When you order several dishes, you get Foccacia, and the fresh bread is a delicious appetizer.
