Helmersen

Welcome to the lovely restaurant & wine bar Helmersen. Here, your Mediterranean dreams will come true!

Wonderful taste experiences since 2002

Helmersen Delikatasser & wine bar is a delicacy restaurant, café, and wine bar nesting in the heart of Tromsø. On the menu, you will find breakfast, lunch and tasty snacks that taste even better than they look! The restaurant is centrally located on Storgata and is a popular dining choice, both among the permanent residents, but also tourists.

In 2019, the building got a complete makeover. However, the original timber walls from 1823 remain, and they create a pleasant contrast with the oak parquet and modern colour choices. The place emits a warm and inviting feeling that makes you want to stay for just a little while longer.

Modern quality-wine and seasonal menu

Are you in the mood for delicious wines accompanied by a seasonal menu inspired by the tastes of the Mediterranean and Norway? Well, then Helmersen is the spot to pick. Here, you can dig into cuisine and food cultures inspired mainly by Italy, France, and Spain. Naturally, the menu also represents Scandinavia with products of the highest quality.

Come by and taste Norwegian cheese, which has become Helmersen’s specialty. Kraftkar, Munkeby, Rueslåtten and cheese from Kjerringøy farm, Stavanger Ysteri, Orkladal, Bo Jensen, Lofoten Gårdsysteri and Grindal Ysteri is sold here. Cheese lovers, commence!

Great knowledge of all products and manufacturers

Quality is crucial at Helmersen’s Delikatasser & Wine bar. The staff prioritizes gaining as much knowledge as possible about their products through close relations with their manufacturers, importers and suppliers over many years. The menu has many dishes to tempt you with, such as sandwiches, breakfast plates, autumn salad and soup of the day.

On the snack menu, you can try finger food such as cheeses, olives, and cured meats. On the smaller menu, the staff recommends Mont d'Or, which is a creamy kumelkost. It is a dish your taste buds do not want to miss out on!

Helmersen is a small taste of Europe in Tromsø. Come by and experience the wonderful atmosphere and great food!
