Svinøya Rorbuer also includes one of the most distinctive restaurants in theLofoten Islands. The “Børsen Spiseri” is housed in a venerable quayside warehouse dating back to 1828, and considerable emphasis has been placed on maintaining the building’s original features. Most of the building’s historical attributes have been preserved, providing an atmosphere with an aroma of tar and rope. Both meat and fish dishes are served here, made from Lofoten’s unique and fresh, local ingredients.

In the same building we find the former “krambua” or old general store, which is a tiny museum in its own right. Old wares and equipment from bygone.
