Baran

Hands down the best beer bar in Bergen. I’ve lived here for 20+ years, and this is it. If you’re looking for a popular or hip place, look no further. Also have a beer at Biskopen which is 50m apart. Updated august 2024, the bartender has knowledge about beer and it is still the best place to drink unique and diverse beer in Bergen.

One of the great bars in Bergen. Want a beer that you can't find anywhere else? Chances are you might find a bottle here. It might break your wallet if you dive into that closet, but hey.... you'll love it.

Another place I really shouldn't write a review about, because other people will find out about Bar Baran! This place is lovely. Cosy, casual, with really friendly and knowledgeable people behind the bar that will help you find the perfect beer for you. They have lots of interesting things on tap (tonight I tried a beer called Mango Kush Wheat Beer, which didn't taste like either really but was fresh and hoppy and lovely, and a pineapple cider which was very different and interesting). It's not so noisy you can't chat with your friends, but does get fairly lively in a very relaxed way. Love this place. FYI 24/1/25 - this place is still lovely!!!

The French dude makes that place. He has a great personality , funny and honest. He will play whatever musics you like. Amazing beers as well . I had a triple from England that blue my doors off. So good. We went back a second time while we were in Bergen . Love this place

One of the best places to get different beers in Bergen. They have many types of stouts it that is your preference (many bars dont have any).

Really nice and cosy place. A great selection of beers. This is an untappd venue, but it's a bit pricey compared to other beer venues in Bergen.

Baran Café is easily one of the cosiest bars in Bergen. Great, chill atmosphere and lovely decor. All the staff are super friendly as well. The selection of beers is excellent, and if you can't find something you like at Baran, you won't find it anywhere. The location seems extremely small, but they do have a somewhat hidden basement. It's not the place the bring a large group, but 4-5 people could easily spend an entire evening at Baran, immersed in deep conversation.

A very cozy and intimate bar in Bergen. Decent prices and coold beer :) recommended!
