Baklommen bar
Bergen
At a glance
Baklommen bar is a cocktail bar in the Bryggen area of Bergen, with a character shaped by its unusual interior. The space is deliberately crooked and uneven, echoing the irregular character of the surrounding buildings. This gives the bar a distinctive setting without taking away from its relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
The drinks menu centres on cocktails, with a broad selection available from the bar. Coffee is also welcome, making Baklommen suitable for a quieter stop as well as an evening drink. The venue presents itself as an easygoing place where different kinds of visits fit naturally into the setting, from a simple coffee to time spent exploring the cocktail selection.
Baklommen is located in Enhjørningsgården, one of the passages within Bryggen. The interior setting is part of the experience, with the sloping and skewed character providing a clear sense of place. It has a more intimate feel than a large, formal drinking venue, and the atmosphere is described as friendly and comfortable.
A stairway connects Baklommen with To Kokker, the restaurant above. This makes the bar a practical part of an evening that also includes a meal, while still allowing it to function independently as a place for drinks or coffee. The restaurant connection adds a dining option without changing Baklommen’s identity as a cocktail bar.
The venue suits visitors looking for cocktails in an informal Bryggen setting, as well as those seeking a coffee or a calm drink in a characterful interior. Its appeal comes from the combination of a well-equipped bar, a welcoming mood and a setting that reflects the distinctive built environment around it. Baklommen is open in the evening from Wednesday to Saturday, making it oriented towards after-hours visits rather than daytime dining.
