How Much Do Drinks Cost in Bergen?

Heading to Bergen and curious about how much you'll spend on drinks during your visit? Here's a quick look at average prices in local cafés, bars, and shops, updated for 2025:

Coffee

In local independent cafés, a cappuccino or latte usually costs around 70 NOK, so expect between $6.60 / €6.20 / £5.00 for those.

Beer

At cafés and bars, a 0,4L of beer typically runs 90–130 NOK. That’s around $8.60–12.50 USD, €8.00–11.60 EUR, or £6.00–8.60 GBP
In grocery stores, a domestic beer (0.33L bottle) costs approximately 34 NOK, or $3.25 / €3.00 / £2.30.

Wine (by the glass)

A glass of wine at a mid-range restaurant will set you back about 100–150 NOK. That converts to $9.75–14.50 USD, €9.05–13.50 EUR, or £6.90–10.30 GBP.

Whisky Shot / Short Spirit

While I didn’t find Bergen-specific whisky shot prices, a typical bar short (4cl) of spirits—like aquavit—averages around 100–150 NOK. That’s roughly $9.75–14.50 USD, €9.05–13.50 EUR, or £6.90–10.30 GBP

Jägerbombs

No official price data for Jägerbombs specifically, but these are often priced similarly to strong spirit mixes—around 120 NOK. So, expect about $11.50 USD, €10.60 EUR, or £8.00 GBP.

How Much for a Cocktail in Bergen? 🍸
