Hurtigruten/HX

Food from the best produce

Norway’s culinary traditions has much in common with the scenery of the coastline. It is always fresh, distinctive and full of variety. We have always strived to give our guests a truly unique and authentic experience, and local produce and authentic food traditions are incorporated into every element of the culinary experience on board. Visiting 34 ports, Hurtigruten has an exceptional opportunity to get fresh produce from local suppliers every day. This means delicious new and fresh ingredients, both from the coastal and inland areas.

Real food experiences

To enhance this unique concept, you will have food experiences not only in the restaurants, but also through storytelling. As part of our ‘Autumn Gold’ concept, we serve cloudberries out on deck. An woman in Finnmark has handpicked these berries and she delivers them to our ships. Experiences with Hurtigruten don’t get more authentic than this.

A menu that changes with the seasons and areas in which we sail

Based on the season’s freshest ingredients, our chefs create either three-course dinners or lavish buffets. Being a coastal voyage, seafood often dominates the menu, accompanied by fresh vegetables and delicately-flavored sauces. Each dinner ends with traditional desserts, like homemade cakes, puddings, berries or sorbet. Breakfast and lunch are served buffet style. To accompany each meal you can choose from our comprehensive selection of red and white wines, beer, aquavit and soft drinks. Afterwards, you can enjoy fresh coffee in any of the lounges or drinks in one of the bars while taking in the picturesque landscape.

Each of our twelve coastal ships has its own style, adding a special personality to your home away from home. All provide the same intimate travel experience, with their own informal Hurtigruten atmosphere.
