This gem offers the coolest drink menu in Oslo. Based on the art of Astrup Fernley museum they serve drinks that will blow your mind!
The scenery is mix of modern art work, Scandinavian design and luxery, combined with dimmed lights and a fireplace

The title says it all. The shiny and clean port area is a very decent place to spend a day. There is a great modern museum, a public space where a sunny day brings everyone around and a wide selection of food a drink. Thief is inside. Its very "hip" with decent design. The drinks are excellent. But you pay for the experience. That being said, in this area, everything seems to be overpriced.

Great rooftop setting in a great area with lots of restaurants and nightlife. VERY crowded and service a bit challenging.

I work a few steps from this bar, and love the area. We had a fantastic New Years Eve celebrations this year at a local restaurant and bar, and ended up in this bar at the end. I don’t know what the heck happened (we were almost sober). Who hired this french-english speaking bar man? As arrogant as can be and as deadly for the business as can be. Three barmen at work, 10 guests and 25 min wait for 2xGT? We left for the outdoor fireworks instead. What a dissappointment. I had booked a suite that night, but had to cancel. Is this really a 5 star? Have long experience w 5 stars, and this was a strange experience!!!

I have never been treated so poorly in my entire life at any restaurant or bar. I believe the name of the bartender was Slalomer and he was extremely rude and arrogant, the girl working with him had long dark hair but not sure of her name, this was on Monday evening February 1st.
I highly suggest if management read this review that she either gets fired or proper training. She ignored me on several accounts and once I had paid she actually threw my credit card on the table. Unbelievable, if I am ever in Oslo again I will definitely not return and I hope others will take my recommendation and stay away. Ruined my Oslo experience completely!

The staff only speak English. He could not explain the menu.He was only talk about drinking.
Very expensive beer, 90 kroner for one little beer.

Visited with my family today for our Christmas day stroll at the marina Aker Brygge.
I have to say the interior is beautiful, very chic & stylish aesthetically pleasing in every way. This place has accommodated some very famous people since its opening. Front reception staff were welcoming and helpful, however go as far as the bar on the 1st floor and well that's where it lost some of its charm.
We ordered 4 hot chocolates to warm us up after a bracing walk in the beautiful scenery. The female staff member was extremely abrupt and rather curt in her manner, bordering on rude. The hot chocolate was little more than a mix of hot water with chocolate flavouring & at 70 NOK per cup (£7.00) equivalent lacked body or finesse. Disappointing to all, and I have personally had better instant chocolate, but instant was not what I expected a £7.00 per cup.
Perhaps you have to be a VIP to experience better, I'm sorry you have let yourself down on this occasion.

The Theif bar has no soul, it is a nice bar a little bit old style, very expensive You get much more atmosphere in Hanami bar 50 meter from The Thief.

A great location indeed, if we would rate only that it would be 5/5 but...
We are not only looking for that, at least I am not :)
Service was extremely slooow. We arrived at 7 pm and got our menus at 8:30 pm, not to mention that place was more than empty...
Prices are extreme, 0.33 beer for 140kr? That's 14 Euros!
Food was ok but again for that price that's the least they can do.
In this case, I believe there are so many better restaurants in Oslo where you get value for the money and good service.
