Booket chefs table including wine 2 months before, and came together with my wife on 1 of june. Hoped for a great experience. And had a fantastic evening! The food is a journey from one top to another, no downs. Every dish is a ballanced...and exciting harmony of tastes, some 10-12 different ones. It is Lofoten and seafood is top quality, but there was also fantastic dishes including mea. Thank you Roy Magne! The consept with all the guests joining together around the table with the chef making the food in center was really great, and he managed to make us all feel like a group of good fiends or family. This is clearly top world class food in the best of atmosphere, do not miss!!More

Words can't describe being in Roy's studio and enjoying a marvelous evening around the table. The food was incredibly delicious, beyond all expectations, spectacular place. I cannot recommend it high enough. Thanks so much Roy for such a good evening at your studio.

12 guests a day are max at Lofoten's equivalent of Asia's "Hawker Chan". Only better! No fixed menu. You get what you get; "The proof of the pudding is in the eating". Lofoten Food Studio delivers! An acclaimed chef returned to his home village of...Ballstad and decided to continue his (high level) profession while raising a family. Food is on par with the "stars" but filling, the wine is very appropriate but not extravagant. However, "Star level" evolves from the fusion between the Chef's smalltalk -and taking questions- and the joint interaction among the individual guests. Tasting, producing food, the conversation and enjoying the companionship with others and the Chef for more than three hours goes like a happy family gathering. Book early!More

Roy Magne is a hidden gem in Lofoten, northern Norway, Norway, Europe ... His layed-back stories from the cache to the table is a theatre worthy. He called his kitchen a "SJÅ" or "KOK-SJÅ" with means a cabin where he cooks the food. What a...SJÅ, but nothing without the cook and the storrieteller ... love this concept.More

There are not that many great restaurants in the Leknes area so we were not sure what to expect from Lofoten Food Studio. But this was a great experience - one chef and an assistance made food for 12 people around one table and we...got to enjoy delicious food including quail egg and ham, white asparagus, ceviche, giant crab and haddock, whale. reindeer etc. A lot of the products were locally produced. We also got good quality wine! If you are in the area and what an amazing dining experience, do not hesitate to book a table!More

Amazing food from an amazing chef. To have a seat at this Chefs Table in not just a good meal with great wine, but a creative journey and a deep dive into all the wonderful food the region of Lofoten has to offer. The experience...is not too posh, (very much like the people of Lofoten) but a warm and honest, and a brilliant way to spend an evening. Memorable!More

Creative chef who brings artic food to another level. Way in front of all other restaurants on the lofoten. Only minor points on the entire evening is that restaurant is hard to find due to erratic address and the chef forgot to read abt my...fish allergy. Everything is freshly prepared, format is excellent for socializing. Kingcrab, fantastic scallops, artic char, halibut, lamb and awesome dessert. Replacements for the fish allergy were creatively replaced on the evening. Price / quality of food, drink excellent.More

From start to finish this was a food experience with focus on local food and perfection in the execution. The Chef is attentive to the guests, but lets the food to the talking and facilitates a great atmosphere. To experience first class food and services...in the Chefs backyard in beautiful Lofoten was a night to remember!More

One of the best food experiences I have had. From the delicious king crab and scallops to the perfectly prepared duck, the food was paired with great wines and the company of the chef himself. Will definitely return as the menu and tastes varies with...the seasons. Absolutely recommended!More

This was just an awesome experience from beginning to end. We were in the studio together with two couples from Australia, one from London and a family from sweden. For us the other guests made the experience even better - we made several new friends....The food... The wine... The service... The friendliness.. Roy-Magne (the Chef) masters it all. A true five star experience and a memory for life. I highly recomend it to all, both locals and tourists.More

Chef Roy Magne Berglund is widely known to be a true artist in the kitchen. He is truly inspired by the local and arctic produce. Attending Chef`s table is a great opportunity to taste arctic food made by a chef that truly heroes the ingredients...and lets them shine. You are seated around the chef`s table in company with locals/travellers and can watch the chef in action. I highly recomend an evening at Lofoten Food Studio.More

Chef Roy made for an unforgettable evening of expertly prepared and plated dishes which showcased the local produce and meat of the islands. This was hands down one of the best meals we have had. Expect 4 hours of multiple courses, detailed explanations, and great...conversation. This is a must stop if you are in the islands.More

We took six courses. It costs around 1100-1200 NOK. The price does not include the wine which is an additional 800 NOK. A bit expensive but in our opionion worth the money. Hope this helps. Johan
