Britannia Bar
Trondheim, Norway
Set in the heart of Norway’s third city for more than 150 years, the grand dame Britannia Hotel oozes old-school luxury, the kind of place where big-deal travellers check in for a cushy stay and locals come to celebrate milestone birthdays and weddings. Amid the timeless glamour the Britannia Bar raises the act of cocktail-making to an art, walking the line between tradition and innovation with finesse. Executive bar manager Øyvind Lindgjerdet and his team craft drinks inspired by fine art, architecture and influential locals. For example, the Nansen – which is named after explorer Fridtjof Nansen, who shared stories of his Arctic expedition at the hotel in 1896 – contains aquavit, ice cider, oloroso sherry, Siberian hogweed and truffle seaweed. Nestle into the corner of a plum-hued booth and sip your way through the concoctions.
