Boen Gård
A historic manor restaurant on the banks of the Tovdalselva river, recommended by the Michelin Guide since 2022, using vegetables from its own kitchen garden for most of its produce.
Boen Gård is a historic manor on the Tovdalselva river. It has been listed in the Michelin Guide since 2022, and the manor hotel also holds a Michelin Key. Head chef Tomasz Rochon and sommelier Dagfinn Galdal build modern dishes on a foundation of classic French cooking. The menu changes with the seasons, and about 80% of the vegetables in season come from the estate's own kitchen garden. The kitchen often uses local lamb and wild salmon caught by anglers on the river, and it has recreated a historic menu served to King Oscar II in 1891. Open year-round by reservation only; check the official website for specific dates. It is about 15 km from the city centre, so you will need a car or a taxi.
