Alfred Kitchen Bar
Alfred Kitchen & Bar
A popular international small-plates restaurant that opened in 2023 and is often full at lunch, so booking ahead is advised.
A sister restaurant to Gustav, the well-known Rovaniemi restaurant, Alfred opened in autumn 2023 and quickly became one of Oulu's most popular restaurants. Time Out named it one of the best dining experiences in Northern Finland in 2025. The menu changes every two to three months. The usual approach is to order one cold plate and one hot plate. Cold plates cost about €15–17 and hot dishes €15–24. There is also a wine list and cocktails. Weekday lunch has a good reputation, but the tables are small and the seating is tight, so arrive early or reserve ahead.

Mon 10:30–14:30, Tue–Thu 10:30–23:00, Fri 10:30–24:00, Sat 14:00–24:00; closed Sunday
