Senjastua
A long-established, homestyle restaurant at the island-side end of the Senja bridge, serving traditional fishing-village dishes such as semi-dried cod and cod tongues in generous portions.

The restaurant specializes in traditional Senja cooking built on fish and seasonal ingredients. Signature dishes include semi-dried cod, grilled dried cod, cod tongues and grilled halibut, along with meat dishes and a kids' menu.
