The Good Knight – chess to the people

Chess has become really popular in Norway, much due to the amazing accomplishments of our reigning world champion Magnus Carlsen. It’s only fitting, then, that the capital has got its own chess bar.

With chess boards integrated into every table, The Good Knight welcomes anyone who is interested in the game. If you don’t have a companion to play with, go right ahead and challenge the bartender!

Oche Torggata – darts & shufl made fun

Gone are the times of run-down boards in dark corners, stray darts and arguments over the scores. Using state-of-the-art technology, Oche (Pronounced Okey - Hockey without the ”H”) drags darts and shuffleboard into the 21st century.

Gather all your friends in your own private game area and choose between several darts or shuffleboard different games. Food, drinks and a carefully curated 50s-70s soundtrack make the evening complete.

Tilt – your favourite hipster arcade

Open since 2009, Tilt is a veteran on the Oslo bar game scene. It boasts the city’s best collection of pinball machines and arcade games, guaranteed to take you on a trip down nostalgia lane.

Did we mention that it also has an awesome selection of microbrews and high-quality imported beers?

Røør – shuffleboard and tap beer galore

Shuffleboard is a game that lets you team up and socialize while playing (never mind that its requirement for exactitude may not always pair well with booze). The Oslo pub Røør has 14 hand-made shuffleboard tables, which may be reserved beforehand to avoid waiting on busy nights. Downstairs you can choose between no fewer than 70 different beers on tap  

Oslo Camping – put-put golf, party-style

An old vacation classic. Miniature golf courses can be found at many a campground, but leaves, bird droppings, rain, snow, stray cats and other outdoor surprises can get in the way of a good game. No more! At Oslo Camping, all the fun is moved indoors so you can comfortably enjoy an 18-hole golf course, all year round.

Raadhuset - 1200 m2 of games

Raadhuset is a game wonderland filled with fun and games perfect for a night out with good friends or colleagues. Play shuffleboard, darts, pool, table tennis, karaoke, board games and much more. When hunger sets in, get your energy back up again with delicious mexican street food, and Raadhuset's beer bar, Raadhuset's wine bar and Raadhuset's cocktail bar are there to quench your thirst.
