One of many music scenes in Oslo, this one's one of the best! Also, and not least important, it's a nice watering hole. Espen Nilsen, owner and tender, is the closest you will come - in Norway - to your congenial british pub host, and the clientele varies from theatre workers/actors through music lovers and performers to barristers and other low-life creatures. Bang slap in the centre of Oslo, next to the Court house, two major hotels and a gay bar, Herr Nilsen is worth the visit! Beer prices in Norway are exorbitant in however way you choose to judge them, but Espen's are not by far among the highest.
