Brygghuset

Top choice in Bohuslän


Across the estuary from the Fiskebäckskil ferry terminal, this celebrated waterfront restaurant is lauded for its superb fish dishes that taste so fresh that the fish may as well have just leapt out of the harbour onto your plate. At lunchtime, have your herring eight ways – count 'em! – at the self-service buffet or grab a seafood soup.
