An In-Depth Look at Brasserie Árran on a Hurtigruten Ship

A closer look at Brasserie Árran, the delicious Hurtigruten restaurant that pays homage to the Sámi people through ingredients and flavor.

Premium Cruise Line, Hurtigruten, has offered their guests incredible experiences for over a century; traveling along the Norwegian coastline, and providing unparalleled enrichment and expedition-style excursions. Every venue on their ships is thoughtfully crafted with the comfort of their guests in mind, and one of the most elevated aspects of each cruise is the onboard dining. Hurtigruten focuses heavily on Norwegian producers, local ingredients, and authentic Scandinavian flavors when creating each of their dining venues; making each meal a truly delicious experience.

One of their most popular restaurants, found on their Svalbard and North Cape Line ships, is Brasserie Árran. This incredible restaurant pays homage to the Sámi people, and “Árran” is the northern Sámi word for the fire at the heart of the Sámi people’s temporary dwellings. The idea is that the Árran is where people gather to tell their stories, and enjoy time together; which is exactly what you and your family and friends will do at Brasserie Árran.
