Located right by Akerselva, BLÅ has been an institution in Oslo's music scene for decades. The programme ranges from jazz jams to club nights and electronica, and the outdoor seating along the river is one of the city's loveliest spots when the weather permits.
Why this works as a date
The music carries the evening, and the riverside seating offers a peaceful place to chat between sets.
What to order
The Sunday jazz jam is free and low-key – start there if you want to test the waters.
Best time to go
Sunday afternoon or Friday evening
