Oslo Bar & Bowling
Torggata 16, 0181 Oslo, Norge 2 hours
Head down the stairs in Torggata and you'll find a massive basement packed with games. They've got bowling, darts, and shuffleboard side by side, plus a bar serving the essentials. It’s loud and lively, so it never feels stiff or awkward. Great if you like a bit of buzz around you while you hang out.
Why it works
If you run out of things to say, you can just focus on the game. Plus, you're right in the mix for a drink afterwards.
What to order

Evening, a great way to start the night.
