In the old colonial building in Værlandet you´ll find Hamnaholmen, a charming little café, pub and shop.
The Hamnaholmen Colonial
The building that houses Hamnaholmen was built in the 1930s, and was built in the center of the herring fishery. The islet on which the house is located has a fish market for dogfish and mackerel sturgeon. On the ground floor where Hamnaholmen now stands, there was a farm shop when the house was built. Later, in the 1970s, the grocery store was converted into a supermarket.
