Hygge Happy Hour: Nordic Game Night

  • Norway House 913 East Franklin Avenue Minneapolis United States (map)

Add a little friendly competition to your koselig Thursday evening! At Nordic Game Night, we bring out the classics—like Hnefatafl, also known as Viking Chess—and invite you to gather, play, and connect over strategy, laughter, and a round (or two) of drinks.

Whether you’re a seasoned board gamer or trying something new, this laid-back evening is the perfect way to unwind with friends—or make new ones—while discovering games with deep roots in Nordic history and culture.


What makes this night extra hyggelig:

  • ♟️ Play Like a Viking – Learn to play games like Hnefatafl, challenge a friend, or pick from other casual board games and card decks available

  • 🍷 BOGO Beer & Wine – Bring a buddy and take advantage of our buy-one-get-one drink special

  • 🍽️ Nordic-Inspired Menu Items – Enjoy light bites designed by Chef Karsten Gjeruldsen, perfect for pairing with a pint or a game


No need to be an expert—just come ready to play, relax, and enjoy the cozy, welcoming vibe of our Kaffebar. Whether you stop by for one round or stay for the whole evening, you’ll leave refreshed, recharged, and maybe even a little more strategic.


💡 If the main entrance is locked when you arrive, simply ring the bell—we’re happy to let you in.


Velkommen!
Let the (friendly) battles begin.
