A cocktail bar in Oslo city centre where tradition meets innovation
4 min read · About Contrasts
A good cocktail starts with respect for the classics. A great one adds something new. That balance is what About Contrasts is built on.
Classics, done properly
Old fashioned, negroni, martini — the drinks that have lasted for a reason. We make them with care, the right ice and the right glass.
Signature cocktails
Next to the classics you will find our own creations: drinks that play with contrasts in flavour, colour and presentation. Ask the bartender — the menu is only the starting point.
Before or after dinner
Start the evening with an aperitif, stay for the evening menu, and end with a nightcap. On Fridays and Saturdays we are open until midnight.
