Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you are looking for shopping, bars, restaurants, cafes and pleasant walk all at one place then this is THE place. One can watch beautiful Oslo Fjord from here. One can spend hours here watching the world go by.
Don't miss when in Oslo...

A mix of St Katherine’s dock in London and the Albert Dock in Liverpool but with more class. Atmospheric, attractive and interesting. If in Oslo you must visit here.

Nice boardwalk in Oslo city center - A good mix of restaurants and cafes. A lot of commuter boats dock at Aker Brygge which is a nice lively background when you dine.

Nice area to go for a walk on the waterfront. We did not try the restaurants and bars because they seemed overpriced even for Norwegian standards.

Aker Brygge is a major entertainment and shopping district along the banks of Oslofjord. I first visited Aker Brygge in 1987 shortly after completion of the initial phase of construction and transformation of the former shipyard at the site. Since later 1980's there have been further extensions and now covers quite an extensive area to the west of Pipervika. Our latest visit was fairly early one morning before it got too busy, it is a nice area of the city and is one of the many sights to explore in Oslo.

I had a fun time at Aker Brygge. There were many shops to peruse through, and they were all laid out in a unique and interesting layout. I went in the winter so it wasn't too crowded or anything. Overall I had a fun time just walking through the different stores.

Nice shopping mall on the promenade. Lots of stores, couple floors high with food options as well. It was good for a walk before hopping in a ferry

Every city with a waterfront has its own Fisherman's Wharf, its own South Street Seaport, its own Navy Pier. Copenhagen has Nyhavn. It's inevitable. So are the crowds, the buskers, and those electric scooter daredevils who enjoy spooking tourists from behind. Looking recently renovated, this is Oslo's congregation point for all things commercially exploitative and the entertainment hub for all the disembarked cruise ship passengers. That explains the intense concentration of open-area bars, outdoor cafe seating, and really loud Scandinavians.
The constantly congested area is a combination of the sleek modern architecture of neighboring Tjuvholmen and the old-timey maritime shipyard it once was. Walking the promenade can be a struggle on a sunny day, but Aker Brygge is not without its redeeming features. There are some reasonably good restaurants like Pastis that offer compelling people watching. The new and huge Nasjonalmuseet is here as is the intriguing Nobel Peace Center. Is Aker Brygge avoidable for the first-time visitor to Oslo? Oh sure...but it doesn't have to be.

I just visited in January. The shops are open all year round , but they do close relatively early during this time of year. The sun is setting around 4:30 p.m. right now. All the restaurants in the area were open. Many even had outdoor seating even in January. They have heaters. It's a wonderful place to visit.

Akke Brigge is the area. So yes it's open on weekends :) You should be able to access the area around the sea (pier, boats, little dammed off water area). The shops definitely on Saturday. It will be busy with the hustle bustle of city life. Restaurants and bars might have different timings on a Sunday. The castle museum should be open on Saturdays.

I agree with NikonGlass. It's an easy walk or you can take the tram. Buy tickets for the tram from the kiosk at the station.
