This long-standing restaurant brings together the spirit of the Viking age and modern comfort food serving a la carte classics and interactive shared feasts ideal for both casual meals and special celebrations.

Harald’s menu is inspired by traditional Nordic ingredients (pohjoiset raaka-aineet) and Viking food culture, focusing on generous portions and communal dining that reflects ancient gatherings. Salads (salaatit) include fresh greens (vihannekset) with tomato (tomaatti), carrot (porkkana), oat (kaura) and herb-marinated beans (yrttimarinoidut pavut) for a refreshing start.

Beef hanger steak (naudan hanger pihvi), pork belly (porsaan vatsapala) and grilled chicken breast (grillattu broilerinrinta) come together on Viking-style platters with creamy sauces (kerma-kastikkeet), shield potatoes (viikinkien kilpiperunat) and honey-roasted root vegetables (hunajapaahdetut juurekset). For seafood lovers, Arctic char (tunturilohi) with dill vinaigrette (tilli-vinaigrette) and artichoke mashed potatoes (artisokka-perunamuusi) brings coastal freshness to the feast.

The dessert selection continues the adventure with classics like Helga’s chocolate cake (Helgan suklaakakku) and Ingrid the Fair’s bilberry crisp (Ingridin puolukkapaistos), pairing rich flavours with berry sauces (marjakastikkeet) and creamy accents. Harald also offers Viking-themed feasts and shared platters for groups that want a memorable experience with a variety of dishes presented in theatrical style. A well-crafted range of house beers (oluet), wines (viinit) and drinks (juomat) complements the menu. With its historic vibe, lively energy and substantial portions, Viikinkiravintola Harald is a standout destination in Tampere for those seeking a fun and flavourful Nordic feast.
