dining and restaurants in the faroe islands: beautifully wild, remote, and native cuisine
Let Us Book Your Culinary Adventure in the Faroe Islands
Dining in the Faroe Islands is as much about the setting and connection as it is about the cuisine. With ingredients drawn from the ocean, highlands, and wild landscape, every meal reflects the islands’ raw beauty and deep-rooted traditions.
From shared meals with locals — known as Heimablídni, where you’re welcomed into a Faroese home to share stories over a home-cooked feast — to private dining experiences in extraordinary locations such as a thousand-year-old wooden house or a secluded clifftop overlooking the sea, every experience tells a different story.
For those who prefer to dine out, the Faroe Islands’ restaurants combine Nordic innovation with Faroese authenticity. From cozy village eateries to fine-dining establishments led by world-class chefs, you’ll find creative interpretations of local ingredients served in unforgettable surroundings.
At REMÓT Travel, we curate these dining experiences as part of your bespoke journey — blending flavor, setting, and story to create something truly memorable.

Dining with Locals in the Faroe Islands
Brief Description
The photos above illustrate the Faroese tradition of Heimablídni — a unique concept where travelers are invited into a local’s home for a shared meal. It’s an intimate, cultural exchange that blends home-cooked Faroese cuisine with storytelling and genuine hospitality.
Each Heimablídni experience is different: you might dine with a fisherman’s family overlooking the sea, enjoy homemade lamb stew and rhubarb dessert in a cozy village kitchen, or share fresh catch-of-the-day on a windswept island farm. These meals are deeply personal, offering insight into Faroese life and traditions that few visitors ever get to experience.
Private Dining in the Faroe Islands
Brief Description
The photos above showcase examples of exclusive private dining experiences in the Faroe Islands — from intimate dinners prepared by top chefs to one-of-a-kind meals served in extraordinary settings.
Whether you’d like to enjoy a secluded table in nature surrounded by dramatic coastal cliffs, a candlelit evening in a thousand-year-old wooden house, or a private dining room in one of the islands’ best restaurants, we can make it happen. For the ultimate experience, we can even arrange for a Michelin-starred chef to cook a bespoke tasting menu in your private accommodation, using the finest Faroese ingredients — from hand-caught fish to locally foraged herbs.
