big mac i oslo

Have people frightened you and told you that eating out in Norway is extremely expensive? Is that true, also if you want to buy a Big Mac Menu in McDonald’s or a Whopper Menu in Burger King? We are about to let you know!

There are lots of McDonald’s and Burger King restaurants all across Norway. It is quite interesting to know that these are franchise restaurants, and they are not forced to operate with the same prices. As a result, there have been quite a lot of attention given in media to the fact that you have to pay nearly 20 NOK more for a Big Mac Menu at the most expensive McDonald’s restaurant in Norway compared to the cheapest restaurants (the article is in Norwegian).

Still, if you have been out traveling in Europe, you might know that this concept is well-known elsewhere as well, meaning that the difference between the cheapest and the most expensive Big Mac Menu in France might be as much as €3 (more than 30 NOK).

But, how much do you need in your wallet (or on your payment card) to buy a Big Mac Menu at a McDonald’s restaurant in Oslo, or to buy a Whopper Menu at a Burger King restaurant in Oslo?

How much does a Big Mac Menu and a Whopper Menu cost in Oslo?

Once again, the prices might vary a little bit, but it isn’t that much of a difference, meaning you shouldn’t go looking for a cheaper McDonald’s or Burger King.

As you enter a restaurant, these are the prices you should be expecting.

  • The price of a Big Mac Menu in Oslo: 125 NOK (€10)
  • The price of a Whopper Menu in Oslo: 145 NOK (€12)

These are the approximate prices of menus with the two popular burgers, including both fries and a drink next to the hamburger. Is this expensive? If you compare it to many other countries in central Europe, like Paris or Amsterdam, it isn’t really more expensive, and if you compare it to Switzerland, it is cheaper. But, if you compare it to countries in the Eastern Europe like the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary, you will probably consider the Norwegian fast-food prices to be quite steep.

What do you think? If you go to eat a pizza in Domino’s Pizza in Oslo, you will pay approximately 200 NOK (€16) for the cheapest pizza with a size of 30cm. If you buy a kebab at Bislett Kebab (a popular kebab brand in Oslo), you must pay about 100 NOK for the basic kebab. These are just to give you a chance to compare prices to find out where you should eat during your trip to Oslo.

Just for fun, if you go to Aker Brygge and decide to drink a beer at a restaurant or café, you should be prepared to pay between 125-180 NOK for a glass of beer (0.4-0.5 liter).
