Food & Drink

Welcome to Café Berwald!

Elwing Catering runs the café and bar in Berwaldhallen, and offers an appetizing selection of both warm and cold dishes, sandwiches, snacks, desserts and coffee or tea, wine, cider and beer. Of course, there are also several non-alcoholic options to choose from. Café Berwald is open to those who have a valid ticket in connection with a concert or event. You can pre-order food for both before the performance and for any intermission.

Can I pre-order food and drinks?

Yes! With a bite to eat before the concert, or a snack and something to drink during the intermission, your visit will be a complete experience. Café Berwald is run by Elwing Catering and opens two hours before your concert or performance starts.

Food and beverage is available on all three floors, with slightly different conditions. When you pre-book, you don't have to queue, but you are of course also welcome to order upon arrival. If you are a group of ten or more, you always need to pre-book. Click here to read more.

Can I pre-book refreshments for the intermission?

Yes, pre-orders for intermission refreshments are made and paid for on site in one of the three service areas before the concert starts. Arrive well in advance and the service staff will help you book. You will then be allocated a table (either at a café table or a standing table).

The number of possible intermission pre-orders depends on the time between the start of the concert and the intermission, which varies from 25 minutes to 1.5 hours. The longer the time, the more pre-orders are possible. But you can always shop directly at the café cash register during the intermission, even if the pre-order is full.

Can I bring my own food?

Food and drinks are prohibited in the concert hall. You are also not allowed to bring food or drinks into the premises of Berwaldhallen, including the foyers. Exceptions are made for baby food, fruit, simple snacks that you may need for medical reasons during your visit, and plain water. Café Berwald opens two hours before the concert starts and is also open during any intermission.

Is there drinkable water?

Yes, a water dispenser with cold, fresh water and paper cups is available on every floor in the foyer, and is of course free of charge.
