John Dee Live Club & Pub

The Spis take

An intimate live-music club and pub in the lower floors of the Rockefeller complex, open since 1997 and a mainstay of Oslo's gig scene for pop, rock and touring acts. Come for the concert and a beer at the bar rather than a meal, it's a venue first. Reliable, well-run and part of the city's music furniture, but judge it by the lineup, not the kitchen.
