🌟 Faces Behund Our Places: Meet Ole, Assistant Manager at Grønland Boulebar & Spiseri 🌟
💬 “If you’re a guest here, you’ll see me at Grønland Boulebar—it’s as simple as that!”
Ole hails from the small town of Kråkstad, Norway, a place where everybody knows each other. Growing up, he often traveled to Oslo to enjoy the best of both worlds. After exploring different jobs in Kråkstad, Ski, and Stavanger, he found his way to Oslo following a year-long backpacking adventure.
Ole’s journey with Resthon began when he applied for a waiter position. Within just two weeks, he was promoted to ‘Hovmester’, and a year later, he became the Assistant Manager of Williamsburg Bab & Beer, Resthon’s newest venue at the time. After 2.5 years of growth and navigating the challenges of the pandemic, Ole transitioned to Grønland Boulebar, where he’s now thriving as Assistant Manager.
💬 “This is the best job I’ve ever had in a restaurant or bar setting. We’ve got an incredible team, a top-notch kitchen, and a unique concept that keeps things fresh and exciting every day.”
Grønland Boulebar is a vibrant hub offering something for everyone. From live jazz on Tuesdays, opera pub nights, and quizzes, to corporate events and boule tournaments, Ole plays a key role in making the venue a cultural melting pot in the heart of Oslo.
He’s also taken on a fun new challenge as the face of Grønland Boulebar’s social media, a role he’s grown to love. Looking ahead, Ole is determined to:
✅ Highlight big-screen sports events.
✅ Make boule the go-to activity—it’s fun, easy, and perfect for groups or company events.
✅ Continue building Grønland Boulebar as a vibrant, social hangout.
🎸 Fun facts about Ole: When he’s not at work, Ole is a sports enthusiast (football, handball, volleyball—you name it!), a skilled guitarist, and a passionate wine lover. He has in fact, just passed his wine sommelier exam so he is now Resthon’s 6th certified wine sommelier.
