Matkroken Gryllefjord
About
Matkroken Gryllefjord, on Senja, is a supermarket at Fv86, 9380 Gryllefjord, Norway, serving the village and the surrounding area with everyday groceries. First-time visitors will find a compact store where the shelves cover the basics — bread, dairy, fresh produce and household goods — rather than a large-format hypermarket. It is the kind of shop where you can stock up before heading further along the island's roads.
The store's 4.3 out of 5 average from 131 reviews reflects steady approval from shoppers who use it regularly. Opening hours run Mo-Fr 09:00-20:00 and Sa 09:00-16:00, with no Sunday trading. Gryllefjord sits on Senja's outer coast, and the shop also draws customers from nearby Silsand and Finnsnes, both of which lie within reach by road. A website at https://www.coop.no/butikker/coop-marked-matkroken/matkroken-gryllefjord-4410 lists the store's details.
Reaching Gryllefjord from the island's main towns means a drive along the Norwegian county roads, and the shop is a practical stop for anyone travelling between Finnsnes, Silsand and the outer fishing villages. Stockfish and clipfish, dried and salted cod, are produced in the Lofoten Islands and exported south, so dried fish is a familiar sight along this coast. Norwegian is the language spoken here, and English is widely understood.
Senja's northern position brings midnight sun in summer and polar night in winter, which shapes when visitors plan their trips. The supermarket's location on Fv86 places it on the route through Gryllefjord, making it a natural point to pick up supplies before continuing to Skaland, Bergsbotn or Mefjordvær.
