There are 18 active businesses in the category “Restaurant” in 4950 Risør - 58.1 per 10,000 residents.
That is more than similar-sized areas (median 7.4 per 10,000). With the typical density you would expect about 2.
In the last 3 years 6 opened. Not available yet: closures are only known from 3 October 2026.
The population is 3,100 and has grown 0.6% over 5 years.
In the Norwegian industry codes (SN2025), cafés, pubs, pizzerias, takeaways and restaurants share one code (56.110); only bars that serve drinks alone (56.300) and mobile food stands (56.120) have their own. Businesses with the restaurant code are counted as a café or bar, or as fast food, when their name says so – kafé, konditori, pub, bar, pizza, kebab, burger, gatekjøkken and the like – and the rest as restaurants. The split is therefore approximate.
