The breakfast experience at Strand Fjordhotel garnered a mixed reception from its guests. Many guests appreciated the good quality and delicious taste of the breakfast with some noting it was excellent, fairly plentiful and featured very good bread. Others enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and the exceptional views offered from the breakfast area.
However, several reviews pointed out areas needing improvement. Some guests found the breakfast to be basic, modest or very simple with limited selection and variety. There were comments about the lack of sweet accompaniments and coffee only being available from a pump jug. A recurring theme was the dissatisfaction with pre-prepared plates and the absence of a buffet with some guests feeling that it did not match the standard they expected. Issues of portion size and the quality of ingredients were also mentioned with some guests expressing that the breakfast was unsatisfactory or poor.

Among the compliments, several guests found the dinner to be excellent and tasty, particularly enjoying dishes like gratinated fish goulash with rice and salad.
