A wonderful brunch restaurant. We love everything on the menu and we are frequent guests! Eggs Benedicte, blueberry pancakes... vegan alternatives and gluten free bread as an option. Sometimes it's a 1h line on the week-end, so you may want to drop in and put your name on the list beforehand :)

Rosendals gardens is a place where many Stockholmers will go on a sunny day, but there's room for many! Located in a fantastic setting on Djurgården island there's a great restaurant/café that offers salads, soups, sandwiches and pastries made in the bakery next door.
