Food Scene

It's a bar. It's a restaurant. It's a deli. The food is amazing. We take advantage of the cheese counter often. I recommend having breakfast here one day for a true swedish breakfast.

Really fantastic swedish food and a beautiful ambiance. I recommend making a reservation, but you can always call and see if they can squeeze you in. Good prices for the quality.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Stockholm. Enjoy a fancy pastry and coffee for what swedes call "fika". They have very good sandwiches for breakfast. And they make good salads for lunch.

Small beautiful restaurant with the most amazing food. The staff is super friendly. Make reservations or be prepared to eat very late at night. In the summer, they have a coffee stand in the park!

Amazing vegetarian food of Asian influence. Large warm dishes. Salad, bread and coffee is included in the lunch (which is fairly typical of a swedish lunch).

Really great classic Swedish food. Nice white open ambiance. The specials on the board are way cheaper than the menu. I ignore the printed menu.

A great place for fika (coffee and something sweet). Order downstairs for something to eat at home, like a loaf of fresh bread, but go upstairs to have breakfast or fika. Their pastries are amazing.

This is a great place to get some work done outside the apt. It's part co-working space (don't sit where it says "reserved") and part coffee shop. Everyone is on laptops.

Pretty good pizza just down the block. Recommend it over Vapiano in Skrapan (across the street). No delivery, but take away is quick. Have a glass of wine at the bar while you wait!

Drinks & Nightlife

Open seasonally, this is a fantastic place for a beer with a view of the city. Check out the stand with craft beers for something a little special.

Very cool bar. Great music. Often different dj's, one upstairs and one in basement. Drinks are very good, and their burger is also delicious.

One of the best beer bars in the world. Special relationship with Cantillon and Drie Fonteine. For old geueze, ask for the special menu. Also an extensive whiskey list. And good mussel pots.

Arts & Culture

The photography museum is very nice. See what the latest exhibit is on their website, but I've never been disappointed. It's not too large; perfect for a half-day. The restaurant is also exceptional.

Indoor playland created by Astrid Lindgren, author of Pippi Longstocking. It can be really crazy on weekends, but it's a great pace for kids. They have some small plays (in swedish).

My son loves this museum. There are tons of old trains and buses for them to climb in, and there's a little train the kids can ride on that runs throughout the museum. It's a half-day activity.

Sightseeing

Ridiculously entertaining museum about a sunken ship. Very unique. Not to be missed. Some children don't like it because it's dark inside. Also bring a sweater as it can be cold inside.

This is our regular grocery store. There's a smaller one around the corner, but it's less limited in offering and hours. You pay for bags in Sweden.

The government-run liquor store. It's next to the ICA grocery store. You can only buy alcohol at Systembolaget. Look for the green sign.

Everything Else

This space in the center of the city hosts festivals year round. During winter, there is an ice rink you should try. You can even bring your own hot dogs ("korv") to grill.
