Stockholm

In the heart of SoFo, after the grocery store full of organic and eco products carefully presented in attractive packaging that makes your mouth water and the take-away meal trays, the room opens onto a bar, then onto the warm restaurant. There is a wide variety of fish dishes and seafood platters, but also more atypical dishes: an opportunity to try something new before setting out again to conquer the capital! Very pleasant terrace in summer, if only for a drink. Continuous service.

In this restaurant in the middle of Gamla Stan, sausage is the main dish, but also other specialities such as pulled pork, smoked salmon and hot dogs. The aim is to share a passion for good food, all homemade of course. Vegetarians are not left out and the restaurant also offers meatless dishes. The terrace is the perfect place to enjoy a beer from the local microbreweries. The atmosphere is familial, simple and warm, a real good time to spend and to enjoy as much as you want.

In a covered hall in the center of the city, ten stalls offer typical dishes of a country (Thailand, Japan, Mexico, USA, etc.), to take away or to eat on the spot. Very friendly and in a relaxed atmosphere, many Swedes meet there to spend a moment with friends. One orders in one of the small stalls and one sits at one of the shared tables in order to taste its meal. It is a good opportunity to mingle with the local population and to put yourself in the shoes of a Swede during a lunch break.

At the end of the adorable little shaded courtyard, a true haven of peace that allows you to isolate yourself from the hustle and bustle of the city center, hides, under the glass roof of the large pool and thick foliage, an organic restaurant, nestled at the entrance of the Centralbadet spa. Ecobaren places well-being at the heart of its approach by proposing original and refined dishes whose products are all organically grown. A superb terrace is available in summer, while in winter you can enjoy the light therapy lamps during your tasting. Resourcing guaranteed!

This organic restaurant offers healthy, local food. The place is perfect for lunch, even if space is a little tight. You'll always have the option of taking away or setting up to eat in the park next door. Their homemade drinks are also excellent, and it's worth noting that their meatballs are lactose- and gluten-free. The icing on the cake: in 2023, they won the prestigious "Swedish Chef Award for Responsible Cuisine". A well-deserved award!

Enjoy freshly caught seafood or fish in a retro-chic atmosphere. Spacious and sophisticated restaurant, quality of service guaranteed with succulent dishes. It is recommended to order dishes to be tasted together: seafood plates with champagne or white wine. Otherwise, opt for the bouillabaisse or the catch of the day. The restaurant is open every day, so if you don't know where to go, you're sure to have at least one address available! In the evening, enjoy cocktails to the sound of the DJ.

Greasy Spoon is the place to go for a good brunch in SoFo. Just like the neighborhood, the atmosphere and staff are a bit hipster, the dishes are mismatched, the tapestries are full of flowers, the fruit juices are fresh and the menu is simple but tasty. We opt for eggs Benedict of the day, perfectly poached with truffle cream, bacon or smoked salmon. A Sunday ritual for many Swedes, peak consumption is between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on weekends, and reservations are not possible. A great place to start the day!

This small restaurant surfs on the street-food fashion, by declining dishes around poultry, hence the name, Bird. From the duck confit burger, to the buttermilk fried chicken, or the peanut wings, your taste buds and your pupils will be comforted. Young team, very pleasant and dynamic atmosphere, the products are fresh and produced on a small scale in a farm near Trollhättan. Tasty food and reasonable prices. Cocktail and beer menu. Very busy establishment.

In the extension of the Nybrokajen quay, opposite the Dramaten theater, this fish restaurant is one of the most distinguished in the capital. In a very calm atmosphere, you can taste formidably cooked fish. On the menu, sole, turbot, salmon, shrimps and scallops. Guarantee of the seriousness of the house: the seafood is only served between August and December, when it is at its gustatory peak. This is an address not to be missed for sea lovers, the quality of the products being unbeatable.

Although it's a very small space, its soothing decor and abundance of plants will take you on a voyage of discovery. A veritable green lung in the midst of urban bustle! You'll find exclusively vegan dishes served on wooden plates or coconuts: a variety of hot and cold bowls, sandwiches, smoothies and even delicious pastries. The prices are very reasonable and the staff friendly, so why not stop in between two visits to recharge your batteries?

Their values: creativity, quality and sustainability. Most of their products are organic, seasonal or local. They serve delicious, wholesome, additive-free fruit juices made exclusively from fresh produce. A real magic potion! A great brunch is served at weekends, with delicious acai bowls, waffles and more. They offer many gluten-free and vegan options. You feel wonderfully at home in this little café with its soothing, minimalist pastel decor.

Inside Östermalms Saluhall, a building dating back to 1888, the Husmans Deli is a place of pilgrimage and gastronomic discovery. Convenient for sampling charcuterie and discovering a selection of smoked meats over a glass of red wine. Refined selection of cheeses and meats in the form of tapas. It has always been the place to be for gourmets who come to stock up on delicatessen products from Sweden and elsewhere. Go there alone or with friends for a good time guaranteed!

Whether you're looking for a good start to the day or a lunch break, Mahalo offers a wide range of mouth-watering vegan dishes, including bowls, homemade smoothies and much more. The cuisine is a real treat, creative and carefully prepared with quality ingredients. The warm ambience, combined with the uncluttered decor and acidic touches, is very comforting on long winter days. In summer, you can enjoy a lounge area set out on a patio at the rear of the restaurant.

Here, everything is vegetarian or vegan, with a large proportion of dishes made from plants. Everything is well thought-out and balanced, based on fresh foods carefully selected and prepared on site. Please note that they do not offer hot dishes. The setting is relaxing, and ideal for recharging your batteries after a stroll through the city. You can even enjoy your meal or coffee by the window, surrounded by soft cushions. Although a little out of the way, this restaurant is well worth a visit. There's also a takeaway option.

The wait for brunch can sometimes be a little long, as this restaurant is a victim of its own success. Unfortunately, reservations are not possible, so you'll have to be patient, as it's first come, first served! On the à la carte menu, there's something for everyone: from savory to sweet, options for vegetarians and vegans, and a wide selection of homemade milkshakes. All dishes are delicious, gourmet and hearty. You can also take your brunch to go.
