Oliver Twist is a popular craft beer bar located in the Sodermalm area of Stockholm, close to the Slussen metro station. It offers a unique selection of American craft import beers and collaborates with Nynashamns for access to rare brews. The bar has a classic pub atmosphere with its own twist and features an extensive range of over 20 taps and 200 varieties by the bottle and can.
Oliver (not the owner) is an extremely nice and knowledgeable bartender, they have a great selection of beer on tap and also bottles and cans. Offered a great service and I'd totally recommend a visit to this bar 🤩

Oliver Twist is an eclectic place, full of charm. You’ll find a veritable smorgasbord (to use the local term) of characters here, from chatty ladies to drunken giants. The phenomenal beer selection is a key draw: loads of craft options and good representation from the UK. A must visit - try the beers, get some wonderfully spicy ‘dirty’ fries, mingle with the characters. More please sir!
an absolute gem in the heart of cool Stockholm... situated in the hipster area, this pub resembles a real ale pub in England... with genuine hand pulled cask ale bitters on sale... whilst pricey, certainly worth a visit if you like proper beer
Great selection of craft beer in a cozy bar! Haven't been here in years, and the service used to be a lowpoint, but got pleasantly surprised this time and will be back more 👌🏼
Great little bar with a good selection of local and ingernational ales.
Lots of seating, friendly staff
One of my regular haunts when having a beer - they have three excellent cask pumps. All the staff are friendly and the beer selection is outstanding!
Haven’t eaten here so can’t review the food :)
Good lunch salad and bread buffet but the main dish is hit or miss
Great atmosphere, a very wide selection of beers and very decent food! The service is amazing!

Brewery
Nya Carnegiebryggeriet, also known as New Carnegie Brewery, is a collaborative project involving Brooklyn Brewery, Carlsberg Sverige, E.C. Dahls Brewery from Norway and Swedish brewmaster Anders Wendler. This venture was initiated to celebrate the 175th anniversary of Sweden's long-standing beer brand, Carnegie Porter.
First of all: thank you for the nice afternoon @carnegiebryggeriet! We just had some drinks - sadly no food - which really looked great. The staff is super super friendly - we really had a nice time!

I was absolutely starving and popped in for an evening meal. I ordered something different, I went for the schnitzel. I missed the fact the potatoes were covered in mustard. I am not a big fan. That is definitely on me. The schnitzel was deep fried and very oily. It also seemed heavily seasoned and salty. The beers were great and made locally. I think I just had a did meal. The vibe here is good. My partner's food was good..albeit a little over salted too.
I went here in the evening with friends. We sat inside at a high table which was perfect. Drank pints and shared plates. The beer was delicious and the veda-like malt bread on the sharing plates was to die for! (Is this made with left over yeast from the brewing process?) All the sharing plates were delicious really.
The location is great. I arrived in a taxi but there were both cars and bikes parked outside.
The staff were fun, knowledgable, friendly and helpful. I would go back with more friends again.
Thank you for a memorable evening.
Very cool microbrewery with many delicious beers. I did the tour in English (which they give on Tuesdays) and tasted 4 beers. All were spectacular. Tour guide was super friendly. Afterwards, I stayed to have another pint on the patio. Location is right by a ferry stop and super convenient.
Nice brewery with bar and wide space outside by the sea/lake.
Just in front the stop of the ferry from Södermalm.
Outside with a dog is fine, inside I didn't ask.
They have plenty boardgames and they make some food.
All the staff is always kind.
BUT
115 kr för a 30cl sometimes is too much.
More folk öl please.
A 44 cl can in a system bolaget cost 50, 90kr. At least for that price, 115 kr, give us a 40 cl glass.
I must admit I don't really understand the prices of good beer around.
10 euro for a little glass is too much
Nice place to enjoy good crafted beer and looking over the nice scenery in Hammarby Sjöstad. The beer is a bit pricey for 40 cl, around SEK 85-95. I only had a beer so my review is only about the outdoor area and beer. Recommend this place for a beer.
Great outdoors seatingareas with great view. But also very nice indoors with the closeness to the brewery. Lots of good beers but also great beer drinks that is worth a try . Good base menu. Where you can find both a good burger or an vegetarian option. Worth the visit.
Having done the ölprovning (beer tasting) with a very engaging guide, a variety of beer and in general interesting information and history we also enjoyed the restaurant and bar. There was a pub quiz as well. The food wasn't amazing but the beer selection of course was excellent, some really diverse choices. Although not the easiest to get to the location is beautiful being right on the water with lovely views of the surrounding area.

Omnipollos Hatt is a must-visit destination in Stockholm, known for its cozy and understated vibe with outdoor seating. This craft brewery taproom offers an impressive selection of craft beers, including their own small batch brews as well as a rotating assortment from other renowned breweries. The venue also features a collaboration with Pizza Hatt, offering some of the best pizzas in Sweden to complement the diverse beer options.
Great atmosphere and selection of beers. It's a bit expensive but really worth it for what you get. The pizzas are delicious, with a lot of vegan options too. The beers are really good and the staff really kind.
There are not a lot of seats available and it's not possible to book so you have to plan on that.
Would totally recommend to anyone.

I have heard a lot of nice things about this pizza place and I must confess my expectations were quite high. Maybe that’s why I was left a bit disappointed.
The pizzas we ordered were nice, but none of them wowed me.
The staff is amazing, super friendly and professional!
Came here because of the good review on pizza. Well…. If i want tomato soup, i prefer it on a bowl, not on top of pizza that has 50% crust. Atmosphere And service were nice. But pizza…no.
A supposedly LGBTQ Beer-bar sporting a Palestine flag at the center of the bar. Two things that would get you publicly hanged in Gaza... Queer beer... If anything shouts virtue signaling this is it.
I really wanted to like this place, but other than their masochistic political statements, the staff is genuinely unpleasant and help ruin the vibe.. Truly disappointing.
My advice to the ownership and staff; stick to mediocre pizza rather than mediocre political statements.
Had been wanting to go here for a while! I’ve had a decent amount of omnipollo beer in the states but to make it here and taste it from the source was awesome! (Next will be the actual brewery, I am 2/3) the bar space was a bit crowded (I was by myself) but as it got later the crowd thinned out. The girls behind the counter were so nice and answered all the beer nerd questions I had 😂 I didn’t have any of the pizza but it looked delicious so I will have to try it next time! I had one of the pleroma sours (so good) then the Three times Three collab and then ended with the basil Hayden barrel aged stout- wow! Cheers and thanks for the great experience and beer!
Great pizza. Had the 1 and 2, both dope. Awesome beer. For sure try the three x three. Very friendly people. Here for a week, went twice which is rare
We ordered a pizza, waited quite a while, and when I finally managed to ask the waiter about the delay, she returned claiming I had said I didn't want the pizza. This felt like a clear attempt to shift blame and avoid responsibility rather than address the forgotten order. Poor service.
It's a really good place both during the day and at night. The pizza and beer are excellent. Also the staff is very polite and friendly.

Stigbergets Fot is a trendy bar run by a brewery, offering a vibrant atmosphere and an extensive selection of beers. The venue is known for its thick and meaty burgers, although some visitors have found the patties to be dry when ordered without condiments. Despite this, the food receives high praise overall, with recommendations for the juicy dry-aged beef patty and flavorful sweet potatoes. The staff are described as friendly and attentive, adding to the positive experience.
If I was living in Stockholm this would be a place I would go regularly or every day. Eventhou I recommend to have a reservation, even on a week day evening the bar was full. But everything was great. Great variaty of craft beers, great food - burgers were delicious, however the bun could use some improvement, both nachos with cheese and with meat were great. Great and helpful service, great atmosphere and also great and not so known liquors as cyser. We had a really great time and definitely will return when I'm back in Stockholm!

I had an excellent experience dining here. The food was outstanding—every bite was fresh, and flavorful. The menu has a great selection of burgers, chicken sandwiches, and local beers, making it easy to find something for everyone. Service was top-notch as well; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out quickly without ever feeling rushed. It’s rare to find a place that combines great food, fast service, and such a welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality meal and a relaxed, enjoyable dining experience.
As an amateur of craft beers I was impressed by the amount and quality of beer offered in this bar! About 45 beers, it was hard to choose but luckily the staff knows their beers very well and gives good recommendations :) The food was also great! If you’re looking for craft beers that’s the place!
This place is known for their own brews and, of course, there are plenty of drinks to choose from. It is usually crowded during the nights and situated in a turisty spot.
what I found interesting is that their hamburger was delicious but when searching hamburger on google map it didn't show this place at all!
definitely recommend it to try the drinks and food.
Second time at this restaurant and it was a pleasure all over again. The food is awesome, the atmosphere is nice and the staff is super friendly. Definitely would recommend.
Really great bar!! Fun beer selection, good vibe, and we didn’t get the food but really wished we did. Clearly very popular and they could easily fill a bigger space. I’m sure if I lived in Stockholm I would totally come here all the time!
We tried the double cheeseburger with fries, served with Mojo Rojo mayo, pickles, Cheddar cheese, and red onion. The beef is dry-aged, resulting in beautifully intense and rich flavours. The seasoning was spot on, enhancing the overall depth of the dish.
However, I did find myself missing an element of crispiness. Neither the meat nor the bun offered any real texture or crunch, which left the overall mouthfeel a bit too soft—albeit delicious. Additionally, I’m not particularly fond of sliced onions, which tend to trail off with each bite. Finely chopped onion would have offered a neater and more enjoyable alternative.
One of the best craft beer places in Stockholm. Not only serve Stigbergets. Food is good.

If you're looking for a unique experience in Stockholm, look no further than Stockholm Brewing Co. This vibrant brewery not only offers engaging tours where you can explore the brewing process but also provides delightful beer tastings that showcase their diverse range of brews. To elevate your visit, consider pairing your tour with a meal at their restaurant, which is known for its exceptional lunch offerings. Diners rave about the quality of the salad buffet, homemade bread, and delicious desserts—all complemented by freshly roasted coffee.
Stockholms best lunch??? I'm no expert, but quite possibly!
Quality in everything, from the sallads buffet to the homemade bread, to the dessert and the on-site roasted coffee........which is all included with lunch!
If you are down in Frihamnen, or even if not, get yourself here to try lunch. The weekly menu is available on Stockholms Brewing website.
P.S It might sound like it, but I assure you, I am not affiliated in anyway to Stockholm Brewing. Just a very happy customer!

Lost Its Spark: Disappointed and Not Returning
I visited this brewery one year ago and I LOVED its indie vibe and unique decor with old TVs. Unfortunately, I visited again the brewery last week and the atmosphere has changed dramatically; it now feels like a basic lunchtime restaurant with daily deals, losing its charm. The beer is still excellent, but with the door left open, it was cold as hell inside, making it uncomfortable. Given these changes, I won’t be returning, as the experience isn’t worth the trip from Stockholm Central, even for the good beer.
I love to find and explore local breweries. Its about 30 minutes on a bus from Stockholm City Centre.
Stockholm Brewing Co did not disappoint. Good selection of ales. Indoor and Outdoor seating. Inside you can see into where the beer is brewed (something I love about breweries ❤️). They do food, but I only come for the beer.
I wish they had better opening hours and were open later on other days and open after 20.00 😥
For any beer connoisseur out there, this is a place you have to visit
A little rough for my style. But the service was superb.
Beer is good but they don’t really follow the law. If you sell alcohol you need to have prepared/warm food, they don’t even have peanuts and the response was that the chef didn’t had time to make food because it was busy with a table that had like 10 people.
Just make a hot dog, fries, nachos, something basic, then you don’t risk your alcohol license. Completely incompetent management.
For lunch they have 3 weekly dishes to chose from, meat, fish or vegetarian.
The price of 159kr also included a high-end sallad bar, bread as well as a small coconut-cake and their coffee made with home roasted beans.
I ordered the meat dish, which where some kind of stake with a green pepper sauce. It felt fresh and well prepared.
Staff was friendly and the place felt modern. I liked that they have a large window where you can see into the brewery from the dining area, which is fun to watch.
Overall they offer great value and the restaurant is well worth a visit for lunch.
The lunch deal is available on weekdays between 11-14.
(Translated by Google) The worst lunch I have ever had. It took almost half an hour to get the food - then they had cooked the wrong dish for six out of eight people. The two who got it right got rice that wasn't fully cooked and had to ask for another dish. The second dish had overcooked risoni and was far from a gastronomic experience. When the rest of us got our caesar salads after another few minutes, the salad was soggy, dressing and parmesan and croutons were missing. The chicken was dry as hell and half of the bacon was barely cooked while the other half was charred. A Caesar salad should be impossible to fail and not take half an hour to make. We received no apology and no compensation. None of us ate or left full.
(Original)
Den sämsta lunchen jag någonsin har varit med om. Tog nästan en halvtimme att få maten - då hade de lagat fel rätt till sex av åtta personer. De två som fick rätt fick ris som inte var färdigkokt och behövde be om att få en annan rätt. Den andra rätten hade överkokt risoni och var långt ifrån en gastronomisk upplevelse. När vi andra fick våra ceasarsallader efter ytterligare minuter så var salladen blöt, det saknades dressing och parmesan och krutonger. Kycklingen var snustorr och hälften av baconet var knappt tillagat medan den andra hälften var förkolnad. En ceasarsallad borde var omöjlig att misslyckas med och inte ta en halvtimme att göra. Vi fick ingen ursäkt och ingen kompensation. Ingen av oss åt upp eller gick därifrån mätta.
(Translated by Google) Without a doubt the best salmon pudding I've ever eaten!
Delicious salmon, creamy custard and perfectly crispy potatoes.
And you get a little sweet treat with your coffee.
Cozy place with high ceilings, just the right amount of chill background music and a staff that makes you feel right at home even though it's your first visit.

Den utan konkurrens bästa laxpudding jag ätit!

Bierhaus is a German-themed beer hall located in Vasastan, Stockholm. It offers a genuine and classic beer hall environment with an urban pub feeling, inspired by the 1930s Bauhaus. The menu features traditional German dishes such as Wurstplatte, Schlachteplatte, Wienerschnitzel, and Schweinshaxe.
This little gem is amazing, so happy we found it. Lovely staff and the food is A M A Z I N G!
Lovely flavors and real genuine menu. Tried stuff air never had before.
Will go back over and over... so see you soon!

The beer selection is very good, especially for German beers. The sausages and fries are really good, the flammen kuchen and Ruben sandwich are about average. Staff is friendly.
I will go here again for the beer and sausages.
We’ve been craving German food for ages, and we were thrilled to find this place. Even on a weekday, it was packed, which is a good sign. We were seated right away and ordered bretzel, wienerschnitzel, and wurstplatte. The bretzel was delicious, just like the ones we had in Germany. The schnitzel was also good, and it reminded me of the one we had in Vienna. However, we were a bit surprised by the wurstplatte. The description said it was a mix of sausages, but what came up was pork knuckles. So, they mixed up our orders, and it took a while to get our food again. We were starting to get hangry! Thankfully, the pork knuckles were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. There were no complaints except that we got a sore throat from eating oily food.
In short, the food was good, but the service was slow. I’m not sure if they were short-staffed or if the kitchen was just slow and behind.
Good for party but not for meet-ups as their is lot of noise. Lot of non alcoholic drink options. I tried passion fruit & that was good 😊
The octoberfest vibes were good. They also have variety of beer.
Good German beer options.
The food is good and the atmosphere is ok. It has a mix between a restaurant and German beer hall.
Upon entering they played some traditional German music, but it changed to a shuffled playlist of English songs sung in German. It changed the mood of the place and was actually quite annoying. It cut my visit short.
Tip: get the pork hock! People mainly come for beer here and pretzels. Lots of communal seating. Service here is so so. Not too friendly but efficient. Food orders can take up to an hour so order early
Pretty good from a Bavarian perspective. Some of the German beer choices are a bit odd, but maybe that's a personal taste issue. The main reason I came here is, because they serve #VeganCurrywurst and it was delish. You can order a standard version (just sausage +fries) or a deluxe version (added krautsalat and pickles). Portions are on the large side and service was friendly and efficient. I'd give this place 5 stars if they had more vegan options or an expanded dessert section on the menu - think Kaiserschmarrn or Germknödel. Still, worth going for the currywurst. According to my omnivore co-diners, the meat version was very good, too.

BrewDog Kungsholmen - A Mixed Experience
The atmosphere at BrewDog Kungsholmen was warm and inviting. We ordered a burger with a German Coca-Cola and some chicken wings.
The burger was tasty, but the chicken wings were disappointing—some were undercooked near the bone, which was concerning. For 199 SEK, receiving only 10 wings without fries felt expensive, especially given the quality.
The German version of Coca-Cola tasted watered down, which didn’t help. Although they offer all-you-can-eat wings on Wednesdays, I’m not sure I’d return for wings.
Pros:
1. Very accommodating and friendly staff.
2. We brought a large dog with us and she felt right at home immediately upon entering the restaurant because they provided a dog bed, bone, and water dish for her to enjoy.
3. There are also board games on a shelf for patrons to borrow.
4. The food was great.
Cons:
1. They were out of an ingredient for my first choice on the menu, so I had to pick a different option. Not really a huge deal, just a bummer.
2. We were placed next to the stairs, which was a perfect spot next to the dog bed, however, the stairs could use a bit of dusting. Easy fix.
3. Prices are a tad high, but that’s just my opinion.
Overall we had a wonderful time. Thank you!
Heard a good thing and get disappointed. 159kr for 4 pcs off small chicken and mountain of fries, also a kimchi that is actually pickled onion,
209kr for 10pcs chicken wing which are small,
However, the chicken glaze is good, especially the Korean chicken,
Good atmosphere tho, seems like a cool place for people to hang out,
Nice atmosphere. The wings were good, especially the Korean and Buffalo ones. Good selection of beers. Being able to queue songs was fun and a great idea.
The staff was great. Super friendly, attentive and just overall great service.
The food was good. I purchase the Wednesday unlimited hot wings för 249 sek and also a beer, can't remember the price of the beer but, the price is fair I think.
The first round of wing is great with a lot barbecue sauce, the the second and third round they look like just frozen hot wings you get from the grocery store and put lines of barbecue sauce. This only applied for the straight barbecue wings because the other flavor such as buffalo sauce they were all fully with their own sauce every round. I will go again and taste a different meal. The atmosphere is good and the service is great. .
Great beer selection, wings need work.
I recently visited BrewDog and was impressed by their extensive beer collection. They have a wide variety of styles to choose from, so there's something for everyone. The service was also excellent – the staff were helpful and explained the ingredients when asked. However, I was disappointed with the chicken wings. They were overly vinegary, and all the wings flavors tasted quite similar.
Overall, I would recommend BrewDog for the beer and great service, but I would suggest trying something else on the menu besides the wings.
Also if you are going in a group it's better to book in advance.
Love this kind of place. Simple, great bear, kind staff, good Burger. Nothing to complaint.

Mikkeller Stockholm (Södermalm) is an intimate bar and bistro with a casual vibe, adorned with antique tools.

The staff is known for being super helpful and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Visitors can enjoy a large selection of draft craft beers, including guest beers from various countries.
Amazing, cozy and intimate atmosphere with tens of beer types. Staff is helpful and eager to spare the time to tell us about the beer variety. I cannot quite remember the beers we had, but we all enjoyed them.
We had margherita pizza. The dough was good but marinara was not very tasty, rather bland. The pizza could use some seasoning like salt and ground pepper, and maybe more basil and olive oil to finish.
I’d very much recommend this little bar to experience different beers, especially tasty IPAs, and to see the lovely art.

I had a great time at Mikkeller Bar in Stockholm! The place is beautifully designed, with a modern and artsy vibe that makes it really stand out. The artistic details throughout the space give it a creative and relaxed atmosphere.
The beer selection is excellent, with a wide variety of high-quality craft beers to choose from. Whether you're into hoppy IPAs or something more experimental, there's something for everyone.
Definitely a great spot to enjoy good beer in a cool and inspiring environment. I'll gladly come back!
Every time when in Stockholm, I try to get here for something new and interesting. Like a lot that bartenders are always so friendly and ready for advice. Today had like 3 different types of beer, and each one was exactly matching the mood and wishes. Lovely!
Just bear in mind, coming along on Saturday evening - you might miss like I missed last time, the queue had its tail far in the street :)
Nice place!
Favorite tap room in Södermalm! Friendly staff. You will find a beer to your liking. They also have non-Mikeller beer. Wine and liquor, too! Mango margaritas are 😋. While there are only a few pizza options, everyone will find one of their spectacular pizzas options to suit them.
I liked Mikkeller, there’s an effortlessly cool thing going on here. You’ve got craft beer, you’ve got knowledgeable and helpful bar staff, you’ve got relaxed clientele (some of whom will be playing cards) and to top it off you’ve got pizza. The thinking drinker’s choice.
The location is super close the train station, only 5 minutes walk.
They have plenty of craft beers you could try and enjoy.
The atmosphere is very friendly and not loud, good for hanging out with friends or just chilling alone is fine too.
They also have pizza and non-alcoholic options.
Cozy two-floor bar with a nice selection of craft beers. Some others nearby had pizzas which looked great. Bar staff very polite and helpful!
Got two beers, last two I’ll ever get in this establishment. Beer was half foam and bartender couldn’t care any less. There was no rush and he had all the time in the world to fix it but told us to move along. NOT WORTH IT

Pretty good lunch with three main options, plus a nice salad bar and fresh bread.
Even though there wasn’t a vegan option listed on the menu, they were able to offer a vegan meal, which was great. The food was tasty overall — but unfortunately, one of the dishes had pieces of eggshell in it, which was a bit disappointing :(
I haven't eaten here, so I can't rate the food, but this is one of the best Belgian beer bars outside of Belgium you're gonna find. The wide selection and impressive knowledge demonstrated by the bartenders make this a must visit for beer connoisseurs. Also, while not being the most important part of the experience, it's a very nice touch that all beers are served in the specific brand glass.
It is a cozy and nice place , it is a heaven for beer lovers. The food was delicious, but I think the portion size was a bit small for the price. However, the staff were friendly and very attentive. If you decide to try it, I have no doubt you'll have a lovely dining experience. Thank you for the pleasant experience!
Fantastic mushroom-filled Cannelloni - one of the best meals out I’ve had for a while.
A good dark beer added to the experience.
Recommended if you’re in Stockholm.
Lovely place with tones of atmosphere, the selection of beers is out of this world Im guessing over 50 but I can be corrected, they also had the odd Cider and wine for those not wanting beer. The food was very good, I had mussels to start which had fabulous flavour's. Burger for a main which was great but I was stuffed from eating too much bread with the mussels sopping up all the source!
Attended as part of a large group, and the staff did an excellent job keeping drinks topped up and catering to the many dietary needs of the group. Food was excellent. The only downside was that it was so loud it made it difficult to talk to anyone other than those immediately next to you.
To commence with- the quantity could be bit less(pertaining to food only)compared to what one would have expected, but they excel in quality, authenticity and service. They were out of mussels and monkfish which was a pity, however the appetiser with bone marrow was exquisite(well first time for me, so I was tad bit confused on which portion to eat and how :) and the Belgian truffle dessert was tiny, but delicious. In the beer department however, there were plethora of options and the few I tried all were awesome.

The reindeer steak was excellent (first time for me), the duck was also excellent as was the eggplant and the salmon. Such a lovely place.
Went here for my Birthday and I will say this was a highlight meal for my trip. I had the Reindeer and my Girlfriend had the Venison. Both were very tender and did not have a strong gamey taste. Our waitress recommended we try the foraged mushrooms which were specific to the season and they were delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant especially if you are looking to try different meats.
Great vegetarian burger and mushroom starter in an otherwise meat filled menu! The burnt butter ice cream is great as well. Comes with yellow berries which are extremely sweet but have a lot of seeds. Several non alcoholic beer choices.
We had a fantastic evening at Ardbeg Embassy. I ordered the reindeer, perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful, while my wife had the classic Swedish meatballs, which were rich and delicious. We also tried some craft beers, which were excellent, though this place is truly a whisky lover’s paradise. Warm atmosphere, great service, and outstanding food, highly recommended.
Whisky temple, Christofer was such a nice host, wery friendly and resoureful, he gave me best souvenir and you can try whiskey from the barrel, also some limited editions, all the best from Ivan :)
A must visit place as a whisky lover.
They have a great selection of beers on tap aswell.
Great service, and nice emplyees.
Keep it up;
We will be back as always!
I think I have never seen so many different bottles of alcoholics all together in my whole life. Definitely they care about it and know what they talk about.
I had dinner at the bar counter cos I didn't book. It was Midsommar's Eve and only in Gamla stan I finally found open places for eating.
I chose this one because it didn't seem to be crowded with clueless tourists. There were tourists, but they were "of a certain type".
It is elegant but not in a classical awkward way. I had the classical meatballs with cider. The food was good and the bread? Omg I love Swedish bread. I got warm soft thick bread with salty butter. I ate it all 😅.

Kvarnen is a historic oak-paneled restaurant and lively beer hall located in the center of Sodermalm, serving classic Swedish dishes such as their famous meatballs. The bar has been a staple since 1908 and is even mentioned in Stieg Larsson's 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.' With its high ceilings, arched windows, and copper pipework, Kvarnen has preserved its historic charm.
We came with the tour and it was fantastic! I had mixed luck with the pickled herring liking two of the three but overall really enjoyed the food. Being pescatarian, we didn’t eat the Swedish meatballs but they got rave reviews for our other tour members. The chef made us mushroom and pomegranate dumplings that were fantastic! The IPAs were delightful and very different. Out server was friendly and so accommodating- I would definitely come back!

Fantastic experience at Kvarnen! The atmosphere is authentic and welcoming, perfect for enjoying delicious traditional Swedish dishes. The manager is super friendly, as are all the waiters — great service and good vibes all around. The food was amazing, and to top it off, the place turns into a lively dance floor at 10 p.m.! A must-visit if you want to experience true Swedish culture and have a fun night out in Stockholm. 🇸🇪✨
Busy restaurant serving traditional Swedish food. RESERVATIONS ARE A MUST! I was there on a Thursday evening and there were no tables available for walk-in guests. The food & wine was delicious! I was surprised to see so many fun cocktail options. I’ll be back when I have more time to enjoy one of those!
Good option to try local Sweedish dishes. Welcoming is very warm and the interior is characteristic that makes you feel you are in professional place.
We have tried Sweedish meatball, deer meat, and red wine. Finished with creme brulee which was really very good!
The prices might be a bit pricey but worth it.
Great food and atmosphere, but a special thanks to the lady responsible for the reception (Aug 5th night). She saw I was a tourist interested in the local gastronomy, and she offered me a great attention suggesting dishes, explaining the origin of each item in the plate, from which part of Sweden they are, etc. Persons like her turn out dinner into an unforgettable experience.
Good food. This was my first ever dinner in Stockholm. Really good food for me welcoming to Stockholm! The vibe is cozy and great. Service was also great.
A well-known and popular restaurant in the heart of the well-known neighborhood of Södermalm. It is located close to the Medborgarplatsen metro station. I did not have a reservation and did not experience their best service. I ordered the lunch of the day, which was a Wallenberger (it tasted ok).
The place is cozy and the interior is a bit old-fashioned, probably an attempt to preserve the original environment.
We arrived on a Saturday evening (party of four) and after a short wait at the bar (whilst tasting a local beer) we got a table within 10’.
The food is tasty, the service on point and the place is, well you’d have to find out 😊

Really nice restaurant with a great variety of craft beers. Fair prices, the food was great and service really helpful and nice. They know the menu well, were able to recommend a beer and overall we had a great time in Akkurat.
For a sunny Sunday afternoon the atmosphere was disappointing. A few people, but pretty dull. No buzz.
The beer we tried was very good. However, it was outrageously over priced.
I get it. It's a specialty craft beer and they cost more than your average mass produced offering. I've been drinking craft beers all over the world for over 30 years.
On a quality to value scale, Sweden comes in at the very bottom. Some reasonable beers at totally unreasonable prices.
In all fairness, this venue is not alone with their price gouging policy. It's a Sweden wide malaise.
In conclusion if you just want to try one or two beers the quality is acceptable. Make sure to bring your own group of friends for entertainment.
If you're in for an extended session of craft beer indulgence, take a flight to any one of many European cities for a weekend.
You'll find a far better selection, better quality, and it will cost you a whole lot less. Even after you pay for fares and accommodation.
Don’t let the template decorations fool you—this is a beer- and whiskey nerds’ heaven. Can be quite crowded. Bartenders are knowledgable. Offer casks and all sort of whiskeys imaginable. Local spot.
Extensive selection of beer and mussels! Their menu has other food options too. Friendly and efficient service staff.
Was staying in a hotel nearby and wanted something lite to eat so we stopped there had
HALLIOUM cheese on a bun came with french fries we also had the Swedish meatballs and one beer and in my opinion, it was quite pricey indoor outdoor seating limited menu
Worst Mulle I ever had, didn't feel herbs or even vine in it. Garlic bread which didn't taste like garlic. A burger that costs more than the best burger place but it has only 1 tomato, 1 leaf of lettuce, bread fried in butter, little bit of mayo and a patty I payed 225 Sek for that horrible. Vibe was good at first but after the worst food I stopped caring for vibe
Meat was very good. Huge choice of beers. Good service.

My husband and I had a 3 coursse meal here which was included in the price of the hotel stay's romantic package. My husband had the shrimp toast with onion and chives, and the Salmon. I had the Steak. We also had waffles and sour cherry. This is a great place to eat and worth a try. It's a very lively atmosphere and the place was full so consider booking.
Oh I don't eat seafood but just about everyone was eating muscles. Must be great.

Came here for the mussels but was at the wrong szn. Mussels szn are months that ends with "R".
Ordered the Friday lunch menu, for the mussels and fries. Fries were amazing. Still crunchy even after 20-30mins, enjoyed it.
Ordered the fish as a main, served with amazing sauce at the side.

We had the mussels marina today. Unfortunately no white wine at all! Very small mussel meat which indicates that the original product was not good. If organic local product then please top quality and not sale. I would consider whether the supplier is the right one, I had the impression that the employees were not happy either. Which does not mean that the service was slow or unprofessional
I love Belgian food and beer, but this place provides service below zero.
At first we were seated at a tiny table. I asked three times if we can change a table, and finally we were heard and suggested another table.
The second table was dirty and full of crumbs. That didn’t confuse the waiter, and he put all the menus, napkins and cutlery for us on the dirty table. Well, okay.
Thanks a lot, amazing experience for this kind of place! I would not give this place a second chance.
Just came here for drink . So many types of Beer and Bartender has good recommendations for the beer . Love it
For tourists. Food was ok but the service was slow and transactional. (The breakfast here through the Freys Hotel is however, exceptional and the service is good too).
The owner, Jack, and his team showed us amazing hospitality. We loved the traditional Swedish meatballs, the three sausages plate, and the Bavarian lager. The food, and especially the beer, were fantastic and we’ll be making this part of any Stockholm trip we take in the future!
We LOVED both of our nights at this restaurant & bar. The first night we stopped in for drinks and loved the place so much we had dinner there the next night. The staff was super kind and friendly. The bartender helped us make reservations for our meal the next night. What a delicious dinner. My husband had the mussels with chiles and cream and loved them. I had the fillet with potatoes. The wait staff recommended excellent beers for both nights. A cozy, friendly place to stop while in Stockholm!

Very interesting pub next to Stockholm's main station. They have many different beers to choose from. If the service is maybe not the best you could find, I must say that the Food was particularly good! Salmon with mash as well as the famous köttbullar were truly excellent! We did not expect to eat that well when we picked that place for a quick lunch after a long travel.
A great little gem in Stockholm, which we found cheaper than most places and Stockholm is quite expensive. We had lunch here once and came here for a drink over three days. It's a great place. Just a note, cocktails are not served during lunch time.
This hamburger was delicious but the beer, even better.
The best pub I visited in Stockholm. The staff are very friendly, talkative and welcoming & the place has a great old pub vibe. The beer selection is really good as they also have many imported beers, specifically from Belgium. Location wise it's in the middle of the city center, definitely recommend going there!
My wife and I came here this afternoon for an early dinner.
We are both vegan, so we're happy to see two vegan meals available. The AUBERGINESCHNITZEL (Aubergine Schnitzel), and the DEN GRÖNA BURGAREN (The Green Burger). Both were very tasty. We would definitely be back for the meals.
Rather than a 5 star rating, they get a 4 star rating. They lose a point on unwiped tables. We walked in and all tables hadn't been cleaned from previous diners.
You also have to order meals and drinks at the bar. They don't do table service.
Good service, good food.. reasonable price . Conveniently located next to the train station.
Pretty good showing of flavour on the burger. West Indies Guinness highly recommended for Guinness lovers of that flavor-profile on the stronger side.
Adequate variety of seating options. Clean washrooms. A few blankets available. Commendable selection of brews with simple but appetizing food.
Excellent Location for Rainy days, people watching, public transport commute with a cozy happy-hour feel at that time. Manager Daniella was warm, kind and engaging. Staff are equally as polite with just the right garnish of helpfulness.
Wonderful English-Pub Feel !!

There are two branches of this restaurant in Stockholm, so be careful when making a reservation! We accidentally booked the other location, but the staff here were very helpful and managed to cancel it and find us a table. When we first arrived, the noise level was quite high — it was hard to even have a conversation — but it got more relaxed later in the evening. The food was okay, but nothing particularly special. On the plus side, there were some fun and different drink options to choose from, which added to the experience.
It was my last night is Sweden, I had dinner here. Overall I enjoyed the food and 3 beers, starting from ale to stout.
Visiting from the UK. Brewdog is my go to ale.
The bar is nice, plenty of seating and a good selection of brewdog ales.
Location wise.. for me it was great 5 minutes from my hotel on one of them scooters. It is about 20 minutes on public transport from Stockholm central.
The only downside its very expensive. I had one Hazy Jane (was not even a pint) and cost £9
Wings were OK but I liked my buffalo wings drenched in buffalo sauce and the wings were only drizzled in sauce. Also I'd have preferred Frank's buffalo sauce but this one was decent. It took a bit over 15 mins between the first hatch of wings and the second to arrive which I think is a bit slow. Otherwise the all you can eat wings are good value for money. Dide note, toilets are falling apart.
I think the strawberry daiquiri wasnt quite what I was expecting ( my own fault ) but the Elvis beer was an interesting mix up! not bad overall
One of the coziest spots I know in town!
Unique craft beers, both in-house and imported ones, which seem chosen with good care.
The bar staff are there to offer sincere tips, allowing you to find you your kind of drink. The food menu, though international, has a unique quality to it, too.
TBH, I keep coming back here!
Really cozy atmosphere with great staff and beer selections. I got superb service from Josephina, Inês and Kris.
Has quickly become my favourite bar, would highly recommend going there.

We visited this place around lunchtime.
The location is lovely, especially on a beautiful day.
It has a bit of a fast-food kiosk vibe, but maybe that's what they’re going for.
The beers were high quality, in an Omnipollo-style, but quite pricey.
The burgers were top-notch and tasted excellent – possibly the best burger I've had in a long time!
A gem of a place. Both the loaded fries and the chicken burger were sublime. Chilled out vibe in the park. If I come back to Stockholm, this is the place I would most look forward to returning to.
This place is amazing! The bartender is extremely knowledgeable and gives great beer recommendations. Their delicious plant-based options for food make it really easy for vegans. I was very impressed by the plant-based fish & chips made with banana blossoms.
If I could give this place 10 stars I would! I had just had a horrible experience at a restaurant two blocks down but needed to get something for my daughter to eat before we headed to the playground. The vibes of this place were immaculate from the very beginning! I was greeted so warmly and they even made sure to say hi to my daughter. We ordered a garlic burger vegan for me and a regular child burger. They were sooo good! The music was also pretty great and not only was I grooving but so was my little one. Def will be back soon!
Loaded fries, delicious sour pear ale, beautiful music - perfect park vibes.
Nice terace to enjoy sun, park and good locally crafted beers.

Looking for craft beer? Don't go here. When you come in, it looks like they have an impressive range of them. That's not true. It turns out that they are out of more or less all of them and they suggest you buy anything they are over stocked of instead. But you pay what it would cost on a craft beer pub anyway.
A lovely little bar with a great choice of beer. After not being able to get in anywhere else at 2am the flying dog was welcoming. Nice friendly staff and a fantastic beer selection! Fair price for stockholm too! 5 star for me!
Decent place, friendly staff and a very good selection of good beers. Price is tho pretty high compared to other bars.
We came here couple of times. Very nice atmosphere, with happy and well behaving customers. Service was professional and friendly. Overall a great place to visit!
Don't go here, it's a scam!
Beer lovers might be acctracted by all the taps, but a lot of them aren't in use, and who knows if the ones that are even serve the beer that's advertised. Then there's the prices, they're not posted, but you can be sure it's too much, we paid 298kr for 2 beers.
And we couldn't even finish them, because they turned up the terrible music so loud, just to get us out again
Visited it with my colleagues. Personell appeared to be confused. Was ignored iniatially. Asking for simple water…. out. Offered me Sprite…. looks similar yes. Also looks a bit worn out the place
This is one of those complicated places. Hate n Love kind of place. Hate the poor beer knowledge and staff attitude from time to time. There are exceptions of course. Prices are also a bit steep to be honest.
Love the convenience when you’re not in the mood for belgos at Pressklubben or Belgobaren or when Bishops is packed with little new on display. Also love the fact they often put great beer on tap. And not just the standard fare, but some pretty decent beers you won’t find in that many places nearby.

Good beer and great selection of Aquavit. On our first night in Stockholm with a bit of jet lag we ended up here late at night, and had a great time trying some local beer and aquavits. A quick bite (pork croquettes) was also good, but wished the portion was larger. I'd like to note that we only visited the back pub, didn't have experience with the restaurant for dinner, but the ambiance and dishes that were being served look quite appealing. Service was great, I must add.
Zum Franziskaner is in a great location and has an excellent beer selection, with a traditional, rustic atmosphere that adds to the charm. The staff were friendly and the service welcoming. My schnitzel was decent but unfortunately on the tough side, and I would probably not order it again given alternatives on the menu. Overall a solid spot to enjoy classic food and quality beer.
A fantastic experience! This German beer bar served an incredible specialty brew with rich flavor and perfect balance. The atmosphere was warm, lively, and genuinely welcoming exactly the kind of place where you can relax and enjoy great beer. Highly recommended!
Absolutely loved the place. Me and my colleague came pretty early but without reservation. Lucky to get small table for 2 in corner. The pork knuckle was best in my life. Smoked beers also amazing. Get a reservation!
Amazing food, welcoming atmosphere, really nice and kind staff! We were there two times — at first, about two years ago, and also today. Both experiences were super tasty and comfortable.
This is going to be one of our favorite places in Stockholm ❤️ Thanks a lot!
Lovely German dishes, we had two Flammkuchen. One per person was not enough for dinner, so we ordered some more food. The staff was very kind, and seating both inside and outside were cosy. Also quite a few beer options.

Review Update - I hadn't seen the response from The Old Brewer from my previous visit, but seeing the consistently good reviews, decided to give it another shot.
I'm happy I did.
I was surprised that they recognized me from my previous visit and was very impressed how they walked me through what had happened last time and their absolute commitment to being an amazing place to dine. Gary (forgive me for naming people) went out of his way to make sure my experience was great. Thank you!
1) Love their beers. Go there and try some out. I stuck with a Czech lager which was great but next time will try some of their guest taps.
2) The Beef Wellington was really flavorful and the perfect size meal. I also had the Beer Battered Sausage with HP Sauce which was a great starter and makes me want to go back and try the Brewer´s Signature Sausages next time.
3) The Sticky Toffee Pudding with Toffee Sauce is truly evil! :) So good.
Every restaurant has a one-off, whether be a good or bad night, but its the places that consistently deliver a good experience and meal. The only way to do that is by always improving and The Old Brewer Public House is obviously committed to that. I look forward to going back again!
Original review:
Mixed feelings on the Old Brewer Public House.
1. Their hours show closing at 10:30 but when I arrived at 9:00 I was informed that only fish and chips were available. Now I wasn't too disappointed since I had fish and chips the last time and they were good. Bad choice
2. I was asked to close out my check at 9:45 at last call as they were closing at 10:00 p.m. Now, that might just be a matter of updating their hours but a bit disappointing as I was looking forward to trying a few beers.
3. The fish and chips we're okay. They had a thick batter which frankly is not to my taste and even peeling off a bit where the fish seemed a bit dry. The one thing I did like was the mashed peas, but otherwise it was a little mediocre which goes against what I've read in previous reviews (and my previous experience).
4. Service was quite transactional with a order now so we can close up kind of feeling.
My recommendation would be try this place earlier. I was really into trying their bangers & mash, as I was told those were pretty good but frankly not sure I will come back.

Food: we shared two small plates. One was the steak sandwich with Dijon and carmelized onions. The Dijon is pretty strong but the sweetness of the onions led to a balanced flavor. I found the bun a bit disappointing—what I would expect to eat in the U.S. but not in Europe. We also got the fried macaroni balls, which were tasty and had a nice presentation. The atmosphere was a bit underwhelming. It was a pretty plain bar with a small outside seating area (mostly shaded at lunchtime). Our server was very friendly and on the ball.
Well my very first attempt at Beef Wellington, was a very enjoyable experience. A street seating and the ambiance provided by life on a side street was just right. I only wish I could also attempt their desserts.....older is wiser, so they say.
I visited this pub as my first in my first visit to Stockholm.
I asked them if they could make me a margarita even though it wasn't on their list, and they did. And I had fish and chips, big portion!
They speak perfectly English, many customers speak English. They are very nice.
About the prices, it depends on the Country u come from. For me Sweden is very expensive, therefore also this place is rather expensive, for my Country's standards.
There were many customers, and the place itself is very nice.
I came to this place on purpose to get a beef wellington, and they didn’t disappoint me. Really good meat, beautifully cooked, the sauce was a bit salty but it matched well the overall composition. I enjoyed the food and also the courtesy of the people working there.
Clarifications on the price: i had a beef wellington, 2 glasses of red wine and fries. So 700kr is in my opinion a fair amount.
Fantastic food and bar snacks. Beer is top notch too and the personal is both knowledgeable and super pleasant. Can't recommend the beef Wellington enough.
Wow! Superb! Food excellent, service excellent beer was excellent. I could praise this place enough. Staff were very warm and friendly remembering us from a previous visit. They went out of their way to find us a table even though they were full. A gem for Stockholm.
We got here for a few beers and some potatoes after a long meeting day during a work trip. Solid selection of classic, commercial beers plus the local craft ones on rotation, and props to the sauce accompanying the potatoes. Very good experience! The only minor nitpick, waiting a few minutes before being first served despite the quiet day, was outshone by the cashier successfully pulling off a major feat with the bill. Totally recommended.

Really nice, fun pub to drink and eat at. The craft beer was phenomenally good! Also highly recommend the fried pannoumi - a lovely Swedish cheese that has a similar consistency to halloumi but (I think) tastes even better.
One of the best beer places in town. Not a huge selection, but there’s always something interesting on tap and in the little fridge of bottles and cans. Lots of great Swedish brews and a surprising amount of great Estonian ones.
The people who work here are awesome, friendly and knowledgeable, they can usually find the perfect pick for you if you tell them what you like.
The place is quite small, but I’d recommend squeezing in, as a lot of people are waiting for a table in the adjoined restaurant so place usually frees up.
They also host a lot of interesting tap takeovers which seem to draw a lot of the local beer lovers.
Holy moly. One of the best underrated places around Gamla Stan. Truly legitimate and really proud to have visited this place.
Really good feel with the craft beers as well.
Very sweet staff and excellent vibe with classic music.
One of my favorite places. Cozy, welcoming and always something new on the tap list.
Regardless of who's behind the bar the service is top notch. Friendly, fast and knowledgeable service.

Victor is the best bartender in stockholm. Cool dude. Great bar, good drinks, decent enough prices.
Cold and good beer! Always open ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Okay place but I think far too expensive, 225 kr for an average halloumi burger was a bit too much. Good selection of beers.
Good selection of beer. I have been visiting this place from time to time over the years, sad to say it has getting down lately, a bit worn down, and last tine I was barked at for not knowing their special corona rules. Do I have to say I left and will wait a while to try it again. Hopefully the British barman had a bad day.

A lively and authentic Irish pub experience in Stockholm
My friends and I recently visited an Irish pub in central Stockholm, and it was a fantastic first-time experience! The pub had a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends. We were lucky to score a reservation because the place got quite busy, especially after the live music started around 7:30 pm. I even tried Irish coffee for the first time, and it was delicious!
For an appetizer, we shared a plate of their super crispy onion rings, which were a great way to start the meal. I tried their fish and chips, which was absolutely delicious and definitely a generous portion - one order could easily be shared between two people! While the fries weren't quite as impressive, everything else was spot on. The service was also fantastic. Overall, it was a great night out, and I would highly recommend this pub to anyone looking for a fun and authentic Irish pub experience in Stockholm.

Such a unique atmosphere! We had a great time, came for a drink and to watch a soccer game, and were pleasantly surprised with the service, the small bites and the underground ambiance. Quite authentic cellar rooms (some kind of hidden giving this place a magical touch), suitable for small or large parties. Chicken wings and loaded fries were really good, and so was the beer (local IPAs and Pilsners, in addition to the usuals) and the specialty Gin (Gunpowder with Brazilian Pineapple, can't find that anywhere but probably here and Ireland!). Nice pub with a great vibe, highly recommended!
My experience at Wirströms Pub in Stockholm was absolutely fantastic! The ambiance of the place is simply captivating, especially the underground chambers which exude a medieval charm that is both fascinating and beautiful. The decor creates a unique and almost surreal atmosphere that truly sets the mood for an unforgettable evening.
We had the pleasure of trying two delightful IPA beers, each bursting with flavor, perfectly complemented by a serving of crispy fries. It was a culinary delight that exceeded our expectations. And celebrating "fika" in such an alternative setting added an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience.
The staff at Wirströms Pub were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Their attentiveness and warmth truly enhanced our visit and left us with lasting memories.
I can't recommend it enough – thank you for a wonderful evening!
We had a beer break while passing by in our Stockholm visit. Definatelly a good coincidence! Staff is very friendly and warm, beer is good, and french fried are great!
Great beer selection and a lovely outside seating area. Good staff. What more can you ask for! Average price for Sweden. Lovely mosaic tables too!
My 1st time in Stockholm in 2018 I stumbled accross this pub, Im back in Stockholm again so had to visit
It hasnt changed, old rustic feeling inside.
Great bar and I'll be back during my stay
This is my 3rd time in Stockholm and I have finally found my place. Lovely fish and chips, and a great pint of Guinness (far better than the one I had in Dublin airport earlier today). It is a warren of hidden rooms and snugs and deceptively big. Plus the Monday trad session was a great suprise.
Also there were dogs!!
I really enjoyed the moment that I played the violin with all these amazing musicians!

Food is average. Meatballs were hard and the lasagna wasn’t the best. But if you’re looking for a cheap place to hang around for coffee in the middle of Gamla Stan, this place is very cozy and relaxed
Great food, cosy atmosphere and nice staff. Try cured reindeer and swedish meatballs
Tasty meatballs dish. Cosy, not crowded place. But waiter forgot our starter dish and brought main dishes only. Toilet was little bit smelly.
The staff were amazing and food was just as good. First time eating raindeer.
Very cosy place in the middle of the old town, good service and very tasty food:)
The staff is very nice and thoughtful, the place is cosy and the decoration is beautiful. The food is very good too, be it the meals and the dessert. Over my 5 days trip in Stockholm, we went there three times, returning there when we didn't want to search for another place to go. The only downside might be that it is easily crowded, but it won't impact my score here.
Massive cups of coffee (more like buckets), free wi-fi, awesome nutella waffles!

While the food portions are small, they are delicious, with sliders and buffalo wings being highly recommended.
Truly amazing through and through! Amazing service, tasty drinks (that dry but dirty salted mango martini!) and super delicious food. Immediately when we entered the small establishment, we knew we were in for a treat.
We loved all the food we ordered and as a SE Asian, all the dishes invoked nostalgia whilst also elevating old childhood favorites. Must try the tender yet crispy fried fish with their mushroom squid salad. Their cured hamachi starter was also a total umami bomb! I also love the fact that you can get free refills on your rice. Lastly, after eating all the food, their homemade medicinal shot (i.e. amaro) is the perfect digestif to cap your meal off.

This establishment offers a pleasant dining experience with a focus on burgers and beer. The food was decent and they have a nice variety of kraft beers.
Nice and spacious. A very good place for after work beer and wine.
I liked the mini hamburgers they're cool for a light night meal.
The pictures don't do it justice. A really cool taproom with local brews. A huge place with picnic tables for seating
Need to order beers at the bar and food in back. Beer great. Food is sliders with meat and veg options.
The place was packed with locals, so must be good.
Staff were excellent.
Recommend.
This place could be amazing. Unfortunately I'm always a bit disappointed in their choices of taps. I love the atmosphere though. Food is great.
I had the lunch meal, It came with 2 small bugers fried chips and a dip The taste is good but found the price a bit too high for the quantity of food. I paid 125 kr. They have a big seating arrangement...it's not busy after 2 pm...perfect place to relax and eat you burger. They have around 20 beers on tap..
This is good and will be super hip, but this isn't great! The beer selection and the placement is what will keep them busy, but the sliders is merely ok and the crisps are not a chip alternative. The jalepeno-cheeseballs are amazing, but for these prices more is expected!
Again, the beer and the hipsters will save them. But for how long will that work?
Really nice place. Among the best burgers in town. Serves sliders and a variety of small dishes. Wide range of beers from micro breweries. Works for all ages, casual and friendly wibe. Come as you are, bring the stroller and the kids. Friendly place.

definitely one of my favorite spots in Stockholm. Always good music, sometimes they have djs. Music is not too loud.
But the staff, my goodness, so kind and helpful. Ask for recommendations about what to drink, they guide you and you'll me amazed.
Do I sound in love? YES.
Do yourself a favor and have dessert.
I'll definitely come back.

Omaka provided a very pleasant experience. While their beers, their specialty, were indeed great, they also surprised us with some intriguing cocktails. The food was exceptional and offered great value for money. We thoroughly enjoyed the chicken and duck liver mousse on a waffle, the veal tartare, the scallops, and the pulpo – all of which were absolutely amazing.
WOW, just wow. Beers were absolutely delicious and the food was even better. Tried the Brussel Sprouts, chicken nuggets, chicken hearts, oysters, fish taco and risotto. Everything was what you'd expect, but with a left field riff that elevated the dishes. Julian looked after us brilliantly. Staff were engaging and knowledgeable. Thanks team.
Horrible service!
Went for their Oktoberfest menu. Had to wait a while to get any service and 45 min for food (from preordered menu) OR any drinks. Then my table companion got 2 free drinks as excuse and there was nothing offerered to me?! Felt extremely discriminated!
Lovely experience at the place. Nice seating, nice ambience n good vibe. They have brewery and wide variety of beers. Must go place for beer lovers 🍺
Food was presented beautifully and tasted awesome. You need to order small portions like 3-4 per person.
Also to mention: I especially liked the faucets in the washroom 😅. They were one of a kind.
What's not to like!
Fresh quality locally brewed beer on tap, a stunning selection of quality dishes with brilliant flavour combinations (the Rabiff or steak tatare is out of this world) and mix in a really cool and relaxed atmosphere and friendly wait staff at hand.....this is a solid winner.
Good ambience, a relaxed place for after work and dinner with friends. You don’t have to be a beer fan to enjoy the visit here :)
Food is tasty. My favorite is their OMAKA´s surdegsbröd that comes with “
Kyckling & anklever, pata negra, päron, picklad gulbeta, rostade macadamianötter” Yummy
The lamb was great as well.
We had a fantastic time at Omaka. More than pleased with the food and some very interesting beers. I recommend this place due to their way of experimenting and daring to challenge themselves. You will get an experience coming here. The nice staff will make you feel very welcomed. Enjoy your time

Omnipollos kyrka is a unique craft beer destination located in an old church in Stockholm. The bar, situated on the upper floors, offers a spectacular view of the production process. It's a pilgrimage site for beer enthusiasts, offering an excellent and diverse range of beers including specialities and rarities. The staff is knowledgeable about their offerings and on Sundays they offer brunch as well. The venue itself is impressive with its cracking setting and astonishing interior.
I guess you could say that this is a cultural experience from multiple points of view. Quality beer and one of the first in the craft scene outside the US. That alone is worth the visit. Secondly, it's housed in an old church that's been converted into a bar. Don't know if there are any other places like this anywhere.
The whole neighborhood is nice, bringing lots of good vibes. Worth the visit.

Absolutely amazing beers! A paradise for IPA lovers. Let me review based on different aspects -
1. Beers - As I write above, absolutely amazing! IPAs are awesome. Although I expected a wider range of beers considering it was a brewery yet they were just enough to delight our taste buds! Strongly recommend to try Omnipollos hatt, Tokyo rice IPA and Levon - Belgian Ale. Beware of the prices - beers here are expensive - 120-130 Sek range.
2. Food - Do not expect too many food options. We just ordered a couple of snack items and they were good.
The place was understaffed so it took long time to order and get the food.
3. Ambience and vibe - Ambience and vibe was good.
Loved it. The beer is amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our brewery tour and tasting. The menu for food is simple but the burgers we had were good quality and served promptly. However, the system for being served at the bar really needs some thought as it was slow and inefficient. We felt that some table service would have taken the pressure off and made the customer experience more enjoyable. Would we go back, yes! Would we go back on a Friday evening no!
Quality beer with a fresh perspective. I enjoyed this place for its excellent beer selection and unique atmosphere. It’s housed in an old church that’s been converted into a bar a one of a kind experience I hadn’t had before. There’s plenty of space, whether you’re visiting solo or with a group, making it a great spot for any kind of outing. You can pick up one of their available group games and play along some beers.
The bar also offers food and to my surprise the burgers were really good. I also loved the fries which you could order as extra.
Had a burger at Omnipollos Kyrka. The atmosphere is lively, but it was extremely hot inside and there’s a strong beer smell. The smash burger was okay. Seating isn’t comfortable, so it’s more of a quick eat-and-go place. Also, the “non-alcoholic” option didn’t seem truly 0.0%—ask before ordering. Overall, I wouldn’t come back.
Omnipollos kyrka is a former missionary church in Sundbyberg.
The nave—the central longitudinal part of the church (in Swedish långhus / mittskepp)—now houses the brewhouse.
The bar was moved up to the läktare (gallery, [ˈlɛkːtarɛ]).
When Omnipollo moved in, there was still an orgel (organ, [ˈɔrːjɛl]) in the corner—and it’s still there.
Great beer. That's enough, but the former church setting is something you'll probably not find anywhere else
Been on my bucket list for a while and finally made it ✌🏼Well worth a visit and a special place for beer lovers and other good folks.
Creative souls from Omnipollo bought a former church building from the municipality and created a vibrant venue for their brewery including bar and restaurant.
The combination of church and extraordinary beer turns this place into a new holy experience again where the angels are singing and you’ll be praying for the Big Beer God to allow you another round.

Can't buy alcohol over 3.5 in supermarket so have to go to these places. Great choices in there.
A little hard to find. If you enter Åhlens at the street level you need to go down 2 floors. Otherwise very conveniently located in the city center. It’s larger store with a wide selection of alcohols from many different countries.

Fun Nordic/Medieval restaurant with decent cooking, a very nice mead list, and great ambiance. Service was friendly but a little distracted.
Yes, there are no forks. Use the spoon, a knife, or your fingers (which you are invited to clean on the tablecloth).
Great medieval restaurant in the center of Stockholm. Ordered two dishes, one with lemon lasagna and the other one I cant remember unfortunately. Both were super tasty. Go there, order one main dish with Mead and then just enjoy the atmosphere ✨
Ps. Careful eyes can notice they dont give you a fork :)
Its very unique place to have a lunch or drink something!
Tunnan really gives you Sweden experience.
Also, I’d like to special thanks to dear Morris for his sincerely greetings and informations about the place and service that they give to us 🙏
I love Tunnan 💐
Interresting experience but limited menu. The soup was bland and cold and the dessert odd nd also bland. Once was enough! Reservations a must as limited nightly availability.
We wanted to dine in a more traditional place to feel the atmosphere of the old viking days and to taste a food resembling as close as it's possible the food in old days. This place turned out to satisfy perfectly our need. The staff was wearing old viking style clothing, the service was great, the food - very tasty. We drank mjöd, the fermented honey beer-like drink vikings were drinking once and we liked it!
Surprisingly we walked in on a Friday evening without a reservation and got a table right away. The place was definitely full, we just got lucky. Service was adequately prompt, we never waited for long. Food came after a reasonable amount of time. Food was really good! I was expecting mediocre quality and flavor coming from a tourist trap, but it was honestly good! I would eat here again! It was a tad pricey, but all things considered, it was worth it.
Words can not describe how great this place is. The medievil atmosphere, hospitality, Mead and recreated medievil food are just so good. Tried the chuck and the pork belly and they were divine. The chef is top class and knows exactly how to create such master pieces.
Every portion of each meal is carefully reconstructed even down to smoking the vegetables.
The underground viking restaurant is so well done capturing the atmosphere exquisitely.
Staff are dressed in viking commoner attire and really do a great job.
Cannot recommend this wonderful establishment enough for a true Swedish/Nord medievil experience.

The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, going out of their way to accommodate my intolerance to garlic, which I really appreciated. They also offer a variety of gluten-free options, which made it easy to find something delicious to eat.
The setting was beautiful, especially the veranda where I had lunch—it’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. The food itself was tasty, with the sweet potato fries being the absolute highlight! The barman was particularly nice, always smiling and creating a welcoming atmosphere.
20€, still hungry..
The fries cost 4€ (as an extra, the burger is without fries) are just random frozen fries I could get myself at the supermarket.
20€ for this, is NOT okay.
The burger I took is still good (the triple Smash), so 2 stars, but I feel like I've been robbed.
(I won't talk about the waiter who doesn't see us, and makes us wait 15 minutes to just get the menus, and then 15 min to make us order.)
Good atmosphere, another restaurant prioritizing marketing and image over quality, too bad.
Ordered street burger and fries. Taste ok. The price is a bit high. The burger meat is a little dry for me.
We each had a triple smash burger, rustic fries, a dip, and a Coca-Cola. We were the only guests in the restaurant, the very first to be served, yet details were still overlooked despite there being no pressure. Speaking of pressure, the waitress seemed extremely stressed and came across as rather hostile, even though we were the only ones there. Very peculiar.
The assembly of the burger itself could have been done with more care; it felt quite slapdash. The meat was rather chewy, and the bun was disappointingly dry — it hadn’t been toasted properly, which is odd given there was no stress in the kitchen. On the plus side, the onions and jalapeños were excellent and added some much-needed flavour.
I also found it somewhat overpriced. 277 SEK per person for a burger with fries, a dip, and a small Coca-Cola does seem a bit steep.
Next time, we’ll try some of the other burgers — hopefully they’ll be more to our satisfaction.
Almost 45 minutes waiting for a burger that finally arrived almost cold. The bun wasn’t great, lacked flavor, and the price was pretty high for what it was. There are way better burger places out there for less money… This one really isn’t worth it
Absolutely THE BEST burger in Stockholm! Lovely atmosphere, great service and the most delicious burgers and fries in town! They also have a great beer selection and good music! We have been going to Barrels for the past 6 years and it has never disappointed us! 10/10 highly recommend! 🍔 🍟 🍻 ❤️

Such a superb vibe with the cocktails. It has a super lit vibe. It was ranked in top 100 list of cocktail bars. Have been many a times for drinks but never went for food coz never managed their booking. Now when I went, food was great too. Starters tapas was nice. I would have liked to get some bread as an extra. But otherwise overall very good
This place rocks, we love it when we have visitors in town! We enjoy their food (tapas style) and their drinks, great cocktail menu!
Hands down one of my absolute favorite meals in Stockholm. The food and service were excellent! The cocktails were amazing too. Love the area this restaurant was in as well.
Referred to me by other bartenders, it certainly had some interesting cocktails on the menu. All delicious, it was hard to tell if they were busy or not. The inside was mostly empty, but the bartender was always making orders non-stop. It looks like I missed out on food, but I did enjoy the drinks. Close to a station, it's worth a stop by yo check out what they've done and can do.
Good cocktails! They have a wide selection that won some competitions and you can definitely ask for some recommendations to get something that you like or want to try!
Some of the best food I have had in Stockholm has been at Tjoget. I love that they change their menu on the regular. So if you're not loving the options, you know you don't have to wait too long to get new stuff. Right now, their tuna starter is amazing. The fritters served with hot sauce as well and the iberico is delicious. Cocktails are always great but they also have delicious non-alcoholic options that go beyond sparkling water, and I respect that! Great for a quick happy hour but equally good for a special dinner.
Got to this place with our (Swedish) group of friends after a strong suggestion that it would be fun late at night. Got there, not a line, the bar also was very spacious on the inside. However after a long discussion with the security at the door our friends informed us that they would only allow the Swedish part inside, and they didn’t want us (2 Europeans) to enter. We were not drunk, we are handsome, and were in very good spirits. It is very sad to see xenophobia plague a place like that. The doorman allowed even the drunkest of people inside and straight up declined us entry simply on the fact we were not Swedish. Avoid this place at all costs.

A nice cozy bar that mostly serves beer. I tried the local craft beer and it is good. Staff is friendly. It is a quite small shop indeed.
Excellent selection of Swedish craft beers. Had a PKLK DIPA. Also made the wife happy with a simple but effective selection of natural wines. Friendly service, chill music, overall great vibe. Do it.
Wouldn't have found this without local knowledge! Cosy beer bar without a bar, good tap range and some cans too. Feels relaxed and friendly, and a bit hidden away too. Liked it a lot.
This tiny place is definitely "Klein aber fein". Delivers 100%. Absolutely cozy, great selection of beer (there's wine and cider too) showcasing local breweries. Snack selections looks amazing, playlist is to die for and the attitude and knowledge of staff is impressive. A little gem for sure.

Cozy. A very friendly staff. They have interesting but limited selections of beer and very small snacks. It's a dog friendly place as well.
Very nice bar, dogs allowed. Low alcohol beer and non-alcoholic beverages, all hand=crafted. Perfect place for environmental aware friends to meet and play some games. Great hospitality from the bartender!
Great craft beer, awesome laid-back atmosphere, and dog-friendly to boot. Plus, you can take beer to go!! What’s not to love? 🙌

Really wonderful experience. Can’t wait to come back and will recommend! 10/10 service and atmosphere 10/10 quality of ingredients (full of flavor!) 10/10 creativity in dishes 10/10 wine pairing. I had a regular 5 course menu with four wine pairing for about 100€. Great music playlist too and funky decor. Loved it!
Have to say, we had some really stunning, well balanced dishes and good wines at Pubologi. The current menu we had was Kung Bore. One favorite dish was the roasted breast and heart of duck with airy Sauce Foyot, baked beetroot, Trevisano lettuce and mustard seeds. Another truly great dish was the Hay baked jerusalem artichoke with tart eggs, aged ham heart of Linderöds pig, soy of peas, browned butter and chive juice! SO TASTY, like a dates and bacon kind of flavor experience but much, much better. We went all all in or nothing having the wine pairing, you should do the same!
Very good food. Had a set “Continents” dinner menu priced at 395 SEK which is a great value for such dishes in Stockholm.
Nice place to catch up with an old friend. The food meny was great, the vine meny a bit over rated.
Really great creative, well executed mod Scandinavian food and a thinking person's drinks list designed to match the food. Wow. Service was knowledgeable and efficient. There wasn't a single disappointing dish, but the duck was an absolute standout. We'd definitely visit again.
Relaxed yet knowledgeable service. Clean design as you would expect in any self respecting Scandinavian establishment. Ultimately it was the food we were interested in and we were not disappointed. Strong bold unashamed flavours. Fabulous mix of local fresh produce. We had been to Ekstedt the night before, it being the far more famous Michelin starred eaterie. I can honestly say the food at Pubologi was slightly better. One last thing. I strongly recommend going for all the starters. Not through gluttony mind. Just an opportunity to sample, in bite sized morsels, what this place is all about. Fabulous.
Loved the experience here. The place is tiny but really nice and original. The tables have drawers which I thought it was pretty neat. You definitely need a reservation if you want to eat there. There were Spanish tapas when I went but they changed their menu since.

Ölbaronerna offers open beer tastings in Stockholm suitable for both beginners and experienced beer enthusiasts. Hosted by the knowledgeable beer master Anders Bergstrom, these tastings take place in a charming beer cellar located in the Old Town quarters. Participants can explore various types of beers, including IPAs, while learning about their flavors and characteristics. The cozy atmosphere with limited seating creates an intimate experience for all attendees.
Experienced owner, good knowledge, with a big range of beers. Got to test 7 different kinds of beer within IPA. The place itself is cozy, with a nice vibe. It's 6 tables only so it feels like a private experince. Really satisfied and will visit again.

Beautiful place tastefully decorated with an array of beer bottles. A crazy selection of beers both on tap and in bottles. The sausages were excellent and presented nicely. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive, but not intrusive.

Fun atmosphere and didn't feel overly crowded. We were there on a Friday evening.
Had the snack basket & was satisfactory for a pub. No complaints from others that had ordered different menu choices.
Will be going back.
Monk's beer is not good (we taste dark and bavaria), others are expensive then in other beer bars, bad service, no atmosphere, bad music :-) I cant recommended
I had the triple Belgium which was fantastic and my partner had the orange ale which she loved. It's very busy for a reason.
Out of the way location is worth the extra effort to get here, they have a vast selection of uncommon local and foreign beers, and the food menu is more than just the usual bar food.
Bright and fresh for a beer place, but with some of the best beers in town. Their on site brewed beers are always top notch.
A great selection of beers from all over the world, including a few made on the premises. Helpful staff and good food.
Excellent beers and food is good.

The establishment is owned by distributor Brill, who has refurbished the space. Known for its cozy ambiance, it offers a transition from after-work drinks to a luxurious dinner experience with a legendary chef on board.
A cool hidden bar off one of the main streets in the middle of Stockholm.
We stumbled across this place for a wee drink before eating dinner and thought that the atmosphere was just right for us; intimate, casual, yet quirky.
The beer selection was fab, including at least 8 craft beers on tap. The service was friendly with some thrown in humour.
Definitely coming back again and it looked like they had a DJ set for potential beats in the evening!

This bar despite being hidden on a side street stands out as my favourite in Östermalm. The cool quirky vibe is complemented by great food, and a quality range of beers curated by knowledgeable and friendly staff. Can’t recommend enough!
Great selection of beers and food. Define place for a beer lover
Very nice bar nd great selection of tapped beer. Different menu fun nd tasty. Did not know thst goatcheese icecream could taste so good. Brilliant place with great staff.
Nice concept, but don't go here if you expect to talk to you friends, extremely loud...
food was unbelievable actually, amazing fried chicken and potatoes (patatas bravas maybe? I didn't do the order)
Really nice food and drinks and very sweet service!
👋😃 Welcome to Stockholms best bar! They beat "Crum Heaven" for the 1st place since they have a legendary chef.
This is a cozy smaller place where your after-work transitions into a luxurious dinner 🍽🍒🧀🫛🥩
Right now they rival "Tehran Grill" in the saffran culinary experience -league. (⚠️ Menu may change quickly)
Expect to pay accordingly with the regional high prices 🎀
Rosa Bar makes up for it by delivering an S-tier experience & beer 🍻

The menu features hearty pub grub with updated twists, such as fish and chips, whole lobster, burgers, and a pork belly BLT sandwich.
Excellent food and service! I don't understand how they can close down such a good place - it was probably the best pork schnitzel I had in Stockholm. Chicken wings with blue cheese sauce were also delicious. Nice range of local craft beers and goods wines👌 upstairs there is a nice cocktail bar for happy ending:) I strongly recommend this place
Jacek O — Google review
Worthy of a Michelin level dining experience without the exhorbant pricing. Definitely give the tasting menu a whirl of you can. Very attentive service, unlike many other restaurants in Sweden. A bit loud, and at times difficult to carry on a conversation
Constantly busy, so make sure you book in advance. If all else fails, go to the back room and see if they have room.
Corner Club is upstairs and a great after dinner, drink spot.
Without no reservation you might be lucky to get seated at least in the bar area where the same food is being served like in the restaurant area. However, it’s a bit more noisy and conversations are a challenge. Nevertheless, the food was delicious and tasty, service was friendly and helpful, wine has its price - what applies to Sweden in general.
Very cozy restaurant. I tried the freshly salted cucumbers with smetana and honey and for main course the pork schnitzel with wild mushrooms and potato salad. Everything was excellent, the gastropub has also a vast selection of beers. The blue haired waitress was really friendly and helpful. Will come to visit again next time when I am in Stockholm.
We didn’t have reservations but were able to get a table in the back (beer?) room. So many things on the menu sounded good we had trouble deciding.
We started with the crispy pork rinds and gougeres. Both were good but not great. The pork rinds oddly lacked flavor. But the black pepper mayo was quite good. The gougeres had good flavor but somehow weren’t hot. The jalapeños added some nice spice.
I went with the seared scallop. Wow was it amazing. So much flavor in one little dish. So rich and salty and creamy all at once. The pic doesn’t do it justice.
Husband said the wings were really good. The umami sandwich (appetizer) was huge. Butter fried bread is genius. And oh so tasty. The service was pretty good (he forgot one item but it was for the best as we didn’t need it).
Casual place with some very tasty gastropub food.
Amazing food with great attentive service in Gamla Stan. We had the degustation menu and it was awesome. Absolutely delicious. Also loved the Geranium and Grapefruit Gin and Tonic.
Really excellent food with good wine pairings. Staff got balance between attentiveness and leave you alone just right. Didn’t have it but the tasting menu looked incredible. I had the turbot with lobster and caviar which was excellent.
Went for a Sunday lunch. I ordered a stroganoff and dessert from weekend lunch set for around 300 SEK, which was quite reasonable considering the high quality. Highly recommended!

I just want to give a special shout out to Joel at the reception desk. After a long day of travel, he was so helpful and kind towards us. He is the first person we met in Sweden and if all of the people here are like him, then we need to move here! Overall, really neat hotel with lots of fun design quirks. Comfortable rooms and excellent breakfast. Super helpful staff (especially Joel!). We would love to return.

I stayed at Hotel Rival for 2 nights and everything was simply exceptional. My room was cozy, well-equipped with all amenities, and the comfortable bed with air-conditioning felt like heaven. The spacious bathroom with separate zones for the toilet and warm shower was definitely a plus. The view from my window was stunning and truly a highlight of the stay.
Breakfast was outstanding, offering everything from a cheese board to bubbles for a morning aperitif. I also appreciated the 24/7 coffee and tea station on the 4th floor. The location is excellent, with both a metro station and bus stop just steps away.
This is an outstanding stay in every way.
Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful time at the Hotel Rival. Our room was clean and spacious and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed delicious breakfasts and ate at the Taverna which was excellent. Most importantly the staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel special. They offered so many suggestions on things to see and do which meant we had so many highlights of our stay. If we ever return to Stockholm Hotel Rival will be our choice of accommodation. Thank you so much.
Although checkin was a bit slow it was worth the wait. The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms with their heated floors are a treat. My room has a beautiful wood wall and suits me just fine. Don’t take the elevator - enjoy each step up the spiral staircase with its lovely stone steps.
We loved our stay at the Hotel Rival. Location is central with quick access to some local tourist spots as well as the ferry and train system. Staff were kind and helpful and the rooms were clean and spacious. The bed was super comfy, too. Love the nostalgic retro decor, also. And the breakfast buffet was phenomenal, I really appreciated the gluten free options.
A room overlooking a lovely park with a fountain and walking paths provided a lovely backdrop for our stay in Stockholm. The hotel had efficient elevators, and easy access to our room. The fourth floor had a coffee station included, with fruit and shortbread cookies placed there. Breakfast was both table service and delicious buffet included! Not basic: actual chef available for a freshly cooked dish. Evenings two restaurants, we dined downstairs at the less formal one with tables outside. Numerous good restaurants nearby, highly recommend Spago, ten minute stroll..
I stayed here because I’m a big ABBA fan and the hotel is owned by Benny. From the moment I arrived the staff were welcoming, incredibly interested in my story and not in a hurry. Then when I left I had a beautiful discussion with the reception staff about how special it was to go to the ABBA museum & we had tears. Nothing was ever a problem, breakfast the best I’ve had in any hotel, the room quiet and beautiful with the Church bells chiming. I would come back to Stockholm just for the experience of the hotel.
Genuinely one of the best customer service I’ve had at a hotel. All that staff were amazing, starting from the front desk till the restaurant staff at breakfast. The rooms were great, overlooking the gorgeous park. My go to hotel whenever I’ll be back at Stockholm.

Specialty Museums
The Museum of Spirits, located in 18th-century naval buildings on Djurgarden island in Stockholm, offers a unique exploration of Sweden's complex relationship with alcohol. Through art, scenery, scents, and tastes, visitors are taken on a journey from pain to pleasure. The museum showcases the history of Swedish vodka and features quirky Swedish drinking songs. After the tour, guests can unwind at the on-site bar with a craft beer.
We were so surprised and had such a good time. For one euro, you can learn about prohibition in Europe, smell different alcohols carry your drink around, have a visual experience. Great way to kill a half hour to 45 minutes. Had a couple of drinks at the bar afterwards We had a great time. The bartenders were very nice overall very nice experience.

Its decent. There is a temporary Andy Wohorl Art exhibition at the start, not what I expected but it was good.
You then come the an exhibit around booze smugglers back in the early 1900s, was a good read
Then exhibition around drink
I would have thought there would be more around the history of Vodka etc as the name Place museum of spirits suggests.
Lovely lunch service by Elsa. We enjoyed stopping here after the Abba Museum and before the Viking Museum for lunch. We struggled to find a nice restaurant and walked and walked and soooooo glad we decided on the Spirit Museum Restaurant ! Make sure you try a swedish digestive drink too with desserts. We had lovely music too , not to loud but provided a lovely ambience.
It was really fun to check it out. Spritmuseum is dedicated to Swedish drinking culture and is the permanent home to the internationally renowned Absolut Art Collection. You can easily spend about two hours there, discovering the teoubled past of the drinkin game, tbe bootleging and its history in Stockholm and Sweden. Plus, there are not so many museums in the world where you can get a drink in rogh there :)
I love it. my favorite thing about this museum is where there would be 100 tiny bottles (i think), each of them, you hade to smell all of them, I smelled ALL OF THEM, other than that, the museum was pretty nice👍
Waste of time. Not recommended. I thought this would be a exploration into Swedish drinking culture, but it turned out to be nothing more than a tasting gallery with some historical pictures on the wall. The "smells" portion didn't work and there wasn't else to the place. Unless you purchase the tasting option, don't waste time. Don't even stop if walking by on the way to other museums in the area.
Exceptional customer service, great food and relaxing atmosphere. The waiter went above and beyond to explain the menu in detail as well as paying close attention to our dietary requirements. In addition, he provided anecdotes about local delicacies and the type of food Swedish people were accustomed to. I would definitely recommend paying a visit here if you’re around Djurgården.
Such a unique museum! I didn’t know what to expect, but so pleasantly surprised. The smelling portion was super fun. But the best part was the crime history of spirits in Sweden… didn’t realize how long their prohibition was!! So fun and interesting. Worth the stop! Could have skipped the Andy Warhol part…. But we see a lot of him in the US. Still, worth the price of entry to learn about the spirits history!

Really nice bar. Is really nicely styled and feels like a proper English pub. Food is very tasty. Great table service and excellent beers on offer. Recommend the Beef and Ale Pie. Revisited and food and drink was excellent and very filling. No longer serve pie but burger was excellent. Really nice pub setting, feels like you are in a bar in London.
Nice bar. Staff was friendly and fast and food good. It would be nice to know what food is vegetarian/ vegan.
This was the perfect pub for 4 weary travelers to rest their bones. We appreciated the extensive, well-priced menu and the welcoming atmosphere. A fun spot for a nightcap in Stockholm: I wish we could transplant it back home.
Nice bar! We only tried beers (nice selection!), so can’t say much about food. The atmosphere is great but the only (minor) problem, I think, is music. It would be nice if it was less modern. Perhaps 60-80s British rock or post punk.. or something jazzy… the bar looks like it :)
Tried coming here a couple times, but it was always busy. Finally got a spot at the bar with my friend, but after one drink we left since it was pretty loud and we never got seated at a booth.
I would probably go back, but it's not at the top of my list, so only four stars!
The queen’s head is top notch, I came once and I will definitely come again.
Its a bit pricey but worth it

Perfect location. Nice check in. Very large premium room. Lots of space. View towards the atrium - but that ensures you are not disturbed by street noise. Breakfast buffet is good - the breakfast room though a bit crowded.
Returned for 2 more nights and this time I got an upgrade to a room with lake view and huge bathroom. Good sleep. Comfortable bed and a very clean and quiet room. An incident with water dripping from the ceiling was quickly fixed.

It's a great hotel in an excellent location. It's right next to the central station which has train service direct to/from the airport. It's of walking distance to old town. It's also close to a lot of restaurants and malls.
Rooms were spacious and around a 9 out of 10 in cleanliness. Bathrooms were pretty clean however. Shower had nice water pressure. The trash bin that was provided was very unstable though as it was hard to open without it potentially tumbling down. Soundproofing was also excellent.
Staff were nice and professional. Check-in/Check-out/Member upgrades were quick and efficient.
Unfortunately I did not take pictures of the hotel, however it cost us £713.61 for 6 nights.
Room was marvellous, clean, large, had a TV, lovely view of the Stockholm city centre.
Staff were so friendly, and happy to give recommendations around Sweden.
I did not try the restaurant on site as if I remember it was mostly sea food.
I did not pay for breakfast so can’t comment.
Would definitely stay again if I ever find myself back in Stockholm.
My room was the “cosy small room”.
We stayed at the Radisson Blu Royal Viking Hotel in Stockholm on our first night, and it was the perfect start to our trip. The location couldn’t have been more convenient — right by the central station and within easy walking distance of Old Town, museums, and the waterfront. The hotel itself was beautiful and welcoming, with thoughtful touches throughout. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant and tried the Swedish meatballs paired with excellent wine — absolutely delicious. Between the great food, warm service, and ease of access to everything, our stay was fantastic. Highly recommend!
We were so elated that the hotel was so close to everything!! The staff was friendly and very helpful!
I highly recommend adding the breakfast! If you add it to every morning there’s a discount. The coffee there put it over the top! Delicious!
We loved our room! It had so much space and the tub was so relaxing! We had a wonderful stay here!
One of the best breakfasts we had in Europe — truly exceptional. The dining staff were amazing and incredibly attentive, and the reception team was warm and very friendly. The rooms were comfortable, although we were a bit bothered that there was no divider between the two connected rooms we booked. Aside from that, the hotel, its location, and the kindness of the staff deserve top marks. Highly recommended — breakfast, wow!
Excellent location on the vicinity of Arlanda Express train platform, which makes it really easy to arrive from Arlanda airport.
Friendly staff as it is to be expected. Age shows a little especially on the breakfast restaurant, rooms still well maintained and didn't give any worn feel. Well noise insulated rooms since I didn't hear anything besides some loud car horns from the street to the room.
Breakfast service area little confusing and on the first morning we were offered coffee to the table but on the following mornings. Not a problem though since they have prefilled coffee pitchers available for pickup to the tables.
They have a spa section on premises, unfortunately I didn't got to use them on this visit, hopefully next time.
I had a great time here. It's located centrally next to the train station, yet is wasn't noisy. I had a room on the fifth floor and I couldn't hear anything from outside, even though my room was overlooking the entrance to the station and the bus stands.
The rooms were cozy, and more than enough for my 3 night stay. It was easy to reach every place in Stockholm from there. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby.

Also a nice smaller selection of delicious snacks and dishes. We are loving the informal atmosphere, the sweet and attentive staff and of course their excellent wines. This one in particular, a Japanese nature wine, was exquisite.

Lovely spot with an extensive list of wines. Servers were extremely pleasant and knowledgeable in guiding you along. Definitely a must visit when in Stockholm.
Nice wine bar and restaurant in Östermalm!
Only had wine there, as I had dinner before…
But their menu looked very nice, and the prices are quite affordable!
The wine was excellent, with a bunch of different choices. A glass of wine goes for the 150 SEK range, and a bottle around the 800 SEK range for the cheapest ones.
I had three glasses of different wine, and they were all quite unique! If you want to be a bit more experimental and try some wines that might not be available at Systembolaget, this is a great place.
The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is also quite nice. However, it was quite warm inside…
All in all great experience!
Walked in for a glass of wine and really loved the selection, plus staffs were friendly, and the overall vibe was great for a casual night out. Great small bites too!
We had the anchovies and ravioli with white wines recommended by friendly and helpful staff. Nice cozy ambience at a peaceful part of Stockholm city.
One of my favorite places in Stockholm! Great selection of wine in very good prices too. The last time we were there, we had an Aperitivo with amazing little plates to nibble on. Try the cheese of the day, they always have a great one. Also if you’re looking for natural wines it’s definitely the place to be. Definitely worth the visit.!!
AWESOME wine bar with great little bites. This place has the best wine selection and is perfect for a date night or an after work! Great energy and vibe and the staff is super knowledgeable!

Great atmosphere, impressive natural wine list with real gems from all over the world, tasty small-sized dishes and snacks cooked with love in a tiny kitchen.
Service is fast with friendly smiles.
The selection of natural wines is maybe the best in Stockholm.
I particularly liked the vibe of this place. It's casual, good for a drink and light bite as well as for geeky natural wine exploration.
This place gets really busy, luckily they also have seats outside.
