Meh. * * * * "Charming" room with tons of antique overstuffed chairs and old wood tables. Except that only a few of the tables are at a height convenient for eating or coffee And a lot of the chairs being so worn down that there is no stuffing in them. Your butt falls into the hard circular pit of the frame. The drip coffee was terrible. Lingonberry pancakes were barely warm if that. I have now come to the opinion that lingonberries add virtually nothing to a dish, but you can't blame the cafe for that one. People want lingonberries, so the cafe serves them. Still bad coffee, lukewarm food, and uncomfortable furniture does not make for a good experience. However, the room is quaint and scenic. If you don't mind doing a little bit of suffering, You can take selfies of yourself and your friends there So you have pictures to treasure years from now. read more

Cafe String represents well the very hipster culture and feeling of Södermalm. The decoration is vintage with old jukeboxes and different sized tables and chairs. It gets crowded inside especially on weekends at breakfast/brunch time, so showing up early is a good idea if you want to avoid waiting for a sitting place. It's loud, vibrant and you stumble upon all kinds of people. Definitely an ideal place to go with friends. The brunch buffet itself is simple and has the basic breakfast foods: bread, toast, cheese, ham, veggies, cereal, yogurt and of course, the pancakes! Everything is refilled often so nothing is ever missing. It is extremely good value brunch, also because you can fill up your plate or coffee mug as many times as you like (read: as many times as your stomach fits). The pancake overdose is a classic. read more

This place is great for lunch! 70kr and you get a big chicken salad with bread and a coffee or tea. The bread was really good and the salad was all whole foods - avocado slice, orange slice, rice, lettuce, tomato, chicken... Maybe something else. My friend thought it should have more flavor, like more spices and herbs but then it wouldn't be 70kr and it is just a plain healthy meal. I was very satisfied and the interior is fun. Lots of tables everywhere to sit and chat and the tables up lining the Window are especially fun. The staff was very nice. Not only would I come back but I WANT to come back! It's the best lunch I've had in Stockholm. Maybe not for the taste but the combination of amount, price, healthiness, and comfort. I definitely recommend you come here read more

Walking through the streets of Stockholm we passed this little coffee shop, mainly to seek shelter from the snow but also because of its eclectic interior. The coffee shop is situated right in the newly gentrified area of town, so other cool restaurant and shops can be found within walking distance. The coffee shop itself had small sandwiches as well as a full coffee bar. I had the chai latte and it was very good. The place is a nice area to just relax on one of their couches and take in the changing weather and the subtle noises of the city around. read more

Café String - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

Lovely place for lunch in the trendy Södermalm neighborhood. We dropped by because there were so many cafes closed during Easter Monday and this place remained opened. The cafe has a bit of a hipster atmosphere but remains kid-friendly which really I think can be said for all of Stockholm (the kid-friendly part). The menu consists of both vegetarian and vegan items and every lunch dish accompanied a side salad. During the peak hours the queue to order can get lengthy and there's a lot of shuffling tables and moving of chairs to accommodate the young (very hip) families that drop by to eat. Sit at the elevated table/seats alongside the window for great people watching. For that I'll say Stockholm is one city that surely don't disappoint! read more

Absolutely amazing! For 80kr you get an all you can eat breakfast buffet with coffee and free refills. You won't find this anywhere else in Sweden. The food included sliced deli meats, cottage cheese, assorted rolls and bread, hard boiled eggs, fruit, cheese, and the delicious build a Swedish pancake with berries and ice cream. The buffet is about a table long but its packed with an assortment. If you're looking for a Vegas type buffet this is not even close but your taste buds will love you for deciding to go here. The seating is very tight and the restaurant fills up and empties at the same time so good luck getting a seat in the middle of the buffet. They also made a delicious Mocha Latte. read more

Café String - Breakfast buffet plate #1 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

Everyone seems to love Cafe String. And I wish, oh how I wish, that I did too. But to be honest, my only good experience here was a latte. The breakfast buffet is a good deal, as other reviewers have noted. But if you're a fan of warm breakfast, as I am, then there's basically nothing. It's just the same bread and cereal and condiments you could easily have at home. Every single time I've been here it has been absolutely packed - which may be a good sign, it's very popular - but it causes problems. I have never been able to sit upstairs at all; it's always full, and extremely loud. Downstairs is much quieter and usually has seats, but who really wants to balance a cup of burning hot coffee and a breakfast plate down those narrow stairs? The staff always seem rather stressed and tend to just let you do your own thing - they make your coffee and take your money but there's not really room for customer service here. I really like the way it looks upstairs, with the mismatched sofas and chairs, and I love the window seating. But despite all that, I just haven't managed to have a pleasant experience here. It is one of Södermalm's most famous and popular cafes, and their pastries are good, so by all means stop by for a coffee and a bun - but good luck finding a place to sit or carrying on a conversation. read more

Cozy place, mostly teenagers hanging out with friends. Prices were very affordable, service was a bit slow but becoming the cozy atmosphere. Wifi which actually worked and was free. Great stop before boarding the Viking Line ferry. read more

Café String - Warm salami goat cheese sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

I stumbled across this place and it made my little heart fill with joy. I could have spent the whole day chillaxing in there. It's a cafe on a corner, filled with retro furniture and old arcade games. The coffee comes in a thermos and the food was good value. The tables in the window were raised up and looked like the best spot for a bit of people watching. An afghan hound came in, so I think they're dog-friendly, but my Swedish wasn't up to asking. It's in Sodermalm, which is the coolest part of Stockholm in my opinion. It's where I would live if I ever moved there. read more

Café String - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

After a day of walking around Södermalm, a friend and I headed to this cafe after getting the recommendation from a co worker. We were pleased to find the vibe very laid back and fun. Better yet, they had a vegan latte and vegan lies! I chose the apple. It was a little colder than I like, but tasted great. read more

Café String - Vegan latte and vegan apple pie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

The atmosphere is great, but I am on a self-directed eating tour of Swedish biskvi, and strongly recommend avoiding them here. The almond cookie bottom and chocolate coating were good, but the filling--which should be a buttercream--was chocolate frosting. This is interesting at first, as you wonder 'what is this flavor that I know?', followed by crushing disappointment as you realize that this is what you get on grocery store cupcakes. Stick to the coffee and people watching. read more

This place is one of the most hyped for brunch in Södemalm. It will offer you a basic assortment of brunch items but at a decent quality and a very good price. Make sure to come early, otherwise you will be stuck in a queue and get a seat at the table right in the flow of hungry hipsters. read more

Great cafe in a trendy part of town. It is a big space with lots of couches and great big windows, so great on a summers day. You can get a filter coffee and slice of cake for 40SEK, which is a pretty good deal. read more

Everything it's cracked up to be. Just run-down enough to be cool, and certainly very charming. Breakfast buffet is great, but I get burnt coffee without fail. Is the coffee always burnt? It's almost okay if it is. read more

Super crowded on weekends, and the tables are so close together that getting to some places is akin to performing in a Cirque Du Soleil show. Trendy, hipsterish place that's better on weekdays than weekends. read more

Very average cafe and sandwich place. Food was very basic, and nothing to justify the price paid. Coffee comes with free refills though. Also, the ambience was not the best, with a clatter of American pop culture references all over. read more

Café String - nice set up! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Stockholm, Alberta

five stars for their really priceworthy week-end brunch buffé. Allways a lot of people and a relaxed atmosphere. It is very typical"Söder" (the area) with its miss-matching furniture and young hipster crowd. I truly recommend it though! read more

Eclectic cafe, great for a latte and dessert. They have a special - 50SEK for a coffee/dessert. It's not fancy or trendy but a cozy place to sit and have a coffee. read more

i love this cafe. the atmosphere and decor on the ground floor is great, though i must say i prefer the more grungy basement area. extremely cozy, good service, decent soy latte. the only reason it doesn't get the last star is because their smoothies are terrible.. i had a strawberry flavour served to me warm. well, it is not a smoothie bar after all. read more

we came here for the weekend brunch buffet and it was exactly what i was looking for - a good selection of fresh food, nice variety and good quality. pretty standard breakfast fare - fralla with meats, cheeses and veggies, yogurt and muesli, pancakes with several varieties of fruit toppings (and ice cream!), boiled eggs and of course tea, coffee and lingon juice. a few nice surprises were hummus and cottage cheese - the hummus is a nice option for vegans and i just love cottage cheese so that made me happy. the breakfast buffet is 80 kronor but i would definitely say it was worth it since i had two or three heaping plates and it was all super tasty! read more

We were ignored by the employers and paid for overrated waffles. I think this place is just highly rated by their friends and people who live here or share their politics. Avoid if you want quality and a nice atmosphere. Totally not worth it. read more
