I stumbled upon this cute little place while sightseeing and it did not disappoint. Smashed avocados with extra zing thanks to a blend of spices and herbs and hollandaise sauce served on sourdough bread. The interior gives farmhouse vibes garnished with vintage countryside wallpaper. The service was great.
Looking for American Style brunch in Stockholm then this is the place to go. Came here on a Sunday at about noon. There was a wait - which is ok considering how cozy and popular the place is. We waited for about 30 mins before getting seated and the wait was worth it. Ordered the eggs Arlington with mimosas. The Salmon eggs were poached perfectly and the entirely meal was just delectable. Our waiter - young and friendly American was very helpful, attentive, and buzzing with good energy. Definitely recommend!
Hi, I don't enjoy leaving bad reviews, but the meal I had at GS was disappointing. Paying for food that doesn't taste good and is quite expensive feels upsetting. I ordered 'chicken wings' - the meat looked very pale, almost raw, with no taste whatsoever. It wasn't warm either. 'Pickles' consisted of four pieces of zucchini... And the bread wasn't even artisan. It was plain white bread. Overall it did not look inviting. The dish was pretty much tasteless. The waiter was friendly.
The wait will be worth it! I came with my friend on a Saturday morning and after 45 minutes we had a table! They were actually very accurate with their estimated times. They told us to come back by 11 and at 11 we were directed to a table. The decor of the place is very cutesy yet homey and cozy. All the waiters were wearing overalls and the tables were marble. It is def a perfect location for instagram. I wanted to order EVERYTHING off the menu. Even the specials sounded so delicious. I ended up getting the pink rosti thing and it was really good and pretty! The pancakes also looked super dope, I was just craving something savory. Come here!! !
First stop in Stockholm!! A super cozy little place. We got the corn fritters and eggs benedict with salmon. They were both really good!! Really filling. Also got a matcha and turmeric latte. BESTTT turmeric latte I've ever had!! Seriously so yummy. Customer service is amazing. The staff is so friendly and welcoming :) Would definitely go back!!
Lovely cozy brunch restaurant that made me miss America! We got the blueberry pancakes, avocado toast, and eggs Benedict. Everything was done really well and p. The place was packed with locals and hipster visitors (likely came by way of yelp) The service was nice but a bit scattered at times, so go prepared to enjoy the food and conversations and let the time pass by! Not a dish but my favorite thing about this place is their house hot sauce, which you can buy! We bought a bunch to bring back home. We came on a Monday around 1115 and there was an hour wait. I recommend popping in to put your name down and explore the surrounding neighborhood - there are shops and coffee places around to kill time.
The mister and I stumbled across Greasy Spoon while walking to Fotografiska. We were drawn to the large crowd and then completely sucked in when we saw the neon fried egg sign. We didn't even know the name of the place so we couldn't do our normal Internet inspection before deciding to eat there, but the excitement of the diners and look of the food was good enough to convince us! It seems that shared tables are the norm here. And we sat at a table shared with one of the owner's friends and his two kids. The owners are former school teachers and have been having a blast feeding people since June of this year. Now to the food: Avocado toast: a huge portion of avocados with a bit of citrus and a sprinkle of chili peppers. This was amazing! I make avo toast at home, but this was nothing like what I usually do and it makes me want to up my toast game. Eggs Benedict: Several people in the restaurant told us this was their favorite dish. I don't typically like eggs Benedict because hollandaise is too rich for me, so I'm a poor judge. This one was no exception and I didn't eat much of it. Although, I could tell the ingredients were excellent and lovingly prepared. But I'm sure if you like hollandaise this dish will suit you well. Pancakes: So delicious! The interior was fluffy with a nice browned and crisp exterior. Even my very-picky-about-pancakes boyfriend who perfected his own pancakes by testing recipes for weeks liked them. The staff was really friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the lively atmosphere of the restaurant. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Greasy Spoon for a great meal and happy atmosphere.
Went here on a Friday morning around 10.30am as was craving a decent cooked breakfast, which can be hard to find in Scandinavia. Had read positive reviews of the place and was not disappointed. It's a quaint little spot in the Södermalm, known as the more hipster area of Stockholm. I had the Huevos Rancheros, which had just the right amount of spice in it, and my partner had the Grilled Haloumi stack with a side of black pudding. All i can say is yum! I will be back if we have time when in Stockholm. Fast and friendly service. I will recommend to get in early, we left at about 1130 and by that time, there was a line of people waiting to get in!
Had high hopes for this place being that I'm an American living in Sweden and sometimes just want a taste of back home. It was a bit of a let down. I ordered the maple pancakes which were very tough, dry and a bit burnt unfortunately. Not at all how pancakes are supposed to taste. My boyfriend on the other hand, had no problem with his meal which was super tasty. The service itself was stellar despite my food being subpar.
If u want a truly English breakfast this is the place to go to. It's crowded so you need to wait for a while before you will catch a table. The food is good and the waitresses only speaks English which gives you the truly English feeling.
When Stockholm said "Gay pride!" I didn't think it meant this way. Being able to dance the night away at Stockwig and nurse the hangover with the least bottom-friendly meal is a true 1-2 punch! The bacon was perfectly crispy, the sausage was savory AFTER and didn't have any of the weird chewy fat pieces I hate to find. The tomato's exploded in my mouth with sweet flavor and they paired nicely with the salty beans. And last, but definitely not least, those eggs were cooked to runny-yoke perfection! I slathered everything in that toast and it was the best thing in my mouth all weekend! Ps. Order the Bloody Mary! It brought me back from the dead. Also, the line to get in can vary but the seemingly tiny space has a spacious back room so you know if it's filled up and you see a line, it's worth the wait! read more

A great place for brunch! I visit Greasy Spoon every time I'm in Stockholm, and I always enjoy the food and atmosphere. The only downside is the long waiting time, especially when it's busy. Other than that, definitely a place worth visiting! read more

Amazing brunch!!! Very nice interior. The ricotta pancakes were super fluffy and the bacon perfectly crispy. The Benedict hash was unique and so savory and delicious. Chicken bites are nothing crazy but good for a snack/appetizer. Getting the food was a little slow but otherwise service was good! read more

Out of this world breakfast joint that hit the spot perfectly. Showed up on Sunday to an hour long wait, but decided to come back on a weekday. So glad we did. We showed up on Tuesday and were seated immediately. Shared the avocado smash with poached egg and bacon on sourdough along with the banana French toast. We inhaled the entire thing leaving nothing but the remainder of their homemade hot sauce. Service was excellent, food was to die for. I'd give it six stars if I could! read more

Always my go to brunch place in Stockholm, the pancakes are heavenly and every other thing they serve is not far from that. Strongly recommended for anyone who is considering going to this place. read more
Great spot for brunch, which is served all day. Portions are large and well-prepared, plenty of vegetarian options. Many egg options are served on thick-cut toast, which is delicious. There's something for everyone - eggs, halloumi, pancakes, etc. The cafe is small so there might be a wait at peak times. We went Tues at 1pm and were able to be seated right away. They only take cards for payment. read more

We had such a delicious brunch here while visiting Stockholm. We came on a weekday morning so we had no wait time and took a seat outside with our toddler. My daughter is a picky eater but loved the avocado toast and I scored some unexpected and super delicious gluten free pancakes served with a sweetened pear--who knew?! We relaxed and enjoyed the people watching and I also just really loved the bathroom decor (it matters!) read more

I took the vegan brunch & it was de-li-cious! Very fresh ingredients, strong and interesting tastes, I even liked the vegan sausage (I usually don't). Very friendly service, taking the time to chat despite being busy, and as there was a 20m queue I was able to leave my phone number so they would text me when a table was freed. Good price given the quality and the quantity (a lot). The food arrived very quickly despite the many clients! Negative points were that our drinks took forever to arrive (we were almost done with our meal, and other people were also asking for their drinks...) & the teapot being bigger than the tea cup provided, half of the tea will always be over brewed :( read more

We found this place on Yelp looking for good pancakes in Stockholm. It was the perfect breakfast spot. The location is perfect for a day of vintage shopping and local boutiques. This was the best way to start the day. Amazing pancakes, eggs Benedict, and horchata porridge. read more

Jätte mums! That's how you say yummy right? Either way, this place is bomb. My party of 4 arrived at 9am on a Thursday and we were the first ones there. The waitress, which may also might have been the owner/manager, was really attentive and took our drink/food order very quickly. The food presentation was amazing, and the taste was definitely something you would expect from a typical "American" brunch menu. Def a place worth checking out! read more

I'll talk about the positive things first. The toilet was cosy; there was a cute little candle lit so even if you turn the light off it's still cosy! Don't judge me I just really like beautiful and fresh comfort rooms. Haha. The personnel was nice! They all seemed happy; isn't this a good thing? Not all can afford to be happy. A bitter personnel is one of the worst things I know, seriously. There are tables outside too and it's pretty cosy to sit there and eat as you watch people pass by (and people passing by, watching you eat; they can't help but check out your food). The cooking was pretty good although I was a bit disappointed by the orange juice. On the menu it says it is fresh and I was expecting something better than the one I got. It felt a bit powderish (I believe it was powdered orange juice?). The price was 39-40kr so I was really expecting a good orange juice. :( I feel the price wasn't worth it. Anyway I can still recommend Greasy Spoon to anyone who'd like to have a good breakfast/brunch! :-) read more

This place really deserves the hype! I mean what's not to like? The service is great, the fact that the staff only speak English adds to the great vibe, and last but not least - the brunch selection is ace. I'll definitely pay this place another visit! read more
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! Best fresh Orange juice I've ever had! My meal was MASSIVE, vegetarian and delicious!!!!! The music was awesome, beastie boys and other old school stuff! The wallpaper was super rad. GANGSTA REALLY! Only way this place could get better would be if it was in my town!! I truly suggest giving them a visit and following them on Instagram so you can see all the deliciousness! read more
This spot deserves a healthy 4 stars! We arrived here at 12 on a Sunday in search of a table and were told it would be a 1 and a half hour wait! Yikes! If I hadn't had wanted to visit this spot since arriving in Stockholm 4 months ago I would have defiantly walked away but the menu just won me over! They have all my favourites, pancakes, eggs benedict, French toast, full English, flat white coffee, pots of fresh tea, brunch cocktails. This is heaven! We were starving by the time we got a table so I went to town! I ordered the blueberry pancakes AND a half portion of Benedict and a flat white! An I don't regret a single thing. My food was incredible. Possibly the best pancakes I have eaten in Europe ever! Fluffy and huge! My Benedict was perfect, egg was lovely an soft, the English muffin toasted and crisp, the sauce was perfect and the bacon was incredibly tasty! My husband got the full English, with a potato hash brown and some fresh juice. He was really pleased with it. However his was defiantly the priciest dish by far. €20 for a English breakfast without an included drink is just robbery even in Stockholm. He also HATES mushroom, and when he asked to have it with no mushrooms he was told no, that they don't replace items, which is fair enough but when we said we didn't want a replacement just for them to not be on the plate she said no that it would be too much work for the chef to remember? This was a really surprising reaction and really wasteful as we literally just took them off ourselves when it arrived and would be thrown out. Very strange attitude and removed the feeling of attentive service completely. It's a small thing but ye know small things matter. Same with loyality cards, we wanted to start them but were told it was only for weekday customers. I guess weekend guests mean less to these guys which is a shame seeing as we are the ones who will be willing to wait 1.5 hours for a table. I would have defiantly given this place 5 stars but unfortunately the service was not 5 star quality. read more

Good Place for Breakfast (probably the CLOSEST thing to an American Breakfast). Went here as it was recommended by my Air BnB Host. The place is small, apparently people line up here for a table (not sure if I'd wait longer than 15 mins. for their offerings to be honest). Menu is small and limited and pricey for what you're really getting. Everything is kind of "à la carte" which can add up, once you add everything you'd like to make a COMPLETE breakfast (i.e. You want bacon +$4, You want ONE egg +$4, You want Salt 'n' Pepper +$2) I'm kidding about the charge for the seasoning, and the prices aren't exactly accurate but I'm sure you get the idea. The food itself was tasty, I won't lie about that. My boyfriend and I each ordered the Avocado Toast (w/ ONE egg each), ONE Order of Pancakes w/Crispy Bacon (to share), and 2 Drip Coffees. The bill came to about $50 USD, do the Swedish exchange yourself. This is kinda outrageous if you think about what you're really getting. I really dislike when restaurants make you share a table with other parties (due to the popularity and limited seating capacity), before you know it both parties are having a volume competition, that or one party is totally eavesdropping on your conversation. Just not what I'd like to engage in for brunch. I think I'd rather wait for my own table and not have strangers sit with my group. The avocado toast seems to be the MOST popular item on the menu as that is really all I saw the waiters coming out with from the kitchen, and I can see why... It's tasty. So if you go here order the following: Avocado Toast w/ Egg (+ Addt'l Fee), and and an order of the CRISPY bacon. Drip coffee will do, as there are free refills (surprisingly). Don't bother with the pancakes as they taste like BISQUICK and too doughy and corn-bread like. Not my fave, I prefer the KRUSTEAZ buttermilk pancake brand. Waaaaay better....Hope this helps :-) read more

This place is crazy during the weekends; you go there and book a table and come back in one hour! But the food is really nice, prices are a bit high, but it's worth it! If you order the English Breakfast you won't leave hungry that's for sure! Even the vegetarian English Breakfast is lovely! read more
