    I come here regularly. The reasons I keep coming back are two. First, out (drum roll): the people!…read moreAs the opposite of the posh feeling on Avenyn, here you will find the sophisticated cultural elite. Think, hipster, but not the American kind with dirty hair and weird clothing. I'm talking about the swedish kind with 300 credits Film History and horn rimmed glasses. Unless horn rimmed glasses aren't the thing that week. "Well, that sounds kind of dull, dude" you might think. No, because they are drunk and friendly! Second, the music. It matches the coolness of the rugged walls. You might hear an old Steve Forbert song or two (there is even a poster of him on the wall!) from the LP slinging DJ, or some weird bootleg from Daft Punk. Ask the DJ to play a song, and if your request goes through, you know you are one of the cool cats.

    LOL looks like the Swedes once again dont want to hurt anyone's feelings, judging by the endless 5…read morestar reviews on all Gothenburg establishments. Well too bad for you, I ain't Swedish. This place sucks. Full of try-hard hipsters and unfriendly bar staff. The place is small and poorly ventilated, by 1 AM the hipster stink is unbearable. The majority of the clientele are fake and snobbish. The food is as bad as you would expect from hipster try-hards, I doubt they prepare anything fresh. The place is dingy and not in an ironic way. Unless you are an obnoxious hipster, definitely avoid.

    Really cool coffee shop. As hipster as it gets. This coffee shop also sells books (think Hard Rock…read moreCafé style), CD's, mugs, some board/card games, and T-shirts. Menu items include different types of coffee drinks, hot chocolate, juice, and some types of sandwiches. Everything is relatively cheap compared to many coffee shops in other parts of town. (Unfortunately they don't have syrups to flavor the coffee). The decor is very hipstery to say the least. Coffee tables covered in books. paintings and photos of music artists line the walls. Guitars and tshirts hang in the windows. One corner of the store has a small VHS TV (which seems to play movies without sound constantly) and a bookcase filled with VHS tapes. Flags from different countries hang from the ceiling. Not crowded (most of the time), though it seems they have live music here some nights of the week.

    Wow! W - O - W! This place has a smooth jazzy feeling to it…read more Have a seat in the couch in front of the TV or at the kitchen table. Have a seat in a sacco or just a plain chair. Good old stereo - no mp3. VHS movies. If you are looking for something else, and not needy for cakes to your coffee this is definitely the place for you! I honestly do not listen to jazz music but at this place it was so right. I almost fell asleep! It is a combined book and coffee shop, Uncommon books. Coffee table books. English books and Swedish books. They occasionally have live jazz music. They opened like 2 weeks ago and are still under construction the owner told me. Please please start going here - so we can keep it around! It definitely deserves it. It fits perfect on your strolling round to have a break at Soul store!

    Nice and City Little Café with delicious pastry and coffee. Fair prices. Would def come back!read more

    I am going to give a 5 star because it is consistently pleasant here and...when I forgot my cap in…read moreminus weather this winter, I came back and there is a rack at the door where kind patrons hang up stuff other people like me forget. There was an umbrella, a pair of gloves, a scarf and my cap I bought last year in Osaka during sakura season. This little cafe is in the Haga neighborhood, which is written about in every tourist brochure and online review, and a favorite of locals like myself to walk through the cobblestone streets and browse through the antique stores, specialty shops, and cafes. The name is also true to Gothenberg's famous sense of humor and play on words in the Gothenberg dialect. Like (P)arken. Don't worry, if you don't speak Swedish or Göteborgska you will still enjoy this place as a tourist or a local. The breakfast is what brings me in all seasons--when it is chilly to warm I sit outside to watch the people pass by. The street is officially closed to traffic, but there are still trucks and cars that pass through, although not as busy as the Avenyn district. For 70kr you get either the oatmeal or yogurt breakfast, I prefer the yogurt which gives you a hearty bowl of yogurt, homemade muesli, and your choice of raspberry jam or applesauce, a cheese sandwich, and a glass of apple or orange juice and cup of coffee or tea. Tea is refillable for free and coffee is just about 1 dollar. The cheese sandwich is on either a whole wheat or white bread that is always fluffy, moist and filled with nuts and poppyseed on the top. I often wrap it up to take with me when I leave for a little snack later as I go about my day. It holds its texture all day,not drying up to a crouton as many breads will. The decor is a little dark and with muted greens and greys and they have a shelf on the far end with local artists work that rotate and the wall on the left or entrance side is one long bulletin board that they are very open and happy to let whoever wants to post their flyers. Artists shows, yoga teachers classes and retreats, book releases, dog walking services, it is all there in a friendly chaos. They also offer the standard fare of salad, sandwiches and Swedish fika sweets so it is a nice place to take a break if you are a tourist or visitor to experience the Swedish fika. During the winter, it is very warm...so you feel at home and can really take off all your coats, scarves, sweaters, etc. and relax there. The women who work there are always friendly and the food, as I said, is always consistent and tasty. It is a place to take a book to read, meet and linger with a friend to catch up, work on your novel. Friendly staff, and consistently friendly is for some reason a rare thing for me to find in Gothenberg, so this bumps it up to a 5 in my yelp book. Ö+=
