I decided to go here for lunch based on my Yelp search. We came in a little before they opened and…read moresat outside. There were two other families waiting already. Once they were open, it took a long time between us being given menus to finally getting our food- 50 minutes. They should've given us our side while we were waiting for the board. We ordered a side of salami and Swedish cheese and the hairy pig board. I enjoyed the side, but the board not so much. The board consisted of wild boar sausage with broche bun, wild boar taco, peppercorn fries, and wild boar lasagna. The board was quite heavy and salty. I didn't have enough stomach space to even try the taco. I did enjoy the fries, but it's not enough for me to want to return.

When staying next to Gamla Stan we read that this was a place not to be missed..only it was so easy…read moreto miss and we had to give a pretty good search before finally locating it. This place is tucked below street level and is very intimate and downright cozy with its low beam wood ceiling, wood tables in every cranny it can fit to accommodate guests, and a tiny little bar. You can find this place outside by the wooden sign with the boar on it, then simply peer down into the low window and if you see a hairy pig nomming on a sausage, congratulations! You're in the right place. We stopped in not long before closing time and that was probably the only reason we were able to get a much coveted table. The barkeep was nice and let us put in a quick order while also getting us drinks. Unfortunately for me, there were not very many gluten free tapa options on the menu, but there were a few naturally gf. The salami and sausages were thought to have gluten so I went with the smoked shell on shrimp, a cheese dip, and some salad with olives. I wasn't crazy about the smoked shrimp but the olives and cheese were good. The husband enjoyed a sausage in bun which he said was great. Overall we liked the vibe and I think if you can eat the locally sourced meats like my husband it's probably a pretty solid place. If you're gf or allergy you'll probably still be hungry at the end of the meal like I was.

My wife had the Portobello mushroom burger, accompanied with toasted kale and an apple/carrot slaw. One of the most delicious veggie burger I've tasted. I had the falafel in a pita. Also delicious.

Prices very resonable.

I ate an avocado salad that included a soft runny egg, peas and mushrooms covered in sesame seed which was delicious. I'd definitely recommend this place.

It's pretty much a one person show from what I could see. The owner attended to me efficiently and without the slightest hesitation. I'm sorry to say that I don't speak Swedish (I wish I did I can tell you) but he was able to communicate with me and for that I will always be grateful. My plate had, if I recall correctly, four breaded and fried herring fillets. It had a coleslaw (which I found a surprising addition, creamy mashed potatoes, pickled cucumbers, red onions, and a little wedge of crispbread. I loved every bite. It was a generous plate. I particularly enjoyed eating a combination of the potatoes, cuke, onion, and fish on a corner of the crispbread as I munched away. There are a few nearby picnic type tables. So there was a place I could sit and enjoy this meal overlooking the water and a corner of the old town. If you find yourself in Stockholm, do yourself a favor and go to here. Even if you think you don't like herring, try it this way. I bet you'd be surprised.

My first Fika in Sweden was at this lovely cafe. I later figured out they were everywhere. For…read moreonce, I didn't mind going to a chain. The space was brightly lit, fairly spacious, with comfortable seating, and an inviting atmosphere. I had this almond pastry covered with powdered sugar, along with a Hazelnut Latte. In total, this was around $11. The pastry was absolutely delectable! It was satisfyingly chewy, soft, with actual almond, as well as delightful almond flavor throughout. The Hazelnut Latte was prepared with care, and had a lovely design on top. However, it tasted more like a regular latte. There wasn't enough hazelnut in it. Stopped by another time during my trip, because they were the only bakery-like place still open (most close so early!) I saw they had the Hazelnut Roll, which they were out of last time, so of course I had to get it. The roll was huge, fluffy, flaky, with plenty of hazelnut and hazelnut spread. Mmm! I would be open to trying more from this spot, but would want to check out more non-chain cafes for Fika in the future.

All of them except this one. Food taste like when I am in French countryside, but nicely presented as Swedish standards dictates. Drinks are OK (I would have loved to have teas like mariage or betjeman). But even if the food is good, this is not why I think this place is amazing. It is because I think that they achieved to mix something utterly difficult: making French and Swedish cultures cohabitate but not mix. Taking the strong and pleasant aspect of each, at least from my French point of view, and letting them shine. The place is small, and the decoration not bragging its origin, so what I am describing will be much more found in details and behavior of the service. In one sentence, they are comforting because they know that they are doing a great job, with passion, and take pride of it without the need to play a role or brag about it. And they are caring. Overall, this place is very much approved.

The interior decor is nice and the whole place has a quaint hip neighborhood feel to it. The staff was also lovely and helpful here! I adored the chicken, mayo and egg baguette that I ordered. Their other options included more sandwiches, soups, and salads. The soup that I saw ordered by a pal looked quite delightful and filling as well. The price I paid for lunch was also wonderful at 65:-. I have to wonder what the going rate for a subway sandwich is these days, because my baguette was a million times more delightful and also an economical sandwich style lunch option. I would definitely consider this place if your in the area. TIP- If you like the cups here you can buy them at the store next door. The owner's wife is the ceramist and makes them all. They are quite pricey, but absolutely beautiful!

Finally, I decided to visit the Moderna Museet (which, as an aside, is really excellent and gives a hefty student discount). I poked my head into the restaurant, and decided to give it a whirl. I'm glad I did! I had the 150 kr. fish lunch (~$23), and it was a great value for Stockholm. It came with a salad and bread. The salad was a standard spring mix, with a lot of frisee. The bread options were numerous, and I ended up with the crunchy flatbread (a better version of the kind you can get at Ikea). The fish itself was some sort of salmon analogue, and was very well-prepared. It had a light buttery sauce, but it seemed really light. Not heavy at all. It had pureed vegetables underneath, and some sort of balsamic sauce. It came with a side of warm pickled potatoes, which were excellent (I know the description sounds odd). This was truly the only decent meal I had in Stockholm, because everything else was just sooooooo expensive. Definitely check this one out, and definitely check out the museum itself as well.
