Cozy environment, friendly staff. (They have been helping me learn Swedish!)…read moreAnd they KNOW their beer. So ask questions! I'm always trying something new. I always feel welcome here whether I am on my own or in a group. (That's very rare in Sweden, I have found). As an outsider, it took me a while to realize that you're not really welcome at any restaurant unless you arrive in your standard group of 2, 4, 6, 16, etc. Swedes go out exclusively in groups (as far as I can tell). So, if you are here alone on business, good luck. Menu items are tricky. Try the nightly special. Sometimes it is over the top fantastic. I also like the fish and chips, bookman's toast, oxfile and a few others. Overall though, I find myself coming here 2-3 times a week. Oh, and you can eat at the counter which just isn't done anywhere else in town. (Only in Sweden do you open a sushi bar with no bar!) Oh, and it's a pub, so you order/pay at the bar, but they bring the food to your table. If you are traveling alone on business this is also great since you can leave when you want, instead of waiting forever for the check to arrive. So, if you find yourself stuck in Linköping and you like beer, this place is a must. Enjoy.

The Bishops Arms is a chain of pubs owned by the same guy who owns all the Elite hotels in Sweden…read more They are usually found next door to an Elite hotel but in this case it is a few blocks from the hotel but they are still affiliated so the voucher you get as a frequent guest at Elite can be used here. The concept is simple - large variety of craft beer (around 20 or so on tap and many more by the bottle) as well as impressive selection of whiskey combined with well-made pub grub, The look is the typical English pub and I appreciate the fact that there is never a TV in any of the Bishops Arms pubs and the music is kept at a low volume so it is easy to speak. This specific Bishops Arms is not my favorite as the staff can at times be a bit disinterested and the clientele to some extent appear to be local drunks (a bit uncommon for Bishops arms as the price level usually keep them out but perhaps the local drunks in Linköping are more affluent than elsewhere). The food here is however still pretty decent and the dish of the day is usually good value for money.
