The bar is small, unassuming and finds itself on a street filled with conspicuous, Italian restaurants hosting happy hours for corporate Swedes. The bar is a standout for the drinks, the trademark Swedish charisma and genuine warmth. As a side, shout out to Sweden for having the nicest, most welcoming people in the world. We were given a standing table when we got in, but quickly moved to a couple of seats by the bar. We were one of 8 couples at the bar, so yes, very date night vibes. For our first round of drinks, we got the Easy Martini and Let them Eat Cake. The latter was too sweet for our liking but the Easy Martini had the perfect amount of sweet and tart. Our second round was the winner with the Girl Dinner and their Old Fashioned. The Girl dinner was crafted to perfection and possibly the best version of a martini we've ever had. The old fashioned too, made with WhistlePig 10 years was fantastic. The service cannot be faulted, we profusely thanked the lovely bartender, vowing to crow about it to whoever cares to listen and to be back when we are in Stockholm next.

The Scandic Cloud Sky bar on the 34th floor has an amazing view. To access it you can either find…read morethe one elevator that goes all the way up or just take one of the other 5 elevators to the 32nd floor and take the stair two floors up. The bar area is quite small but there is an extra area/floor above the bar to the left so one could argue that they have a 35th floor as well. The selection of drinks are unfortunately not as impressive as the view. Just a couple of beers on tap and the usual drink selection. And then there's the employees. They seem to bored and uninspired and this actually affects the atmosphere. This place should be filled with happy, cheerful customers but that is not the case. The hotel is more or less booked solid everytime I'm there so filling this place should be like shooting fish in a barrel. And they close a bit early too. Closing time is 1:00 am on weekdays and they start flashing the lights at 00:30. Last visit we bought a beer at 00:25 and was more or less asked to down it 00:45. Please let your customers enjoy their drink undisturbed until you close.

This is an awesome hotel in Solna. Well worth my one week stay…read more The hotel is basically brand new (opened in January 2016) with a modern touch, unique from all the other major hotel chains we all know. The theme of the hotel is all to do with winery and has a great collection of wine. They have their own branded wine that they make in-house. The hotel also has a beautiful lobby and bar area on the first floor. The rooms are beautifully laid, comfortable, and quiet, however, they are a little small. The staff is friendly and helpful. They have one of the good breakfast meals and are located in close proximity to the Mall of Scandinavia. You can also access the bus close by, but to get to the train, you'll have to get a taxi. You can also rent the bicycles they have to get around. The Winery Kitchen Restaurant on the first floor has a nice menu for dinner and you need to check it out when you stay here. They also have a pizza restaurant across from the check-in desk which really has awesome food and drinks. Of course, don't forget to sign up for the winery tour! They have a winery just behind the front desk and you can see the oak barrels used to store wine. You can always request to have the tour conducted in English. Overall, wife and I enjoyed our week's stay here.

The beer is an ok price and the staff is really friendly and helpful. Lots of locals keep the atmosphere cozy as well. The food is where it went awry. I really enjoyed the grilled vegetables on my plate but the tuna steak was horribly overcooked. It wasn't seasoned well either, so it was very unpleasant to eat. I also didn't get a picture of my plate because it was messy. Someone I was with got a pulled pork burger and the patty looked like it was made hours ago and just sat in the heat. I definitely don't think the food was worth it. For drinks and sports, though, give it a shot!

This place is at its best on nice summer days, sitting outside on the patio. The service is casual,…read morefriendly, and efficient. The food is priced reasonably and well prepared. I have been quite happy with the burgers served there. Made with a substantial patty of good quality beef, cooked nicely, and too much other stuff (though not bad stuff) piled on. The fries are the same frozen ones that seem ubiquitous in Stockhom. Better quality, thin crispy fries would boost up the experience a notch. This problem is general, not Dick Turpin's alone. I don't get it. Maybe it's a lack of availability of the right type of potatoes- large "baking" potatoes- the ones with the drier crumbly texture. The fish and chips is also good, although it has been a little greasy on one or two occasions. Two large fillets of Cod fried in classic English batter, usually done just about right- crisp golden batter coating on the outside, perfectly cooked fish on the inside. Overall, a nice neighbourhood English style pub with good food and beer and friendly service at fair prices. A ten minute walk from home, so very convenient. I feel fortunate that it's around. PS- Dick Turpin was a notorious Highwayman with an interesting life story.

My friend's medium rare steak was also very good. The restaurant is cozy and the staff were attentive and friendly. They had a menu in English for me as well.

It was pretty busy but we were able to get a table outside without a reservation. We could have been sat inside as well as the hostesses told us she has one table available in 5 minutes possible but inside was busy and loud so keep that in mind. The place is relative small, cozy, tables close together, very warm ambiance. Waitress was nice and gave us recommendations and they did not disappoint. Meatballs are not on the menu but she said they always have them. Biff Rydberg was my favorite, its a nice beef (maybe tenderloin) cut up with grilled onions and some kind of horseradish on the side, comes with diced potatoes. Other items we tried were the hash browns, and the Wallenbergare (Veal cutlet). Everything was good but for me the meatballs and the Biff Rydberg were standouts Check this place out for some traditional food, they also have some good beers on tap, if you're visiting Id recommend giving them a try.

To Black/African nationals BEWARE of the race discrimination by the Head Waitress…read more I am of African-American descent. On August 11, 2024, on my last day touring Stockholm, I approached the restaurant at 6:50 pm after a brief rain shower. The weather was hot prior to the rain shower. After the rain shower, the temperature became slightly chilly. I chose to eat inside. Upon arrival, a young, (20ish) Turkish/Muslim, waiter greeted me. He offered me a table outside. I declined for a table inside. I was instructed to see the Head Waitress "Oosa" [pronunciation] of her first name-spelling unclear]. "Oosa," late 40's, early 50 ish, appeared to be of Muslim descent, approached me. "Oosa" said she was too busy to serve me despite seeing several, single, tables available and open. "Oosa" turned me away. The restaurant inside was busy with open single table. I went across the street to the park. I watched white and Asian patrons approach and enter the restaurant after me. At approx. 7:05pm, I decided to book a table on the restaurant's website. My table was booked at 7:15pm on the same day. The restaurant's online booking had many open slots that day. I reapproached the male waiter. "Oosa" came outside to serve a group of white diners. I then approached "Oosa" showing her my online confirmed reservation. At this point, "Oosa" conceded to let me into the restaurant without incident. I was professionally served by a white, male, waiter who was working inside the restaurant. "Oosa" had 2 white, male, waiters working inside the restaurant. She wasn't over burdened as she tried to proclaim. The Swedish cuisine was excellent. The treatment I received from both male waiters was professional and non-discriminatory. Fast forward: September 14, 2024 I contacted the restaurant. I spoke to "Oosa." She explained she was born in Turkey. She would never discriminate against black people. "Oosa" then said I was turned away because they had too many online reservations. The restaurant was fully booked. I told "Oosa" this is NOT true. I told her I booked an open, online, reservation in order to enter the restaurant shortly after she decline me entry. She could not explain why she admitted white and Asian diners after me with many single tables open and available during the entire 90 minutes I dined in the restaurant. I have formally filed a Race Discrimination complaint against this restaurant and "Oosa" to the Equality Ombudsman (DO) of Sweden who investigate complaints of discrimination. BEWARE Black and African descent people (ethnic people of color) BEWARE of the Head Waitress ("Oosa's") reverse-racist, discriminatory practices. If you are turned away, do an ONLINE booking. She can not turn you away. If she does, refer to https://www.do.se/choose-language/english or call the local police for assistance. Put "Oosa" on public display in front of diners demanding the exercise of your civil rights.
