Stockholm is a city boasting exceptional seafood, which is no wonder considering it’s surrounded by water teeming with both fresh and saltwater delicacies. There are plenty of restaurants and cafés specialising in traditional Swedish cuisine, and a huge assortment of Indian, Italian, Thai and Turkish joints.

Eating out in Stockholm is notoriously expensive though, especially for those on a budget. It’s worthwhile knowing that almost all cafés and restaurants offer well-priced daily lunches (dagens lunch) that typically include a main dish, salad, bread and coffee.

Note that many restaurants and cafés are closed during the summer months, so it’s wise to call ahead.
