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.

In spring you can have a picnic under the blossoming apple trees. In summer you can enjoy a great variety of blooming flowers and have a glass of wine outdoors. Autumn is the harvest time when you can taste several sorts of apples or buy a pumpkin. Winter is simply good for sitting around the fireplace with a cup of herb tea!

This is the place to experience Swedish cuisine at its finest and pick up top-quality ingredients to take home. Enjoy an authentic Swedish bite at Tysta Mari – the salmon bake is especially tasty, as is the fried herring with mashed potatoes and lingonberries.

If you appreciate interesting interiors, this place is bound to please – the DJ booth floats above the dance floor loft-style, and there’s a secret door that leads to fun and frivolous bar. Drop by for a drink and around-the-table ping-pong on a Monday or Tuesday evening, or wait until the weekend for some serious down-and-dirty dancing.

It's a really cosy place that might get a little crowded in the evening. In the summer they also have a seating area outside on the street Katarina Bangata which is always calm. Choose either 1 dish for 98kr or combine 2 for only +7kr.

You don't have to be a vegetarian to appreciate the food, most people who come here aren't. The buffet is all-you-can-eat and includes hot and cold dishes, many of them a little bit spicy and very tasty. They also have a variety of desserts that are really good but these aren't included in the buffet.

They have an open fire grill which gives their food that nice smoky flavor you are looking for in Turkish food. Their cheap and their servings are quite generous. From the street this place does not look as good as it tastes. Try it out and you won't be disappointed!

Employees at Skansen are kind and helpful and their animal expert is one of the most famous (and awesome) person in Sweden.
It's never crowed, unless you are by the big stage on Tuesdays in the summer when "Allsång På Skansen" is present. It's a show where singers

Since moving to Stockholm from Reykjavik this is my go to place for pizza and beer! They have their own beers on tap and they always have new beers each time I'm there. Their pizzas are also quite experimental. So if you like pizza and beer and you're in the mood to try something different, try this place!

Firstly, they serve great traditional Swedish food if you want to try that and their staff is very friendly. The place have been around for many years and is very popular, so you might want to book a table. Secondly, the restaurant has an awesome bar downstairs that you should visit after dinner.

The food is a good enough reason to visit. They have the best seafood, and a unique atmosphere. The staff is lovely, and the area it is located in is a really up and coming hot-spot in Stockholm. They have two restaurants right next to each other – both are worth a visit.

If you’re on a budget and craving something more palatable than lacklustre falafel and limp fries, Beijing8 will satisfy your belly, wallet and conscience. Not in the area? Not to worry – they have another restaurant at Grev Turegatan 1, and another at Kungsgatan 25.
