The semla was light and fluffy with an amazing almond filling and topped with whipped cream. The fudge cake was unbelievable. So dense and rich with a true chocolate flavor and not too sweet. Just perfect!

This is my favourite tea shop in the whole wide world (and apart from travelling places I have…read morelived in Australia, the UK and the US). They have walls full of tea and walls full of everything you need to drink tea, including some stuff you could never imagine you would need to drink tea. The tea itself is very affordable. If you want to buy any tins, jars, special packaging or something else, however, they are not on the cheap side. They do have high quality stuff and that is what you pay for. Mix and match teas, ask them about your wildest tea imagination or go with a simple classic; these people know their stuff. All people who work here are tea experts and clearly love the art of tea blending and tea drinking. They will help you out and you will leave very happy. I've been coming here for years buying Christmas and birthday gifts. They have everything ranging from cheap (a bag of tea) to expensive (fancy tea sets). If you have a friend or a loved one who loves tea, this is the place to go. While you're at it, pick up some tea for yourself. It will change your world and your tea drinking will never be the same. If you want to try one of their brews, Bibliotekscaféet across the street usually has a pot of Tehörnan's te standing next to the coffee. Free refills.

Aktiebolaget Tehörnan bildades år 1987 då familjen Ulla och Rolf Nilsson tog vid. Sedan dess är Tehörnan familjeägd men idag har nästa generation fått ta vid och driver företaget vidare inom samma familj. Tehörnan återfinns än idag i Umeå centrum (Utopia), men sedan år 1993 finns vi även i Uppsala (Forumgallerian och Svartbäcksgatan).

I had a lunch here of a quiche with sundries tomato and cheese, and also some sort of small strong espresso with chocolate in it that wasn't too sweet. I was satisfied. I think the food here is better than some fancy restaurant places and it all cost me about 100kr. Not bad.

As there are no Starbucks in Umeå, a foreigner has to branch out! Espresso House has a really nice…read moreinterior, with plenty of seating, including big leather couches. It's a nice ambience for fika or even getting some work done. There's even a fancy wooden tic-tac-toe board for a few rounds of nostalgic fun. I ordered a salted caramel macchiato on my first visit, and it was larger than I expected and very good -- a nice complement to the carrot and cardamom muffin I got (though I wish it had come with a bit more cream cheese frosting). My fiancé had the mud cake, and I'm pretty sure he liked it, because I only got one bite. :/ One thing I can't recommend is the strawberry white chocolate frappino. It tasted like it could benefit from a handful of fresh strawberries. Anyway, the barista was very nice and let me swap it out for a cookies and cream frappino, and I was MUCH happier with the flavor! If I'm ever in Umeå again, I will definitely revisit Espresso House.
