    Pastries near front
    Connie L.

    I stopped by here on a Friday afternoon around 1:30 pm for lunch/a snack while staying in the area. The café is located on a street that has a lot of different businesses, shops, and cafés. It looks very small at first, but if you go further in, there is actually a ton of seating. The café was pretty busy when I arrived--there were a lot of students studying and groups of friends chatting--but I was able to find a seat very easily. I ordered a prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich, a regular black coffee, and a black currant bun for dessert. My total came out to be about 145 krona. I was able to pay with my American bank card with no issues. The sandwiches are already constructed and sitting at the front of the café, but they freshly panini press them to order. There was a variety of delicious looking pastries at the front for takeaway as well as at the main counter for dine-in. The menu is in Swedish but the staff were fluent in English and seemed very happy to explain the offerings in English. They were super nice and patient with me. I wasn't entirely clear on whether they bring you your food or if you're meant to wait around for it, but I went back to the counter after finding a seat and my food was ready to be picked up at that point. My sandwich was really tasty and I enjoyed the black currant bun--I probably wouldn't get it again because I'd like to try the other baked goods and I think black currant ultimately isn't really for me as a matter of personal taste, but I appreciated that it was well made. I stayed at the café for about an hour and was not bothered during that time; this is definitely a good place to get some studying done, have a chat with friends, or have some time to yourself. The atmosphere was very clean and minimalist, with a bit of a hipster vibe. There were unisex bathrooms--small but clean and well supplied. Again, I wasn't sure if I was supposed to bus my own dishes but as I was getting ready to leave, one of the staff happened to pop in and cleared my table for me. The staff seemed to come through intermittently to clean up other tables throughout my stay. I really enjoyed eating here; if I were local, I could easily imagine this to be an ideal place to hang out regularly. It seemed to be popular with both locals and visitors. The staff were so helpful and friendly and the café had a great vibe.

    Loved this café! Great coffee and so many cozy areas, go all the way in! A bit industrial like environment, made me dream back to the San Francisco style cafés. Had a coffee here and did some work between meetings. Perfect for this, but just to chill out with some friends works fine as well I guess!

    This is a very cool space that has a bit of edginess to it with some of the wall art. There is a very reasonable amount of seating and each time I've been here I've seen a few people working on laptops, so it could be a good space for that. They have very good lattes and a friendly staff. When you enter, you are welcomed by some beautiful pastries as well as a section where you can get some sandwiches. You are able to order these items at the sandwich counter. They also have some of the pastries at the barista counter so you could easily order a coffee and pastry there as well.

    Double espresso and a cinnamon bun. Both were great!

    This place is the best. I went in here this afternoon looking for some lunch and was not disappointed. As soon as I walked in, I felt welcomed by all of the staff. I ordered a prosciutto and mozzarella panini on some great crusty bread and had a double espresso and cinnamon bun for dessert. Hit the spot and was only 145 SEK to boot!

    Over two years later and it's still as good or even better I would say. Coffee is still top notch. So is the 'kanelbulle' and all other stuff. Almost never the same staff when I drop in, once a quarter or so, but they are all very nice and friendly people. The hiring Mgr must be one of the best in town. I just love it coffee !!

    Cappuccino with oat milk

    Stopped here by way of a recommendation of our waiter at a nearby restaurant. It was early afternoon and buzzing with locals, tourists like ourselves, and majority of people on their laptops. Much of the breads and sweets appeared to have been sold out by the afternoon but we heard they are delicious. Coffee was excellent.

    A twist on traditional Swedish cinnamon buns - black currants and pistachios - with a delicious latte.

We came here an early Sunday morning, before I had to catch the bus back to Arlanda Airport (which leaves from right on the other side of the street, next to Fridhemsplan t-bana). That perfect location made us choose to go here, but I'd definitely go back! At first it looked as if they don't have that much to choose from thought, but all three of us got what we wanted and they serve good coffee ánd fresh orange juices! I went for a croissant, kanelbulle (to say goodbye to Sweden ;)), a latte and an orange juice and paid 105kr for all that. It was more than enough to start the day with, take a bus to the airport to ánd fly back to Amsterdam, so I was happy. And yep: I'm a fan.

    I wish there was a zero star review option on the Yelp as well! I went there with a friend on a…read moreSaturday for brunch. They had really limited options to choose from. 3,4 kinds of pastry, 2 kinds of juices, one kind of yogurt & fried egg sandwiches with/ without salami on them. The sandwiches were stacked up on top of each other outside the fridge right at the cashier( the point where you walked in) so I assumed they were there only to display so I asked here that if I order egg sandwich I'll get a hot egg, right? She said no these are the sandwiches & it is served cold, do you want hot, I said yeah assuming that she was gonna crack an egg for me and make one but then she just put one of those sandwiches in a microwave! And you probably know what kind of smell to expect from a heated fried egg!! Absolutely disgusting! They also serve their coffee in a plastic cup which was a huge minus for me. I think the whole idea with this cafe must have been a hipster simple hang out but it has gone terribly wrong and all that is, is really a dump looking place with a bunch of worn out furniture & plastic dishes to serve food in! And last but not least,they charge me 70 SEK for a fairly small( compare to other cafes) sandwich & a lousy late which makes this place one of the most overpriced cafes in the whole Stockholm!

Sandwiches are…read moregenerally good, the Hallancheesecake is basically the staple of my visit though it is certainly not gourmet, and the WiFi works well. The interior is warm and cozy in the winter, and despite the busy and fairly loud seating along Sankt Eriksgatan, it's a good spot to sit outside, considering. The Chai Tea Latte is massive but varies widely on taste (remember it fondly in the Winter, not so much in the Summer), and what's up with the 5kr refills for coffee? Jury is in on the Muffins: not worth it though they look like they will be. Overall, I still have a lot of love for this place and recommend it for the area. It's a good spot to work, a good spot for a conversation and it's open late.

    The place is rather tacky with its fake brick walls, torch holder and gold framed mirror. I'm told…read moreit's Stockholms oldest café but I can't say they treat the locale with much dignity. Great address, friendly staff behind the counter. Prices are as in all other cafés in the city - around 80 SEK for a salad, around 40 SEK for any slice of pie or cake. But what do you get? The salad is a bit dry (they offer extra vinegrette in a bottle at the counter) and the chocolate cake is too (but vinegrette probably won't help that). Cream for your hot chocolate or chocolate cake comes from a can. Not very luxurious but the public has gotten used to it so I guess we have to settle for it. The hours are very generous (for being Stockholm) - they're even open till 10 pm on Sundays. However, well before 9:40 pm they picked everything off our table, shut down the music, turned up the lights and started just standing around to indicate that they really wanted us out of there. Minutes later they started moving tables and cleaning the floor. I'm of the opinion that if a place claims to be open until 10 pm, guest should be able to be there and feel welcome until 10 pm. If they want to clean out the place and go home by 10, they should say they're open for guests until 9:30. Now we left rather bummed out. If nothing else is open (which unfortunately is likely), I'd come back here.

Although the passageway where the interior seating is situated seemed awkward it actually worked out well. Service, despite a crowd, was fairly quick, I would rate the coffee an A or 9/10 on the scale of strength, low acidity/smoothness. It is espresso based and made to exact order. There are serval options for milk (whole, oat, 1/2 and 1/2, etc). The major complaint would be that there is no easy place to throw away your rubbish, nor is there a place that is clearly evident to bust your dishes, which is much needed given that this is a super busy place.. The staff is too busy to bus tables regularly, which backs up the availability of seating . This is the major reason for a one star deduction.. TIP: You can buy beans or ground coffee for home brewing.

Unfortunately,…read moreI couldn't find any restaurants on Yelp that said they served Swedish pancakes in Stockholm. The only restaurants that came up served American style pancakes. So, when we got up and were ready to go, we headed to a cafe that came highly recommended. When we got there, 45 minutes after it was supposed to open, it was unfortunately closed. So, we ended up walking around the city, hoping to find another option for a good breakfast. We didn't find anything on our walk, so we jumped on a bus and looked around. We went by a place that looked like it had potential, so we stopped the bus and got off. We walked into Thelins Konditori and saw an amazing assortment of baked goods and sweets! I looked up on the menu board and was extremely excited to see Pannkaka! I ordered up a glass of hot chocolate and some pannkakor. Thelins is a very nice Konditori with a good atmosphere. It is clean and the employees are helpful. The restrooms are extremely dimly lit. The woman behind the counter gave us some small glasses of hot chocolate with whipped cream. The chocolate definitely was not hot... lukewarm at best. The whipped cream was great and the flavor was really good too. I would rank Thelins 9th place in my hot chocolate tour of Europe. The pancakes were excellent! There were 3 pancakes folded up in triangles and served with a cup of whipped cream and a cup of strawberries to top them off. The flavor and texture of the pancakes were great and I was very happy to finally have some Swedish pancakes. Thelins is extremely expensive, but that is pretty much a common theme in all of the restaurants and cafes in Stockholm.
