Surprisingly nice and well-situated restaurant in Gävle (first time there for us, passing through…read moreon our way from Sundsvall to Stockholm). Good food, including kid-friendly selection. Maybe a bit on the high side cost-wise, at least for lunch. The service was very pleasant and helpful, though it started a bit confused when we arrived 15 mins before opening (1pm on a Monday). Have not tried any other restaurants in Gävle, but do highly recommend this place.

Was very surprised to walk in a see a Western theme restaurant in this small town in Sweden!! But…read morethe food was marvelous!! One of the best meals we have had anywhere (and that includes a large part of the world as we travel a lot!). We were there on a Tuesday evening (we had rented a house on the Bothnia Sea not far from Skutskar) and there was very little activity. The waiter brought the menu over and when he discovered we were Americans, he sat down at the table and with limited English went over the menu with us (which was in Swedish-no English). I decided to go with the pork steaks which came surrounded by a ring of masked potatoes with a bernaise sauce and a mixture of onions, carrots, and zuchini underneath. Really, really excellent and the portion was big enough to leave even Americans satisfied!! My wife had the seafood mixture whcih was jumbo shrimp, salmon steak and another fish, also excellent. My brother in law had the lamb chops and while I do not eat lamb, he thought it was excellent as well and he said he had never gotten 6 chops on a plate before! I had a ligonberry cheesecake (which seems to be the national berry in Sweden which I have now come to love!!). All the dishes were presented well as you can see from the photos. Certainly would reccommend this place even if you had no plans to stop in Skutskar!! Excellent!!

Told by some that driving from Stockholm to Fäviken was foolish while most Swedes seemed to agree…read morethat a ride through the wilderness in Summer would justify time spent by scenery it was after a few hours of lush landscapes that the car arrived in Gävle, the waterside municipality of 100,000 looking a lot like many European cities of similar size and proving to be a worthwhile stop for Food thanks to Épi Bageri & Café. No doubt the "big fish in a small pond" of local gathering spots, a store along Norra Kungsgatan easily accessible from the bustling public square found fairly empty an hour before closing, it was with a lone employee present that items were perused and selections made at prices approximately 20% less than the Stockholm average, only a few minute's wait dividing payment from the delivery of a Brie and fresh Produce atop toasted housemade Bread topped and dotted in Seeds. Sipping minty Water with a touch of Lemon, a flavor refreshing with the Sandwich though far less so alongside sweeter selections, it was after obtaining a fresh glass of tap from the downstairs restroom that better bites were taken of a Cinnamon Roll that proved somewhat dry nine hours after baking, the thin wedge of Coconut Cake proving a far better choice thanks to its toasty top atop a buttery base that seemed as though it was made from Almond Flour. A bit limited so late in the day, Social Media comments about Épi lacking seating indicative of early morning and lunch rushes, it was with two Chocolate choices that tasting came to a close, the Chokladboll low in Coconut but texturally heterogeneous thanks to plenty of Oats while a wedge of "Veganbit med Notter" offered dense Ganache supporting Hazelnuts atop a crisp crust that was pleasantly bitter.
