Mikkeller was an unexpected "wow" moment for this week! What started as a trip to an old sushi spot…read moreended in a serendipitous encounter with the awesome experts at Mikkeller who cunningly sucked us in and convinced us to give it a try - despite the fact we were originally jonesing for sushi. We started with an amazing passionfruit sour and the chicken, lemon, and leek croquettes small plate, moved to a delicious and SUPER fresh salmon smørrebrød, and finished with pan fried mushrooms and goat cheese paired with the smoothest cherry wine I've ever tasted. The mushrooms were a tad too salty to be honest, but considering it was on the house due to one of our croquettes being a little undercooked, we couldn't complain. I'd give the food and drink a solid 4 stars but would give it 10 stars for service and concept if I could so I rounded to 5. Thanks for an awesome spontaneous dining experience!

Off the beaten place, Mikkeller provides an inviting atmosphere with plenty of beers to go around…read more 24 beers on tap and a selection of traditional Danish open faced sandwiches. The pricing of the beer is typical for Stockholm but the variety is unique. If you like trying new beers, this is the place to go.

This was our favorite meal in Stockholm. We visited a few weeks after their opening, during…read morevacation time when many restaurants are closed. That meant we were lucky enough to be the only ones eating there! Several people sat at the bar behind us, where they serve the beer they brew and other alcohol. I have to avoid gluten and shellfish, and the menu easily accommodated me. Swedish menus often say to talk to the server if you have allergies, so they're nice about it. We had a delicious asparagus hors d'oeuvre with dots of browned butter emulsion (tasted like Hollandaise) on the plate. I had char with mushroom tapenade, beets, and new potatoes, and Tom had lamb with halloumi cheese, vegetables, roasted garlic gravy and herb baked potato. Both dishes were perfectly done. I am not enthusiastic about lamb, but this was the best I'd ever tasted. For dessert we had the chocolate truffles, which were also fantastic. Tom asked about the beer that they brew, and the server/bartender brought two samples. They were both so good, he had one of each. I am more of a wine drinker, but I thought the beers were excellent. Please try Waza! I would love to go back there some day, so if you like it, spread the word!

The pizza itself is a little greasy due to the chorizo, but otherwise excellent. The beer is the real bonus--Omnipollo's own brews, with everything from sours to dessert stouts. Perfect pairings for the pizzas. Atmosphere is laid-back and busy. Small space, order at the bar. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. We were lucky and grabbed a table outside. No reservations, so come early or plan to wait. Would definitely come back to try more. Solid spot for a casual, flavorful pizza!

Stockholm Brewing company has a lunch menu that changes weekly. There are different feature meals…read moreof the week, including meat, fish and veggie options. The meal also comes with bread, salad and coffee and dessert if you want. The food quality was extremely impressive. I forgot to take pictures of the salad but I've replicated them at home since. One was a kale and purple cabbage salad with a nice vinaigrette and the other was a chunky tomato and cucumber salad. The main dishes were super good and filling. We split a dessert (a chocolate ganache cake) because we were quite full by that point. We also got some light lunch beers to go with our meal. The space is quite large and while it was quite busy when we arrived, the service was quick and there were still numerous seating options. People tend to eat and leave - it's more cafeteria style than restaurant style that way. The quality of food and the price were very good. I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Found this pub in Old Town Stockholm when we went to watch some weekend football matches (European…read morenot American). The pub itself had a good vibe where everyone was friendly and genuinely enjoying themselves. The decor of the pub was a lot of a lot of pub signs and usual things that you would find in a pub. It has a small but pretty cool layout when you could go down some winding stairs and find yourself in another seating area. Because of the pubs popularity and game time it was very packed in the bar area but the bar tender did a good job of attending to everyone. As for the food I enjoyed the fries we had and the vegan burger was alright. As you know my ratings go off of the expectations of how the place rates against similar places so as old school pubs go this was good, but do understand that typical old school pubs aren't well lit, don't have all balanced tables, and great seating in the entire place to enjoy the game. So if you're looking for those things you might want to check out some other places.
