It is a wonderful place with lots of dessert to choose from at an old mansion surrounded by beautiful relaxing nature close to water. It is too bad that it's far away from Stockholm but it's worth the visit.    I have three complaints though. 1. A lot of dessers have nuts in them (I'm allergic), 2. There are not many desserts with berries such as blueberry or strawberry pies which you would expect in a such places, and 3. The quiches (they call them "pies" also) got much smaller but the price stayed the same since 7 years ago (or perhaps they raise the price. I don't remember exactly how much they were). You can see in my photos that they look like someone whipped up leftovers to make a meal. We were still hungry after that. Very sad.    My advice is that to eat lunch/dinner elsewhere before/after the visit at this café. read more

What can I say? A paradise for the people with a sweet tooth. It is very pricy though and they say it's a "cake buffet" which its not. It's just a lot of different cakes, cookies and other items - and you pay for each one of them. I'm not that impressed of the cakes and cookies. I like the view and the area more and that is why I've returned more than once, and the reason it gets more than two stars. I could skip the "fika" all together and save the money for something else. But I guess it's something you should experience at least once .. eating sweets until you bursts .. read more

Came here for a Christmas buffét a dark December afternoon. Its located about 45 minutes south of central Stockholm and a bit of the track. So you better assign a designated driver or go big by cabbing it here. Once you get here you will see the magnificent castle right of the sea. A "Castle" it is, and its probably not every day you get to visit one. They have a Cafe here normally but we were here for the whole Christmas deal. Interior brings your thoughts back in history and its both comfy and classy. The dinner is divided into three parts, where you will be upstairs for the "glogg", stroll down for the big dinner and back up again for dessert. There are lots of rooms upstairs and they are airy and furnished with lots of different seating. Christmas dinner assortment was everything i wanted it to be, without being extraordinary. The atmosphere was peaceful and cozy. The only thing i was missing was the Snow, that would have given the castle even more luster. If you like old classic styled Christmas, dont hesitate going here, bring your fanciness and be royal for a night! read more

We went for a typical swedish "julbord" here at the historic building Taxinge slott. We were greeted at the door by a employee as she walked us through the christmas dinner details. We hung our clothes on the second floor were we also got to enjoy a warm cup of glögg. Protip: meanwhile you enjoy your glögg you can take a moment and look at the beautiful enterior, a mix of both modern and old elements! We then moved downstairs to dine, the buffé has everything you expect form a christmas table, from meatballs to swedish cheese cake! I really enjoyed the sausage and meat table with diffrent hams, sausages and mustards to try, they also had fun creme fraiche with cloud berries! When we were done we made our way upstairs for the dessert table and depending on how much you had been consuming this could take awhile! The dessert table was wonderful and had even more to choose from then the dinner table! This place gets four stars for the cozy location which is perfectfo you to sit and have a cup of glögg with your family in the cold winter season. Because of it's size you don't really feel the amount of people and you don't have to worry about the screaming children, instead it feels like an intimate christmas dinner at home or in a Astrid Lindgren movie! So now don't get me wrong I really enjoyed the table and thought it was very satisfying however I expected a bit more to choose from and for the price I think you payed alot for the location! Anyway a great little trip to get away from the christmas heist! read more
