This is my kind of place. A Dive Bar with rock'n'roll music, sounds awesome to me…read more When you walk in you see a bar, a couple of tables and bars and a nice crowd of people enjoying their drinks. The place is not too big, so you may need to give enough space so people can move, which can be a little annoying if you are having a conversation, but that's the vibe of the bar so embrace it. Want me to tell you a secret? Can you see that little set of stairs going down? You should adventure yourself and find out. I came here with a friend and we got to listen to a very cool band. Downstairs you will find a little concert venue, and another bar. The only thing missing were people dancing, the song was too good to be standing there, but I understand that Swedes need a couple of drinks before they can hit the dance floor. The place reminded me of a venue I used to go in my early 20's, and I had lots of fun. Beers are affordable, music is good and you are in for a fun night.

Decked out in black tiles and a slick, glossy, and exceedingly beautiful veneer. With a suitably titled range of drinks, cocktails and more to match, Pet Sounds bar is one of my favourite places to be at night in the Swedish capital. Half bar, half restaurant, I am as yet to try out the latter half of this cool night spot, but if the drinks are anything to go by there is no doubting that it will be fine and delicious. There isn't masses of space to sit, between bar stools, window seats and a few tables, without moving into the restaurant portion of the venue. Anyhow, if you need a place to drink with great cocktails and a super atmosphere, then look no further, and if you require a fat slab of vinyl at the same time then, drop by early enough and you can hit up the music shop too. By way of recommendation, try the New York New York. So what are you waiting for?

A very quiet and romantic place to start your night OR end with a nightcap. It is a smaller venue…read moreso groups of 6+ would be difficult to accommodate. I came in on a Friday night and had terrific service and very friendly customers who welcomed me as I was the only American at the bar. I enjoyed four rounds of drinks, three Swedish Craft Beers and a French Aged Cider. The staff were very happy to share their best selection with me! They offer small palates, appetizers, and gourmet meats and cheeses to pair with their extensive Beer, Wine, and Cocktail lists. If you are an explorer and like to venture out to new venues like me, this place was more local and a typical Swedish hangout for the younger crowd. One disclaimer that didn't make this a perfect experience, there was a terrible stink/ sewage problem the night I was in.. Not sure if it was with their piping or back of house but it was quite fowl. I'm sure this was a one night problem but it got in the way of catching the aromas of both the cider and beer! A weird thing to mention but it was the laugh of the bar that night. Hope to come back another time and enjoy their updated drink and food lists!

My sisters led us here for lunch on our first day on the town. Apparently a cool kids hang out in…read morean ultra hip area of Stockholm. Wooden benches outside and a small eating area with bar inside. I did not get what all the hype was about, but than again I am certainly not one of the 'cool kids' - the old crank that I am. The early afternoon sun was burning down on us with no shade in sight. So the cold beers went down quick, one after another. This naturally made a world of diffrence and may have been strategically orchestrated by members of my group. I had a mac and cheese which was surprisingly good. In hindsight, just about everything we ate in Stockholm was simply on another level. The quality and care that goes into the preparation is simply superior to what occurs back home. Dishes are kept simple and made with fresh ingredients. Everything is made to order. So all in all despite some of my initial reluctance we ended on a high note and had a great lunch. If you're young and hip this is definitely a place to go.

The bread and butter was good and the beautiful small madeleines served together with the coffee was to die for! Friendly service and a odd but nice location in the basement beneath a shop in the middle of Swedish suburbia. Great value for your money and a good enough reason to get out of the city!

Or if you are not much of a beer drinker ask for a dry or semi dry cider (they only sell bottled). It is teally good and so much better than that Swedish sweet yucky kind. I would go back for the pins, maybe not for the place itself even if I am fond of the name.
