Guidebook for Solna & Stockholm
Restaurants & Cafes
Like the name says, this is a fairly standard place. The pizza’s however are particularly good and very BIG (good value; I recommend!) - 80 -100 kr. They are the only restaurant in the area open till midnight everyday. It’s right across the street from the apartment (you can see it from the balcony). From Solna station, go straight to the tunnel and turn left (going up the stairs). Walk 20 meters and you are there.

(translated: The Frog) - if you want to eat very-well made & authentic Swedish food visit this restaurant. It’s actually not more pricier than any other fine dining place (200kr+/€20+ per dish) and it has a classic ambience with very good service. Tip! The Swedish meatballs are delicious.

If you are crazy about ABBA this is the place to go :) 2 min walk from Skansen and 5-10 min walk from Vasa museum. A bit on the pricey side (ca 250 kr) but may be worth it if you are a big fan of them.

This is my favourite panorama view point in Stockholm - it’s a must. It's not marked on Google maps, so it’s a bit of a secret.
Not only does it show you a view of the old town and the city hall - but also the area around (Monteliusvägen) is very cute, with very cool 19th century buildings and cobblestone roads. Strongly recommend.

My favourite speakeasy bar in Stockholm. Feels more like you are in London and NYC (scaled down though). Open during the weekends for burlesque shows and amazing singing, or why not go on a Thursday for naughty bingo.

Food trucks are inside. Amazing during the summer. They invite DJs from all over the world to play - so keep track of the current game schedule on their fb/ig.
