Under the tents at Gården Bar & Grill.
There’s nothing better than enjoying a drink outside on a sunny evening with friends. Last night, I checked out the brand-new hot spot in town: Gården Bar & Grill (see Gården). It’s located in Norra Bantorget in the gardens just in front of the Norra Latin school and the Clarion Hotel Sign. And it just opened last Thursday.
Like any new spot in Stockholm, it seems this place is instantly popular and we waited for about 20 minutes at the bar before we got served. But the location is fabulous and I like the set-up under the tents and next to the fountain. Although we did not eat, we checked out the menu and it includes traditional favorites such as lax and toast skagen. When we tried to order one of the burgers at the bar at about 8.15, we were told they were all out of food! I definitely want to check out the place again though as the burgers are being grilled outside.

This is SO Swedish.
Everybody goes to the place to be…and of course the service is nonexistent because. Likely good places nearly empty down the street.
We ran into this the other day at the Kulturhuset. There was a huge line upstairs at the cafeteria –where Swedes eat lunch. Same food, same price, lots of empty tables, no line, but in the bar area…where Swedes don’t do lunch.
Betty and I got a great table, excellent food, and no wait.
Hi Tom,
It is rather funny how it works here, isn’t it? We are in a trendy city!
