Top 5 fika places in Stockholm
Going for a Fika is a must-do when visiting Stockholm. It’s more than just a coffee break, fika is a ritual of slowing down to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, often paired with a delicious pastry like a cinnamon bun or cardamom bun. Stockholm’s cozy cafes, from charming old-town spots to sleek modern bakeries, offer the perfect setting to relax and embrace the Swedish culture. Hereby my top 5 of best fika spots in Stockholm.
Rosendals trädgård
Rosendals Trädgård is one of Stockholm’s true gems! It is a garden café located in a fantastic setting on Djurgåden island. Rodendals trädgård is a lovely place for a fika. Their pastries are made in the bakery next door. Besides offering pastries, they have also fantastic salads, soups and sandwiches. Enjoy your Fika in their greenhouse, or when the sun is out, find a spot in their garden. Don't forget to pop into the little boutique before you leave, so you can take some of their lovely products back home. The best way to get here is to walk from the bridge Djurgårdsbron, follow the canal and you will see the signs. Or you can take Tram 7 to Djurgården and jump at the final station at Waldemarsudde. From there is just a few minute's walks.
