A meal is an experience, from the moment you enter the restaurant until to pay your bill. Some restaurants like to take it one step further! Check out these six Stockholm restaurants offering unique themes and concepts:
Izakaya
Address: Brunkebergstorg 2-4, 111 51 Stockholm
Izakaya means "beer hall" in Japanese, and it is the classic Japanese venues and streets of Osaka that have provided the inspiration for this restaurant. Come here to try fabulous dishes with Japanese flavours and Nordic ingredients. The food is ideal for sharing and the design creates a wonderfully social vibe!
Sjätte Tunnan
Address: Stora Nygatan 43, 111 27 Stockholm
Are you longing for the good, old days? It seems the founders of Sjätte Tunnan does too. They have created a medieval restaurant that takes you back 580 years, right in the heart of Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s Old Town. At Sjätte Tunnan you'll travel back to 1435, the year the rebel leader and freedom fighter Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson was appointed Rikshövitsman or Commander in Chief.
If the medieval vibe still seems a little distant, Sjätte Tunnan offers you different forms of medieval entertainment, from belly dancers to conjurers and magicians. In terms of music, Sjätte Tunnan delivers tunes from fiddles, hurdy-gurdies and bagpipes. Staff dressed in fabulous robes serve authentic medieval mead for an authentic vibe!
ICEBAR Stockholm
Address: Vasaplan 4, 111 20 Stockholm
Sure, this is a bar, not a restaurant, but we just couldn't stop ourselves from including this epic venue!
