The Best Cafés in Sweden

The best cafés in Sweden, according to the experts: The Infatuation and Eater have both weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Vete-Katten Bak-Fickan comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Stockholm.

  1. This is a pastry-case cafe in Norrmalm where fika is treated as a daily obligation, with cardamom buns on the larger, sweeter, less spiced side. It's smaller than the other branches in this little Stockholm chain, but it suits a coffee before the shops on Gamla Brogatan. The princess cake arrives in full green-marzipan regalia, stacked high with raspberries and cream, and nobody makes eye contact while eating it.

  2. A working bakery in an industrial pocket south of the city that mostly supplies bread to restaurants, with a small cafe attached where the public gets to benefit from that arrangement. Lunch runs to fresh-baked bread, cookies, smörgåstårta, and a short list of sandwiches that moves between Swedish tradition and a muffuletta or a cantal with gribiche. The kind of spot where the product is serious because it was never really meant for you.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
