Sure, it's touristy. But this is the world's original city ice bar, built in Stockholm after the success of the ice hotel in Kiruna. Everything is carved from ice brought down from the frozen north, including your glass and tables, and vodka is the drink of choice. Admission price gets you warm booties, mittens, a parka and one vodka.

Had there been a Swedish version of Cheers, it would've been filmed here. Oil paintings, gilded mirrors and winter candlelight set the scene for a loveable cast of wizened regulars, corner-seat scribes and melancholy dames. Watch the show with a soothing öl (beer) and a serve of soulful husmanskost (homecooking).

Awarded 'Best Bar in Göteborg' and run by the team from Publik, this effortlessly cool hang-out pulls everyone from artists and media types to the odd punk rocker. Drinks are inspired (think kiwi and ginger daiquiri), the pick-and-mix menu brims with fusion flavours, and music spans soul, jazz and electro.

While the retro neon signage, dark tinted mirrors, dancing pole and cucumber cocktail might allude to a kinky disposition, this Vasastaden favourite was actually once a shoe shop. Studio 54-style films are projected onto a screen, which is easily upstaged by the hip young crowd, super-cool tunes (from retro to electro) and mighty red mojitos.
