Arguably Göteborg’s coolest hang-out (think grit-chic interiors, local art exhibitions, DJ-spun tunes and creative indie crowds), this cafe-bar hybrid also serves brilliant, great-value grub like goat’s cheese–stuffed aubergines with red pesto potatoes. The well-priced house wine is perfectly drinkable and there’s a backyard courtyard for fine-weather lounging.

A mecca for coffee snobs, head here for wickedly fine espresso, moreish mini sfogliatelle (Neapolitan pastries) and savouries like real-deal pizzas, panini and salads. There’s a sun-soaked courtyard and a second branch on Viktoriapassagen.

A newish spot along the main drag, the Ruby is perpetually abuzz with diners and spectators; nestle into the 'red corner' for some tapas, or have a drink on the terrace and watch the human traffic go by. Food is served late.

Café Kosmos
One giant mass of tables (don't expect any privacy), this slick place attracts 20-something crowds. All the usual coffee 'n' café snacks are served up, although one feels the social scene is more important.
