Storstad

Vasastan


This attractive bistro near Odenplan, which shares a corner (and owners) with Olssons bar, serves Scandi classics like toast skagen or Swedish meatballs alongside traditional French favourites like moules frites and tarte Tatin. It transforms into a lively cocktail bar later in the evening.
