Emma’s Café, Grill & Vinbar

Bohuslän


An obvious hub of local social life, Emma's occupies the red house right on the harbour and consists of a small, welcoming hostel (doubles from 700kr) above a cosy cafe-restaurant serving hearty dishes created from local (mostly fishy) and organic ingredients – anything from open shrimp sandwiches to exceptional fish soup.
