Sommelier Oskar Ahlvin's Bar La Lune channels a Parisian wine bistro, with natural wines by the glass and small plates built on French technique and Scandinavian produce. Sister bar Angeli sits directly next door.
Sweden's first urban winery operates out of the Slakthuset area in east Gothenburg. The restaurant produces its own wines from European grapes and pairs them with creative seasonal food supervised by a team of in-house sommeliers.
A family-run room in Lorensberg with walls covered in curated art and a wine list focused entirely on natural and organic European producers. The kitchen follows the seasons with discipline; the menu shrinks in winter and blooms in summer.
Andrea Consonni and Nina Rydqvist serve northern Italian cooking at La Strega, a Michelin Guide-listed trattoria in Vasastaden. The menu changes daily, the ingredients are seasonal and local, and the natural wine list rewards repeat visits.
Poppy on Fjarde Langgatan serves daily set menus in a relaxed Linne setting. Haddock with mussel sauce and beef tartare are regulars; the room has the unhurried rhythm of a good neighbourhood bistro rather than a destination restaurant.
