Stockholm's cocktail scene runs from the historic vaults of the old town to the louche rooms of Södermalm. Pharmarium on Stortorget in Gamla Stan, built on the site of an old apothecary, pours apothecary-themed drinks, while Tjoget out at Hornsbruksgatan in Hornstull anchors the contemporary end. Marie Laveau on Hornsgatan and the long-running jazz room Stampen on Stora Nygatan give the city its late-night spread.
