With it's wooden panelled bar, tiled floor, Schmaltz is your typical bistro. Pickles, pâtes, charcuterie, cheeses, and smoked fish are put on a pedestal at this spot, and for all good reason. Share a few plates and naturally, a few glasses of the natural wine. All fance aside, the highlight for us has to be their grilled cheese broodjes come lunchtime: you'll have tasted nothing quite like it! 

This luxurious boutique hotel captures the essence of Stockholm. It's chic, remarkably comfortable, though ever-so homely. Boasting city views from every window, there really is no better place to wake up when in the city. 

A little taste of France within Östermalm: Chez Nolie's take on the French bistro scene is perfectly executed. Wooden panels, mirrored wall and white tablecloths make this spot a perfect place to cosy up for the evening. Dine on one of their dishes of the week, whether it's a steak minute, or omelette aux artichoke, bon appétit. 

Seeing as Stockholm is on the water, it's no surprise that there's a lot of great seafood in town. One of the best spots to indulge is Lisa Elmqvist, a restaurant tucked inside the Food Hall. With a bustling but low-key vibe, it's an ideal spot for lunch.
