Hellasgården is a whole host of things: for families, solo travellers, or those just looking for a bit of calm within Stockholm city. Play boules, try your hand at mini golf, or take a hike around the lake and go for a dip. 

Food doesn't always have the power to make us speechless; the dishes served at Aira do. The tasting menu is more comparable to a journey than simply a series of course. Few words sum up just how good the food is, you'll just have to taste it to understand. 

This spot is one of those "if you know, you know." It's only open on a Sunday (or for its occasional supper clubs or pop-up events) so pop in for your end of weekend treat after a chilly dip by the Hammarbyskogen nature reserve. It doesn't get more cosy than that. And don't leave without tucking in to your fill of baked treats served with lashings of Swedish cream! 

Hidden in the parklands of Djurgården Island, this garden café is wonderful for lunch or a coffee. Visit the plant shop & the farm shop while you are here.
