Café Pascal

The location is strategic and easy to find. Very nice,cozy and comfortable ambience. And always crowded by customers. The staff is nice and friendly. Bread and coffee are so good and delicious. Highly recommend for coffee time. High

Oh my dear Pascal...where should I start from? I have been living for three wonderful years in the lovely Stockholm. For some people, getting to know where the closest supermarket is, the best school for their children or the local emergency numbers, are settling priorities. For me they are too, but I have some mental disorder which places specialty coffee places in top of that list. That is how I got to Pascal first. I needed to build my specialty coffee safety network here and then this place became prominent in the city map. I think I will never forget the jaw dropping feeling that very first time I faced the tempting pastries showcase. While recovering from that, I continued only to get shocked by the range of coffees in the menu. I have always loved that concept of house blend + guest roaster/special own roasted coffee available for espresso. Along these years, I have been lucky enough to get coffees served here from many different Baristas. For me, they are superstars; each one with their personal style, all of them brewing nothing but vibrant cups. In the sweet or savoury ends of the spectrum, I have tried only exceptional options. From the exciting seasonal viennesse pastries to the decadent iconic egg - ham croissant (could you please export this one worldwide?). The service is always as busy as it can get here, but never saving in smiles and kindness to their customers. I had some special request along the way, and always felt welcomed and accommodated as well as possible. Visiting in bright summer mornings, cold harsh evenings, celebrating moments or exhausting weekdays, I have always came out with a warm feeling. Therefore, more than a review, this is just a huge thank you for your daily work. Two things are out of the discussion for me: I will keep always Pascal as my comparative reference to rate coffee shops worldwide, and I will stop here first whenever I can enjoy Stockholm again.

Please, stop what you are doing, come here, & order the Tiramisu pastry. This was the best pastry that I have EVER tasted. Hands down, bar none, this was the best. Went to the other location our first weekend in Stockholm, on a whim. Ordered coffees, with the rueben, chia pudding bowl, & the pastry. Nothing disappointed. Everything was so good we had to return our second weekend in Stockholm to get another sweet treat. Outstanding!

There are freshly roasted single origin coffee beans of Arabic a variety from different regions. I tried v60 pour over coffee but one can also find cookies and fika options at this place. The atmosphere is calm and cozy but unfortunately it is hard to find a seat.

I love this café so much. Everything about it is perfect. The pastries are amazing, their pistachio and tiramisu croissants are heavenly. I have never tried houjicha latte before, but if you like matcha, you’ll definitely become a houjicha lover. Their coffee is just as incredible, the barista poured a beautiful latte art into each cup despite the rush they can have. A longer queue can form, but they are really fast with everything, and still maintain good quality. The tables are clean at all times, all the staff are friendly and helpful, and the place is very spacious so you can have a nice brunch break with friends or family. Definitely a place to come back to.

Nice food, space and atmosphere. It can get very packed on Sunday though. I really like hojicha latte. It is strong and the taste of hojicha wasn’t taken over by milk.

I came here for my first ever fika in Stockholm and wow it did not disappoint! The cinnamon bun was amazing, I’ve never tasted anything so delicious. The food here looked amazing, I really regret not getting a meal here. I was also really happy to see a flat white on the menu, it can be difficult to find them outside of the UK!

Such a cute cafe in the neighborhood! It’s also a great spot for remote workers — and there were plenty of them. The coffee was good, and the granola and sandwich were delicious!

Very cute cafe with delicious looking sandwiches. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and large coffee and drink menu. The service was quick and pleasant, our to go drinks pit stop took us about 5 min to order and grab to get us back on our way sightseeing!

Delicious coffees, pastries, and what looked like yummy food. Lovely setting with indoor and outdoor seating. We didn't try the actual food but every single dish that passed us from salads to sandwiches to salmon all looked incredibly fresh, generous quantity, and delicious. Staff is very friendly as well.

Another amazing place to partake in fika in Stockholm. Had an amazing flat white here, probably one of the best while I was in Sweden. The day I was there, they were brewing Sey Coffee (shout out Brooklyn!). Pastries were good - but not going to lie, every single cardamom bun I had during my visit to Sweden was absolutely delicious. Friendly baristas. Does get crowded at times and getting a table can be a bit of a challenge. Overall, one of my favorite coffee shops I got to try in the city!

Amazing cafe to visit while in Stockholm. A little hard to grab seats, but just be patient and keep an eye out and there will bound to be an opening. Had an amazing latte here and semla (not too sweet!) Great vibes, great ambience, great drinks/pastries. Will return if ever back in the area.

While visiting Stockholm, I ate at so many cafes. However, one cafe took home my heart and it was Cafe Pascal. Small, intimate, and cozy. It has the best vibes for a cold, gray Stockholm day. As soon as you walk in, you are met with the sweet smell of coffee and buns. We came here for breakfast and ordered the croissant sandwich that comes with an egg salad inside and your choice of either cheese or serrano ham. This sandwich is so simple in its ingredients but the flavors blew me away. One of the best sandwiches I have eaten in my life. The egg salad was chef's kiss. I also tried their cinnamon bun, and it was so sweet and gooey. I loved this cafe. I highly recommend it!

We came here to get a quick lunch before continuing our day. It was sort of busy, but I got a quick light croissant sandwich. Those who believe that croissants should be solo, without anything in them, I get it... but, croissant sandwiches are the best to me. Now the croissant. It came with ham and egg salad. It was very good! The croissant was flaky, the filling itself was savory and I devoured that sandwich. You can just go up and get your own water, but know that it's just very limited seating as it it's set up as a to go place or a place to just sit eat lunch and go. If you're looking for that, this place is a solid choice.

Great neighborhood coffee shop with delicious pastries and salads. The laxsallad is perfect! It has such great flavors and textures and makes the best lunch. I have also tried the pistachio croissant and the vegan raspberry bun and they were both great. I love that they have some outdoor seating to soak up the sun on a warm day. Love this cafe!

Delicious food and coffee. Seems like a place for locals, not too touristy. I had the pistachio roll and coffee. Loved it!!

Best breakfast croissant sandwich I've ever had. And that's not the 9 hour jet lag talking. They were out of cold brew but I got a great iced americano. Nice little hipster coffee shop that I will definitely try again.

Cafe Pascal is located in beautiful Odenplan. The view from the restaurant is almost picturesque. The food is also very aesthetically pleasing- the taste however, was not great. I got the salmon salad, and was in all disappointed. The veggies had the consistency of rubber. You could tell that it was not very fresh. The salmon was the same way. You could tell it had been refrigerated for a long time, with the color of the salmon straying away from its tint of pink. The lentils with the salad sound nice, but actually taste otherwise. It did not mesh with the salad at all, and took off from the flavor (the small portion that was there) of the salmon. The service was great- the staff was very polite and helpful with translating the menu. In addition to food, we had gotten coffee as well. The coffee was standard as is what cafe pascal should be known for. In the back of my mind, I keep thinking "man, cafe pascal is just a glorified Panera bread." But it is a little more than that. While the food is ok, the coffee selection is good, the staff is wonderful, and the view wraps it all up nicely. If you are visiting Stockholm, stick to the coffee and tea.

I was staying nearby and decided to check this place out for breakfast. It's located somewhere by Odenplan and it's a pretty cute and trendy place. The staff were very nice and friendly, and answered all the questions I had about the menu. I am by no means a coffee connoisseur, so I can't really say what's good or bad coffee. I just add sweetener and milk/cream to coffee (forgive me all you coffee lovers). The coffee here was good enough for me! I have to say that I really loved the pastries I had here. Even compared to other cafes I visited while in Stockholm, everything I tried was so good. I tried both the cardamon and cinnamon buns as they've been mentioned in other reviews here I read. They were both fresh and had a nice mix of sweetness and spice (not like hot spice.) I don't think I've tasted cardamon in anything (that I know of) so it was pretty interesting. I kind of liked the cinnamon bun better, but I am a fan of sweets and it was sweeter. I came a couple more times and I've also tried a berry crumble they had that I really really enjoyed. It had some like meringue on top with mixed berries and a crust on the bottom, and it was just such a nice balance of sweetness and tartness. I decided to write this review because I've been craving it.

I read all the great reviews and decided to trek all the way out here from östermalm. Initial impressions was that this place is very crowded and I will try to beat the lunch crowd next time. I had a smoked salmon salad and the salad was amazing; the staff are ok, not very friendly but the guy that helped me at the cashier was very helpful so I appreciate that. If you come here during the lunch crowd expect to share a table with few others and it gets a bit loud as well so I recommend coming after lunch time and you're planning to meet someone here or to have a nice coffee and conversation.

Located just up the way from Kafé Esaias it was at Café Pascal that five additional Fika were ordered on Thursday morning, everything about the experience a 180 change as the space was humming with activity while servers seemed downright joyous whether brewing Coffee or plating Pastries. Occupying a cozy corner at Norrtullsgatan 4, Odenplan Station and a sizable Park generating plenty of foot traffic even on a weekday, guests entering Café Pascal will likely be met by a small line amidst the spacious interior, items continuously coming out from the kitchen to replenish those in short supply and suggesting early is a good time arrive as one might find themselves purchasing something still warm from the oven. Not quite as traditional as many of Stockholm's more storied spaces, everything from Croissants to Avocado Toast joining items such as Kardemumma Bulle, it was based only on the fact that two types of Croissant had just been placed on racks that dining began with one of each, the sliced and filled one with Custard and Berries decent but already compromised by sogginess while the Chocolate Almond version was warm and wondrous thanks to a shattering shell, thick and gooey Filling plus excellent lamination. Moving onward to a squared-off Cinnamon Roll, the coil softening as it unraveled to reveal layers of Cinnamon and Butter until it reached a puffy center, it was on similar Dough cut from a pan that Café Pascal's Toscabulle was upgraded by plenty of Nuts and caramelized Sugar while the Kardemumma Bulle some call Stockholm's best was a little too "Dinner Roll" in terms of texture when compared to the likes of Magnus Johansson or Åsö Konditori.

Breakfast here was wonderful! We enjoyed all of our buns: pistachio croissant, egg salad in a croissant, cinnamon bun, and a bun with cream inside (sollebulle?). All delicious and lovely cafe atmosphere with comfortable seating. Each bun was light but delicious with hints of spices to balance out the sweetness in a refreshing way.

This is a nice, hipster coffee shop with delicious baked goods, excellent coffee/lattes, and a friendly waitstaff. Oh yeah, and they're open early! I tried the cardamom bun that everyone mentioned (and let's be real -- you can't go to stockholm without trying one), which is a delicious twist on a cinnamon roll (without the frosting and over-sweetness) and it was soft, warm, and delicious. Latte was nicely made and the waitstaff delivered quickly. Overall, it was a bit on the pricier side, but standard for Stockholm. Worth a stop if you're looking for a quick breakfast!

For bfast, we ordered a lot!! Place was very cozy and cute. Staff were amazing and the food was great! We left really happy and full. Def recommend this place..

Fika, what a beautiful concept ingrained into Swedish culture! A mandatory coffee break to slow down and appreciate daily life. With a cute interior, good coffee, and a heart-eye inducing selection of pastries, Pascal is a great place to practice fika. I had the croissant with egg salad & proscuitto because it seemed like everyone ahead of me in line was getting it - managed to grab the 2nd to last one! Though seemingly simple, this item was really flavorful & delicious. My friend had the avocado toast with a 63 degree egg. The bread was very hearty - will definitely get your insides to work with all that grain/fiber! LOL. The drip coffee here was great and the baristas didn't judge us too much for going back up for a 2nd and 3rd cup :P Lots of seating available inside, including a large communal table. Seemed like most of the people in here were locals which is always a good sign!

Very popular spot for breakfast on the weekends. There were hardly any seats! We got two sandwiches and a cinnamon bun to share. Sandwiches were small but fresh and tasty, and the cinnamon bun was also delectable, but I think I prefer Fabrique's. If not crowded, there's lots of seating and a clean bathroom.

I think Pascal is an all around good cafe. I wouldn't say that they have a particular specialty but the coffee, interior, atmosphere, sweets and food are all really good. You could easily have a good fika time here. I very rarely eat anything when I visit a cafe, but I've previously tried the soups at Pascal and they also have gluten free bread to make sandwiches with. It is a popular cafe though so it is crowded more or less all the time. You might have to compromise a bit and sit down at the corner of a table and the noise level inside might me a bit loud. This is sort of typical for good cafes in Stockholm. In the summer they also have outside seating along the walls of the cafe, because it is located on a calm street it could be a good option to try out.

I've been to Pascal very frequently over the last years, always enjoying the atmosphere and previously delicious coffee and hot chocolate. Yesterday I left a bit over 100kr for a tiny pastry and possibly the worst excuse for coffee I've experienced since a roadside stop in the sticks. I was with a wannabee hipster who raved about V60, and as it served 2 we chose that coffee option. It looked like tea and tasted (even after attempts to detect those mysterious over/under tones and aromas) like water poured over twiced-used coffee grinds. Had I been alone I'd definitely have returned and asked for something else, like tea (since it looked like that) but I "read" the embarrassment factor on the face of my table companion and let him have it all. I suspect the guy who did the high-tech coffee made a mistake (possibly on the amount of ground beans) but wasn't going to own up - better to make me look like the simpleton. Not sure I'll go back here, I've experienced Pascal in better times

Embracing what it is to "fika" in sweden, we stopped by Pascal for a drink and small breakfast. We got a ham and cheese on a croissant a latte and a hot chocolate (of course). I really liked the interior of this spot. I felt like I was a hip LA coffee shop; even the staff felt like they could be transported to LA and fit right in with the crowd. The menu was rather small, and something we noticed in Sweden was that they don't offer lots of flavored drinks (vanilla latte, hazelnut, etc). Despite this, our drinks were yummy and the sandwich was great too! The croissant was a little simple but I can appreciate the freshness of the ingredients. My beverage, the hot chocolate, was the 2nd best hot chocolate I had in my journey. If you live in the area of Odenplan this is definitely not a bad spot to stop and enjoy some coffee culture or just a chat with a good friend.

I'm not sure if they got this good rating just out of luck or their lunch guests cause their breakfast is nothing more than a very average breakfast anyone could get in their neighborhood. The menu lacks fantasy big time. It's very limited & nothing remarkable. In fact we had a hard time finding something appealing but since we were hungry and it was raining cats & dogs outside, we decided to order anyway. The chia pudding was ok but their mushroom sandwich was so greasy that gave me stomachache right on spot. It was so much cheese in it that has taken over any other taste or flavor. It was more like a crispy cheap pizza. The side on the sandwich could also use some imagination. And it was overpriced for what you get.

It really shows that the passionate siblings have spent time and love in the development of this café, which today is one of Stockholm's finest in my opinion. The café serves simple, but well-prepared dishes such as salads, sandwiches, soups and wonderful pastries in a trendy environment. Excellent spot for a delightful breakfast, a good lunch or just a great cup of speciality coffee. The café is also a popular spot to get work done while sipping on a good brew.

I started coming here with a friend about two months ago... I am normally not that fond of crowded placed but Pascal has a nice outdoor sitting... I like their variety but, like in many stockholm places, things are prepared before, even sandwishes... I can't eat peppers so that will always limit my options... They have this scrambled eggs in croissant... That is gooooood! I have tried their latte, cappuccino and macchiato... All of them are good!

We went out of our way to eat breakfast at Cafe Pascal as a result of the reviews on Yelp - it didn't disappoint. We arrived about 11AM on a Saturday and the place was pretty full, but we managed some seats near the window. The atmosphere was very chilled and the coffee and pastries were excellent - would recommend a cortado with an almond croissant. Fantastic and will definitely be back if I'm back in Stockholm!

Moderately priced, cute, centrally located cafe with nice and friendly staff and fresh, tasty food. Went with a group of four and we all ordered different salads off menu. What we received was generously portioned colorful and flavorful eats. Paired with a cappuccino and a butter croissant, the meal was the perfect lunch. The atmosphere is casual, hip and the space is bright and airy.

Loved our breakfast here. Delicious baked goods, pudding and coffee AND friendly service.

Great for a small breakfast. Got myself a ham bagel, orange juice and a cappuccino. So delicious. All of it! Also, there are some seats available outside.

Great lunchspot! For a quick lunch during work, lunch with friends and babies, but also for hungry tourists like us. Great salads, suppa, but also big manly sandwiches. I recommend the Rueben Sandwich for big guys with an appetite

On a side street close to Odenplan this great cafe has opened. It is a nice big space with plenty of seats inside and also a few tables outside. Only open for around 5 weeks but already hugely popular and I can understand why. First things first - they do great coffee! The selection is of small micro roasters is excellent - they always have different varieties from Love Coffee from Lund and DaMatteo from Gothenburg and a few other small guest roasters (when i was there 360 from UK, Johan&Nyström and DropCoffee both from Stockholm). Coffee is either made on the espresso machine (a La Marzocco) or the brew station. The staff are knowledgeable and happy to chat about the coffee and make a great cup. The only thing to consider is that I saw some of the bags being left open and coffee does not get better from exposure to air. There is a nice counter with very delicious looking pastries and sandwiches. I did not try any of the pastries but the sandwiches were great. They also offer some hot dishes (soups, steak sandwiches, toasties and pancakes) as well as salads. It is apparent that the owners (three siblings) have a sense of quality when it comes to everything so the juices and other beverages were great as well. Open 7 days a week so this is a place I will start to frequent. To make things better the service was friendly and fast (despite the place being packed)!

Not worth fighting the crowd in the super hot cafe just for an expensive, dried out pastry and facing overwhelmed staff.

I have been to Stockholm A LOT - I have visited Pascal A LOT - yet I still haven't sumbitted a review of this place. This is truly a special place and one of my absolute favourites in the Swedish capital. The space is beautifully designed. A beautiful space often reflects the ambitions in the kitchen. This isn't gourmet in its purest form. Instead think salads, cakes, sandwiches and coffee - lots of coffee. This is a coffee place first and foremost, so they do take their coffee beans serious here. I have had multiple dishes here too. Their kanelbulle is good. A bit compact, not that sweet and greasy - yet still good. I have to mention their salads which, I think, is the star of the menu. Caesar salad is pretty good, but try the one with smoked salmon. It is absolutely fantastic. Creamy, crunchy, fresh - SO good. Only downside? There are often a good crowd of people, but nothing painful. It creates the atmosphere of Café Pascal. A very special atmosphere.

Loved this place. The coffee and the food had excellent quality, everything I ordered was delicious. The staff was super friendly, they took my order in English and made sure I got exactly what I ordered. The place is super cozy and it is excellent for breakfast, lunch or fika.

I got to Pascal at about 7:30 am and it was already bustling. There were people working on laptops as well as people meeting with friends and business partners. I ordered the croissant with prosciutto, egg, and chives as well as the green smoothie. It was around $10 USD which is reasonable by Stockholm's standards. The croissant was simple yet tasty but it didn't "wow" me. It did a surprisingly good job filling me up. The cold pressed juice I believe is made in-house. I got the green juice which has some vegetables, pineapple, and apple... I think. It was small and a little sweet for my taste when I'm getting green juice but I was still satisfied. I was pleased that the cafe had free wifi and was in such a central location. The cafe itself is cozy and friendly. If I lived here in Stockholm and had the salary to afford it, I could see myself being a regular at this spot.

Cosy environment but a bit small space. We sat next to the WC and the door to the WC always hit a chair or a table. The staff was also a bit stressful.

Finally a cinnamon I liked best cardamom bun ever! Service was great staff is so friendly

First stop in Stockholm after a long night of traveling and well worth it! Some will think the latte and cappuccino is served a bit cold but for me it's perfection. The ham egg and cheese croissant, amazing. And the poppyseed caramel pastry is superb!

Oh no... Mellqvist, Brunkebergs, Gateau - still love you but I now have a new favorite breakfast place in town - Pascal! Everything about this place is: Quality. The Avocado on bye bread sprinkled with sea salt and sesame seeds - genius. The Rueben sandwich - the first authentic Rueben I've had outside the states that made me happy and friends - delicious - perfect! The lattes - brilliant coffee - poured with love. We even tried their hand brew - selected a fruity bean - a bit weak for my taste but man - the process of making authentic hand brew coffee - these guys are not messing around - their pros and the chemical lab experience of that coffee proves that point. Loved their cardamom buns! Sat there half a day catching up and doing some work, wonderful experience. Yes, the price is marked up but just go there and you'll see why.

I want to go here every time I walk by. I like that it's just a little off the main drag and it seems so inviting from the outside. I surprisingly didn't find it that nice or special otherwise, though. It's super crowded, which is okay, but not the atmosphere and feeling I had imagined from the outside. The food is good but seems like your average Stockholm stuff, more or less the same quality and imagination as most other places you go that other taking a stab at the chic and trendy. I like that they serve tea in a mini-coffee pot. The atmosphere is not that cozy inside, which for me a good cafe MUST be. There are plenty of places that are busy and are still cozy. Maybe it was me. I guess it probably deserves another perspective considering how much other people love it but in my opinion I can think of probably 300 other cafes in Stockholm I would rather check out before coming back here.

Really top notch service, and they are hiding a Michelin starred pastry chef off site that makes all the baked goods. Coffee and pastries were some of the best we have had, and as a bonus they were super friendly to my kids. Love this place.

Great coffee, deserts and food, friendly service and nice environment! A cafe for both going with others or even yourself for working or reading. Plus located in one of the best areas of Stockholm. Definitely going back there next time I'm in the city!

The service was impeccable! My wife and 3yearbold loved every bit of our experience! We will be back!

Although this place was on the pricier side, the portions were large and the quality was amazing. I had a coffee and halloumi salad, while my friend had a non-dairy latte and salmon salad. The decor was modern and super cozy. The demographics included young mothers and professionals as well as students who studied there. I would definitely come back for the salad!

I always pass by this place and every time I pass it it is crowded. Yesterday, we took the initiative and actually went inside to have fika. OMG it is so nice. I ordered tea because I already ate but what they offered to eat looked also delicious. Well I am sure gonna be in here for food next time. And they had Thonet chairs everywhere. Ahh! I was about to take one and run away haha ... no not really but I love those chairs.

Great breakfast, I had the weekend omelet. Amazing, one of the best fried eggs I ever had. Additionally I had a coffee which was great as well. The personal is really friendly and the clientele as well. Good spot to be, especially for a weekend breakfast.

The perfect coffee spot in this part of Stockholm! Just amazing coffee beans mostly from different swedish micro roasters. The guys who runs the place are good skilled baristas and I'd say thumbs up for the espresso type coffees such cortado and flat white and especially for the drip coffee brewed on the V60! The food menu has some delicious as well. Go here if you want a serious treat from someone who knows how to brew a good cup of coffee!

Wonderfully charming cafe with delicious food and kind staff. We liked it so much during our visit to Stockholm we returned for breakfast two days in a row. Coffee is good, but the cups are small. Must get: The reuben. It is SO good. Order it. Pascal also makes their own smoothies to go - highly recommend.

Best coffee place in town! Great sandwiches, pastries, salads and soups. Very nice atmosphere with super friendly staff!

Best cafe with a view of the most beautiful children's park. Sandwiches are excellent, I had salami. Very calm tranquil spotless experience. I think it's my favorite cafe in the world so far.
