Den Gyldene Freden

"This is one of the world’s oldest restaurants, operating at the same Old Town address since 1722. Quite recently, chef Filip Fastén from restaurant Agrikultur took over the ownership, which is reflected in the menu, still featuring classic dishes, but with increased focus on high-quality ingredients and smart presentations. For centuries, “Freden” has been the meeting place for famous authors, singers, and songwriters, and the original interior remains remarkably intact. Come for the atmosphere and traditional Swedish classics like pickled herring with Västerbotten cheese, cabbage and meat pie with caramelized whey, or the all-time-favorite dessert, hot rosehip soup with almond cake and ice cream.
