Set among the greenhouses of a pretty botanical garden, Rosendals is an idyllic spot for
heavenly pastries and coffee or a meal and a glass of organic wine. Lunch includes a brief
menu of eco-friendly soups, sandwiches (such as ground-lamb burger with chanterelles)
and gorgeous salads. Much of the produce is biodynamic and grown on site.
The next-door bakery and shop sells everything from preserved lemons and freshly
baked bread to Rosendals' very own cookbook. Follow signs from Djurgårdsbron; it's
about a 15-minute walk. Closed in January and on Midsummer weekend.

Blissful on sunny days, when you can linger over lunch or
fika
in a garden reminiscent of a
Monet painting, this cafe next to Liljevalchs Konsthall boasts an obscenely tempting dis-
play of baked goods, as well as lip-smacking Scandi and global meals. Mercifully, many of
Djurgården's museums are within rolling distance.

Named after one of Carl Michael Bellman's lovers, this villa was built as a steam bakery
for the Stockholm World's Fair (1897) and now serves fine food in intimate rooms and a
blissful garden setting. Sup on skilfully prepared upscale versions of traditional Scandi fa-
vourites, mostly built around fish and potatoes; try the herring plate with homemade crisp-
bread.
Roxette fans should ask the staff to point out the artwork of singer Marie Fredriksson.
Book ahead in summer.
