👍 I was witness today 30.04. 11:50 of extremely brutal conversationsl between owner and employees who were mostly immigrants ( no one spoke Swedish) The owner was screaming at them, and we had to listen to his frustrations and aggressive behaviour . The service was good , and the coffee was excellent... People often mention beer, staff, nice,

    It is shabby, dark and strangely placed mirrors. 3 different beers on tap and loads of bottled beer. You come here for the atmosphere and the staff. I used to visit every day for at least a pint on my way back home from work. Well worth a visit but be warned, the interior is not to everyone taste

    We went to Embargo for an AW and got a very positive impression. The food was okay, the drinks were nice but the staff made the biggest difference. Very nice staff and especially Alec made the biggest difference. He was very sweet with us and the guests around us. My dog got water and snacks from him and he celebrated some guests birthday next to us and made it a very special experience for them. I hardly meet someone who walks the extra mile for guests the way he does. We really appreciated it and will come back soon 😊

    The best bar in Stockholm. Great staff, good music and a more than decent drinks selection - add to that the view of Bergsunds Strand and you can’t go wrong.

    Lovely cafe with simple, but tasty food. Great place to grab a bite before heading over to the Rio for a movie!

    The perfect combination of a bar and a café, with a really nice outdoor seating as well. The best staff ever, great drinks and food/cookies.

    Nice place to have a beer and conversation, even on a Friday night

    Great vibes

  • 3/5 Johan P. 1 year ago on Google
    This is more a corner pub/Bistro than cafe. Soggy Croassane and bland half-worm coffee. This is a place for an afternoon beer and wine and not coffee.

    Good selection of craft beer (really good). Very nice an knowledgeable staff

    One of the best places near Hornstull to have a beer, relax, and just be with friends. Why not try a new brew..

    Was here yesterday and was going to grab a beer. I gave my ID and they checked it and it was OK, then after he needed to comment on my looks(?) He said I look like 17 and he would never think I’m my age. (I’m 26) This was also in a rude tone and not as a joke, it made me sad and uncomfortable. Obviously didn’t stay, maybe next time skip commenting on other people’s looks. It’s not very nice, or your job ☺️

    It's a hidden pearl indeed! Very friendly personnel and big portions of delicious food. Cozy interior, nice view from the tables outside (just some guests are putting their legs at benches there which makes the others uncomfortable)

😠 Had heard good things about the place but was sadly disappointed. Waited 15 min for a menu and then 35 min for the food. I ordered the bearnaise 150g steak but as you can see that was never 150g, ridiculously small. Also the warmth was lacking. My company had the chicken burger and it was nearly col...
