Golden Hits

Golden Hits is a true classic among restaurants with entertainment in Stockholm. And if you want to experience a fantastic dinner show, this is one of the greatest places to be. They describe their dinner club as a crazy dinner party, Sweden’s funniest, so the bar is set high. Here, people of all ages meet and have a good time together, so bring friends, family, or work colleagues for an evening filled with fabulous shows, music, dance, and joy in the middle of central Stockholm. Whether it’s a birthday, an event with work, or just a regular Friday night, Golden Hits delivers an unbeatable mix of craziness, humor, and warmth. And certainly, a lot of spontaneous dancing.

M/S Vindhem

Tacos feast at M/S Vindhem

Fancy a dinner with entertainment in Stockholm and at the same time a wonderful boat trip in the world’s most beautiful archipelago? Then the music boat M/S Vindhem is exactly what you need. Here, they’ve been serving food in combination with entertainment at sea since 1987 – a concept that has resonated well with both Stockholmers and tourists. Popular, festive, and full-packed, as they describe it themselves.

At M/S Vindhem, it’s always shrimp time. And considering that they’ve offered seafood cruises for several decades, you can be sure that they deliver a wonderful food and music experience, including unbeatable views. Unlimited shrimp (alternative tacos), freshly baked bread, butter, and aioli. For dessert, a well-filled cheese platter. What more could you ask for? And, of course, there are also options if you’re vegetarian, vegan, or allergic (let them know in advance). Festive cover bands deliver the entertainment, and you can enjoy hit song after hit song from the rock and pop genres, and the tempo then increases more and more during the evening. So resisting the dance floor will not be easy… In December, you shouldn’t miss M/S Vindhem’s popular Christmas buffet cruise with classic Christmas food favorites and troubadours.

Norra Brunn

If you want to combine good food and drink with a comedy club, you should head to Norra Brunn, Sweden’s most famous stand-up comedy restaurant and filming location for Swedish TV’s humor show ‘Släng dig I brunnen.’ Here, Sweden’s biggest and best stand-up comedians perform after dinner. And to finish eating before they start is a must – otherwise, it would be impossible to get a bite between the laughter… Showtime is 8 pm Tuesday to Saturday, and note that the restaurant has an entrance fee.

The menu has something for all tastes – from ‘Wallenbergare’ and salmon fillet to vegetarian tortellini and vegan chili. And, of course, there’s a wide range of tasty starters and desserts if you’re extra hungry. Why not go for the popular three-course show menu and add a drink package with beer, wine, coffee, and an after-dinner drink. A good laugh and a good meal – a hard-to-beat combination that makes Norra Brunn one of Stockholm’s best dinner show restaurants.

Lasse i Gatan

A pirate restaurant in Old Town? Sure, why not? At least if it’s as festive as Lasse i Gatan. From Västerlånggatan, you take the stairs down to the restaurant’s beautiful and ancient vaults, where you travel back in time to the 18th century. Here they do a grand-scale celebration of Lars Gathenhielm (who was called Lasse i Gatan) and his wife Ingela’s unlikely successes as hijackers at sea. Good food with a piece of Swedish history to sum it all up. Behind the restaurant’s concept is the Swedish artist Martin’ E-Type’ Erikson, who also founded the nearby Viking restaurant Aifur.

This restaurant and bar with a pirate theme offers, to say the least, a different dining experience – from the room’s decorations and table setting to the live music. In addition, both staff and regulars have contemporary clothing so that everyone get the authentic feeling of being part of the hijacker couple’s crew. The food is not as 18th century-inspired but consists of more contemporary dishes such as charcuterie tray, Toast Skagen, char fillet, steak, cheeseburger, and risotto. The drinks menu has everything you need – sparkling, champagne, red wines, white wines, beer, rum, and non-alcoholic.
