The finest wine bars in Stockholm

The wine café focuses primarily on small producers working as close to nature as possible, so Tyge & Sessil is an excellent choice if you want to try natural wines. They like to bring in wines from underrepresented areas around the world, preferably made from unusual grapes. The idea is to offer their guests genuine drinking pleasure and inspire them to discover new flavors. The small kitchen serves delicious entrees such as steak tartare, focaccia, and tortellini and also has a range of snacks to enjoy with the wine. No table reservations.

It’s run by the experienced sommeliers Anna Mellfors and Ola Arnkil, and they’ve really succeeded with their efforts. The venue is stylish and exudes class all the way with stylish wooden furniture, large windows, high ceilings, and a large inviting bar counter.

The wine list at Gemla Vinbar focuses entirely on craft wines grown in unsprayed vineyards where the winemakers work in harmony with nature and don’t use any unnecessary additives. The selection is impressive, and there’s something for every preference regarding white, red, orange, and sparkling wine. Both nerds and novices thrive in the cozy and relaxed environment, and many rank it as Stockholm’s best wine bar. A proof of the place’s popularity is that they’ve been named wine bar of the year 2021. In terms of food, they have focused on simple but delicious and wine-friendly. Several small dishes and small picks are available for those who are hungry.

The wine list is not the longest in Stockholm but created with care and ambition. It contains pretty much only Portuguese wines focusing on light and elegant style. So anyone who wants to immerse themselves in Portugal’s finest grape drinks will have a great evening at Cork Vinbar. And if you’re hungry, they serve tasty Mediterranean food that goes perfectly with the wine.

When it comes to food, Vinverket’s concept is to serve wine-friendly food with an emphasis on small dishes, entrees, cheese, and charcuterie. But the leading role is, of course, played by the wine list. It’s long, solid, and contains a wide range of wines from all over the world with different price points and primarily varieties you won’t find at Systembolaget. If you need help finding the right one, the friendly and wine-savvy staff will gladly guide you to new exciting flavors or a suitable wine if you have food.

Their wine selection is just as vibrant as the venue, and the focus is on small-scale and green production. Natural wines dominate the wine list, and the selection by the glass changes daily as new exciting additions are introduced. Perfect for those who like variety.

The bottled range contains over 500 natural wines, so if you like natural wines, you can really get your fill here. And don’t miss the chance to try their Swedish wines with cherry, plum, pear, blackcurrant, and apple flavors. They serve snacks, entrees, cheese, and small pastries if you want to eat something good with your noble drink. Savant Bar also gets an extra big plus for their ambitious sustainability work.

Half a floor down on Roslagsgatan, you’ll find Vineriet, run by Antoni Dauoud that has a great passion for food and wine. In the modern and nicely decorated room with blue sofas, wooden furniture, wooden floors, and fine art, you can enjoy wines from all over the world and food prepared with love. Whether you want to have an after-work with your friends, a dinner with the whole family, or a cozy date with your partner, you’ll feel at home at Vineriet.

Antoni’s interest in wine started when he got to try wines from Italy, and his passion for wine is evident in the ambitious wine list in which he has invested a lot of love. It mainly contains Italian wines, and if you’re a fan of red wines from the Piedmont and Tuscany regions, you’ll be thrilled.

For those who want to eat something tasty, there’s a delightful selection. How about cheeses like Brillat Savarin and Hallands Himmel or charcuterie like fennel salami and Prosciutto Toscano? In addition, there are several other wine-friendly snacks on the menu. In summer, Vineriet also has a nice bistro-style outdoor terrace where you can watch the street life while enjoying your favorite wine.

The wine list is constantly changing and is based on small quantities, with the owners having a preference for fun bottles. The selection includes many natural wines and plenty of bubbly. Alba Vinbar is also a great place to go if someone in your party is not fond of wine since they also offer cider, beer, and non-alcoholic drinks. For food, there’s a simple French-Italian menu. In the summer, Alba Vinbar takes it up a level with its spacious outdoor terrace, an excellent vantage point packed with people from afternoon to late evening.

The impressive wine list is both broad and deep, with a wide range of French wines where you can delve into the classic districts of perhaps the world’s top wine country. If you need help finding the right one, the knowledgeable staff are happy to help. And if you want something to eat, they serve charcuterie, cheeses, mushroom croquettes, and oysters.

In the warmer season, you can sit down in Le Garden when the bistro moves outdoors, creating a lovely summer oasis for eating and drinking. In addition, The Sparrow Vinbar has a nice outdoor terrace where you can feel the pulse of Stureplan while sipping a glass of rosé wine in the summer sun.

The wine list includes not only orange wines but also many other types of wines, many of which have a natural focus. You can also order beer and spirits. And because orange wine goes perfectly with Asian food, Ambar’s simple yet delicious menu consists of Japanese home cooking and modern bar dishes with more unusual flavors. Crispy tofu with blue cheese and honey, fried eggplant marinated in soy and ginger, and steamed dumplings with soy meat are some of the dishes that’ll make your taste buds dance.
