Mälarpaviljongen

Green oasis with a jovial vibe

The best place in Stockholm to catch a summer sunset is without a doubt this floating, open-air cafe-bar on the striking Norr Mälarstrand waterfront. Its romantic gardens and convivial, gay-friendly atmosphere draw a high-spirited clique who swill wine and nibble organic sandwiches until the wee hours of the morning. Quirky entertainment options include an annual hat parade, drag shows and Sunday jazz sessions. Open only from April to September each year.
