Intimate, sophisticated yet relaxed, Gaston is where clued-in Stockholmers swill in Gamla Stan. Sommelier Janni Berndt's weakness for hand-harvested wines and smaller winemakers with fascinating backstories translates into an exciting, ever-changing wine list that might include a Suertes del Marqués from Tenerife or a biodynamic Vie on y Est from the Côtes du Rhône.
Gaston is owned by Michelin-starred power chef Björn Frantzén, whose next-door pub, Flying Elk, supplies the bar's hearty food offerings.
