Grillska Husets Konditori

Gamla Stan


The cafe and bakery run by Stockholms Stadsmission, a chain of secondhand charity shops, is an excellent spot for a sweet treat or a traditional shrimp sandwich, especially when warm weather allows for seating at the outdoor tables in Gamla Stan’s main square. There's a bakery shop attached, selling goodies and rustic breads to take away.
