Güntherska

Top choice in Uppsala


An 1870 grande dame of a cafe that enjoys an exemplary position with terraced seating across from the river, and an elegant interior with regency-style wallpaper and chandeliers. The menu includes treats like hummus salad, and the sweet treats are in a league of their own, particularly the sticky buns. They also produce their own muesli, which is available for purchase.
