Elevated dinner with good vegan choices in Stockholm

I came here a little while ago with a group of friends for dinner. There’s certainly plenty of choice for vegans on the dinner menu and all dishes are beautifully plated. I had some dumplings to start with, followed by the stir-fried vegan prawns with pak choi and wild abalone, and the fried banana with almonds, fruit, vegan vanilla ice cream, and syrup. The food tasted as great as it looked and I enjoyed the dinner. The restaurant is very big and it was busy, so service was a bit patchy at times. Overall, though, I highly recommend Waipo for an elevated dinner with good vegan choices.

Is this Europe's best vegan bakery?

This is a ridiculously fine place. I’m not even a fan of sweet breakfast dishes and yet, I could have eaten everything here several times over. I’m sure even the tables would taste great. I feel that it doesn’t matter what you order here, because everything is super tasty.

Outstanding Vegan Pizza

There’s a reason this place ranks so highly on HappyCow. Great pizza, friendly service, and a restaurant with a story & a mission. I had the Gorgolosa di Montagna with gorgonzola and porcini mushrooms. This used to be my favourite pizza topping, before turning vegan, but I never found a vegan version until coming here. This pizza is worth traveling to Milan for!

Super solid

While sightseeing in Copenhagen, I had a burger-shaped hole in my stomach, so naturally I had to stop here to sample one of the vegan burgers. All patties house-made, don’t ya know. Sadly, the regular patty was already sold out, but Robin had put together a replacement, which, I’m sure, tasted just as fine. It’s a tiny joint with super tasty ice tea and a free Mortal Combat machine - gives you something to do while waiting for the food (not that it was a long wait). The Roots-n-Green Burger was super tasty as were the fries. Highly recommended for a centrally located burger stop in Copenhagen.

Bärta - Bitar Chili & Lime

Great product to work with and tastes great. These are very versatile and work well in stews or casseroles, but also on their own on skewers or as a snack. Would totally buy these again.

Surprise airport find...

A dark gray plate on a light wood surface. On the plate, bottom right, is a small red raddish, which has been carved to resemble a flower. Top center and left are two potato cakes. One is sitting on a small pile of green guacomole, the other one on a pile of red tomato relish. There are several green salad leafs, a small red cherry tomato, and a slice of cucumber visible, too.
The Vegan Breakfast


I had dinner in the city centre branch of the StäV a few days ago and it was okay. Then I found it at the airport when I was looking for breakfast. They have a vegan breakfast that’s super tasty, freshly made, and, for an airport anyway, keenly priced. I liked it a lot. Probably one of the best vegan airport breakfasts I had so far.
They also have other clearly labeled vegan dishes.

Solid Vegan Fry-Up in Stockholm

A breakfast plate with a metal tub of margerine on the top left, a pile of yellow tofu scramble at the bottom, a vegan sausage on the left of the plate, a metal tub of baked beans in the centre of the plate. Above it, a potato roesti, and next to it some grilled tomatoes. Below on the right are two slices of bread.
The Fully Vegan Breakfast

If you’re in Stockholm and craving a good old fry up, Greasy Spoon’s version hits the spot and contains all the necessities: The right baked beans, a good sausage, nice tofu scramble, fresh mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, and a few slices of good bread. They even have brown sauce, the only correct condiment for a good fry-up, though they call it by its poncy name, HP sauce.
The place is laid back enough, service is good, and the toilets are clean. What else do you want? Gets busy, so use the digital wait-list function on their website.

The Holy Grail of vegan Bavarian Food

Outstanding vegan Bavarian food. Everything we had was perfectly executed and tasted delicious. It’s been a long time I enjoyed a restaurant as much as Bodhi.
We had the Buffalo Wings to start with, then the Bodhi Pfanderl and the Enten Braten. We finished with the Mousse au Chocolat. The latter was just divine.
The portions are a good size, service is swift and friendly. There’s really no reason not to go here frequently. It’s probably a good idea to book in advance. The joint was packed when we arrived and without a booking we would have had to wait.

Massive Pizzas. Fair Prices.

Possibly the biggest pizza I’ve ever received in a restaurant! Easily enough to share for two people. For less than 14 EUR also very keenly priced, particularly given the city-center location of this place.
The outlet is large and it gets very busy - I’d definitely recommend making a reservation if you’re looking to go for dinner here.
The service was okay given how busy it was when we dined. I enjoyed the pizza and would totally come here again for another one. My friend had a vegan pasta dish, which was also a decent portion and tasted nice.
All in all a good place to dine in the centre of town and at very fair prices - the pizza, pasta, a small water, a glass of wine, and a beer came to less than 40 EUR.

The pizza has a red tomato base and yellow-ish vegan cheese. You can also see some mushrooms on it. You can't see the plate the pizza is served on, because the pizza is bigger than the plate.
Yikes! Probably the biggest pizza I’ve ever received in a restaurant.

Average cheese, rubbish packaging

A block of yellowish vegan cheese in a plastic wrapper. The brand, Applewood, is written on top and the slogan "A Brit different" is below.
Applewood Vegan Smoky Cheese Alternative

Picked this up a couple of days ago mostly because I hadn’t tried it before. Taste-wise it’s average, not really smokey and creamy like advertised, but okay. Apparently, this was voted “Best Cheese in Canada” in 2021. I feel that, on this occasion, the Canadians are wrong. I’ll try and be polite about it…
I will, however, not buy it again simply because of the inane plastic packaging, which requires professional safe breaker tools to pry open. Why is it that companies so often put their products in difficult to open packaging made out of plastic? My mum, who has arthritis could never open this.
