A tourist trap

Hermitage is located right in Gamla stan, where I presume locals only ever go to show their visitors around. At the time of my visit, the price on their web site was obviously outdated. Even though I notified them of that fact, they still insisted on trying to charge me slightly more than announced. To which I in response decided to go for merely a petit bowl of lentil soup rather than what I initially intended. At the time, it seemed like a better deal. Except really, it wasn't. I left still hungry, and highly unsatisfied.

good affordable soup!

been here for the veggie buffet a couple times, but it’s the vegan soup buffet which is where it’s at! been multiple times and at 60sek it’s super affordable for all the soup i could want! my favourite i’ve had was the borscht. alongside the soup you also get bread, croutons, and wasabi peas if you want to to with them! very very worth it!

Pros: affordable

Good food

The food was good but not amazing. It was open as a buffwt but not with many options. It was a great stop off mid self-guided walking tour, but not the best place.

Pros: Cosy cafe

Cons: Open buffet food

Good mostly-vegan buffet

I went here for dinner with three non-vegan friends. We all enjoyed our meals a lot. The buffet was mostly vegan. The person behind the counter seemed to be the owner, and was really nice. The buffet is not very large, but all of the vegan options were really good the night I was there. The restaurant itself is also not very large -- but it was comfortable.

Pros: good mostly-vegan buffet, friendly owner, Comfortable environment

Take away

We have done take away from the buffet. Although it good it's also not amazing. Maybe it's better to eat at the place since it's a buffet.

Vegetarian all you can eat 😍

With 215kr at lunchtime (195 before 2pm) quite expensive if you have little hunger!!! Otherwise great choice, very delicious. 🤤

Good buffet in the center

Lovely restaurant with a changing buffet! Everyone will find something here to their liking! Its great to have such a vegan/vegetarian place in the center of Stockholm. Usually one has to research for ages to find something for a vegan in the tourist center of a city. Not here !!

Don’t do it

I wouldn’t class this place as a ‘buffet’. There was minimal food and only 1 hot item was vegan. The only other ok dish was a pasta salad. I wanted to rate this place 1 and it would only get that because it at least doesn’t have any meat.

If I went somewhere I didn’t like, I usually wouldn’t even rate it but I feel like a PSA is needed because there is a fully vegan buffet that is way better! Go to Herman’s! Check out my review with photos, the variety is insane.

Cons: Barely any variety and almost nothing for vegans

Perfekt

Für ca. Umgerechnet 18 € kann man alles essen was zur Verfügung steht und so oft gehen wie man möchte. Wasser ist kostenlos und es wird auch nicht auf die Uhrzeit geachtet. Man kann also gelassen essen und entspannen. Die Auswahl ist ebenfalls für einen kleinen Laden ausreichend und vielfältig.

Pros: Entspannung, Auswahl, Preis

Cons: Keine Beschriftung/ Personal Fragen sind sehr nett

Preis ist OK aber Auswahl nicht so groß

Es ist mehr eine große Salatbar mit ein paar warmen Sachen als wirklich ein Buffet. Hat aber trotzdem gut geschmeckt. Der Preis ist ganz ok

Pros: Viele frische sachen, Lecker

Cons: Wenig warme sachen, Man kann nicht erkennen was es ist

loved the buffet

if you want to eat from the buffet, you have to options: either all-you-can-eat for 199kr≈17,90€ or one plate for 155kr≈13,95€. i went for the second option and was very happy (the portion can still be very large, depending on your piling skills;))
apart from 2 items, everything was vegan and the staff knew about it very well. we liked everything we tried.

there is a small step on the front door and the toilet is definitely not wheelchair accessible. they told me dogs are allowed sometimes - depending on behaviour, size and who's behind the desk

Pros: mostly vegan, lots of veggies, free tap water, 🐶🟡 dogs sometimes allowed inside

Cons: (🚽)⛔️♿ , 🐶🟡 dogs only sometimes allowed inside

Cozy corner in the busy old town

Old Towns are known for their tourist bait, but this gem is a real deal and must-visit for vegans. They have tasty and affordable lunch and fika. I enjoyed a delicious blueberry pie (49kr) and a coffee and oat milk (15kr). Cozy, and well worth a stop! #Veganuary

Very small restaurant in Gamla Stan of Stockholm

Small restaurant/cafe offering both food, in a small buffet, as well as coffe and cake.

I visited for the coffee and cake, which was good. Small place, just a few seats.

Pros: Good cake!

Good all vegan buffet

Exquisit variety of vegan food - rice, chickpeas, falafel-style balls, couscous, fresh salad - perfect.

For a lunch buffet it was 195 kr - in our opinion it was quiet expensive.

Free water tho!

Pros: All vegan, Variety, Free water

Das Restaurant ist sehr gemütlich, schön in der Altstadt gelegen, die Mitarbeitenden freundlich und das Essen super! Es gab ein Buffet mit Salaten und verschiedenen warmen Speisen. Es war alles vegan ausser die vegetarische Lasagne. Wir würden sofort wiederkommen.

Pros: 100% vegetarisches Restaurant, das meiste vegan, In der Altstadt gelegen, Würziges und leckes Essen

Fantastic food, in a great location

The Hermitage caters for both vegans and vegetarians and staff were really helpful in advising on all the dishes. It’s a buffet style restaurant so help yourself to what you want. The location is cool, based in the old town, and there is outside seating. Food was delicious.

Pros: Fabulous food, Friendly staff, Great location

Super good, fair prices

Very yummy nearly vegan buffet (only 1 dish was vegetarian), quite a few different dishes very good salad! Sadly pretty poor "marketing" tho- dishes are held warm in the "hidden" drawers which are easy to oversee& no board with daily "menu"

Cozy and probably best food choice in Gamla Stan

Great place for Vegan food! It’s comfy food with a people’s kitchen vibe, buffet style. Incredible lentil soup I am still thinking of! When I was there there was only the lasagna which wasn’t vegan. Probably the cheapest option for food in Gamla Stan / Central Stockholm.
They have a great option for take away, where one can fill up lunch boxes in different sizes!

Buffet and BBQ!

A little pricey but was worth it. Full buffet and a barbecue on the patio, food was delicious! Coffee Tea included. Harbor view, everyone who worked there was incredibly nice.
