Cozy - Edit
A cute little place with a couple of savoury and sweet options including icecream. Limited indoor seating, so make sure to visit on a sunny day.

A cottage full of Swedish summer - Edit
This is a place to go to if you want to if you want to have classic vegan pastry or ice cream and at the same tim get to know artists, photographers, musicians and activists from Stockholm. The place is run by a super friendly journalist with a great network of such people. Ask and you will be pointed in the right direction. Torpet i Orhem is located in an area with several allotments and it's close to a beautiful lake.

Varying vegan options - Edit
The menu changes quite often. I've had vegan soups, sandwiches, cinnamon buns, pies, waffles, ice cream and it's all been tasty. Sometimes they run out of some vegan options, and then they don't make more of it the same day, so a flexible attitude is a good thing to bring. But the surroundings are quite worth it!

Idyllic cottage with several vegan options - Edit
Really cosy, typical Swedish cottage with several vegan options. The cottage lies in an area with allotments with beautiful woods and a lake nearby. It's a bit out of the way but makes for a nice excursion on a sunny day. I had a sandwich and my company had chocolate cake with whipped cream, both vegan. There is usually a small exhibition of art prints on the walls and sometimes cultural events and talks are held there. Outdoor seating. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
