    Vete-Katten

    Start with a pastry and coffee at the historic Vete-Katten. The interiors date back to 1928, offering a quiet moment before the afternoon crowds arrive.

    Kungsträdgården

    Walk to Kungsträdgården. As a park with frequent stage performances, it is the perfect spot to sit and people-watch. If it is winter, you might see ice skating on the pond.

    Grillska huset

    Head to Grillska huset for a late lunch. Housed in a medieval building owned by the wealthy Grill family from 1681 to 1800, it offers a more relaxed and less overpriced atmosphere than many other venues in the old town.
