Enjoy our cozy outdoor seating area in Södermalm

Östgötakällaren’s outdoor seating is more than just a place to eat - it’s an experience that engages all the senses. The classic café chairs with black woven seats and sturdy stone tables create a timeless feel, while handwritten chalkboards listing seasonal specialties testify to the kitchen’s commitment to quality. The generous awning protects against Stockholm’s unpredictable weather, while infrared heat lamps make it possible to enjoy the outdoor seating even when the evening chill descends on Söder.

The location is unbeatable - just a stone’s throw from Medborgarplatsen, right in the heart of Södermalm. Here, locals and visitors meet in a relaxed atmosphere where you can feel the pulse of the city while sitting comfortably with a glass in your hand. This is the perfect outdoor seating area near Medborgarplatsen for those seeking an authentic Stockholm experience, whether it’s a sunny Friday afternoon or a balmy summer evening.

When it comes to food at the outdoor restaurant, Östgötakällaren never compromises. The kitchen works with the best seasonal ingredients to compose dishes that both satisfy and surprise. Crisp salads with local vegetables, juicy grilled dishes, and well-thought-out vegetarian options win hearts just as much as the classic home-style dishes with a modern twist.

Each dish is served with the care it deserves, and a leisurely dinner on the outdoor terrace is something truly special when all the evening’s dishes are allowed to shine under the terracotta-red façade. The week’s specialties vary with the season - perhaps hand-picked shrimp on a June day or a hearty game stew as autumn approaches. The fresh ingredients are evident in every bite, and the presentation is as appealing to the eye as it is to the palate. On Fridays and weekends, lunch is also served on the outdoor terrace for those who want to enjoy a sunny meal in the middle of the day.

A restaurant with outdoor seating in Stockholm must be able to offer refreshing drinks that complement both the food and the weather. Östgötakällaren delivers with a well-stocked bar where craft beers, carefully selected wines, and creative cocktails meet non-alcoholic alternatives that don’t feel like an afterthought. A chilled rosé on a sunny afternoon, a refreshing gin and tonic when the temperature climbs, or perhaps a full-bodied red when the heat lamps make the evening cozy - the selection suits both the weather and your mood.

The bartender is happy to mix something special based on your preferences, and the wine list reflects both classic choices and exciting discoveries. For those who prefer non-alcoholic drinks, there are house lemonades and freshly squeezed juices that really make a difference when thirst strikes. After work, the outdoor seating area becomes a natural gathering place where colleagues and friends can unwind with something delicious in their glass.
