Sjätte Tunnan

Gamla Stan


Situated in a medieval cellar in the heart of the old town, Sjätte Tunnan offers a glimpse into a forgotten world. Venture deep into the bowels of old Stockholm to discover hearty fare based on original recipes, such as wild hog meatballs or tender, baked deer steak, washed down with mead brewed in-house. Waiting staff, fully clad in medieval garb, complete the setting.

The restaurant has an adjacent bar above ground for those only wanting to experience a quick taste of what’s on offer.
