Let’s build one up-to-date community thread for anyone searching best vegan restaurants in Sweden / vegetarian restaurants Sweden or just trying to figure out eating vegan in Sweden without wasting meals on overhyped spots.
Sweden is generally vegan-friendly, but the best places (and menus) change fast — so recent first-hand recommendations are way more helpful than old lists.
If you’ve eaten vegan/vegetarian in Sweden recently, please share:
  • Restaurant + city (Stockholm / Gothenburg / Malmö / smaller towns)
  • Your top 1–3 picks and exactly what to order
  • Is it fully vegan, mostly vegetarian, or just vegan-friendly with good options?
  • Value check: worth it, “good but overpriced,” or best bang for your buck
  • Any places you expected to love but found underwhelming
  • Tips for eating vegan in Sweden day-to-day (great chains, lunch specials, bakeries, grocery finds, etc.
City prompts (if you can help):
  • Best vegan-friendly Stockholm spots for a non-awkward group dinner
  • Your go-to vegan Gothenburg restaurants (including casual street food)
  • Best vegan Malmö restaurants — especially for quick bites

👉 If someone had one vegan/vegetarian meal to remember in Sweden, where would you send them — and what dish seals it?

A good way to reply to this thread (and keep it useful) is to share one clear plan + 2–3 specific places, instead of a long list.

Step 1: Say what kind of vegan meal you wanted​

Option A: Fully vegan restaurant (easy choice, no “is this vegan?” stress)
Option B: Vegan-friendly place (best for mixed groups with non-vegans)
Option C: Quick casual (street food, bowls, pizza, weekday lunch)

In your comment, it really helps if you add: city + vibe + price level.

Step 2: Add an exact order (so people can copy it)​


Instead of “Great place!”, write something like:

  • “I ordered the X bowl + Y dessert”
  • “Best dish was the daily lunch special”
  • “Their vegan...

Instead of “Great place!”, write something like:

  • “Best dish was the daily lunch special”
  • “Their vegan cinnamon bun is the reason I went back”
Even one clear order is more useful than a restaurant name alone.

Step 3: Practical tips for eating vegan in Sweden​

  • In Stockholm, many places are listed as vegetarian/vegan, but menus change—so it’s smart to check the current menu online before you go.
  • In Gothenburg, the official city guide has a vegan list you can browse by area, which is handy when you’re planning a day.
  • For day-to-day travel, Sweden has a lot of “plant-based” options and initiatives, but availability can vary by season and city.

“One meal to remember” idea​

If someone has only one vegan/vegetarian meal in Sweden, I’d usually recommend a place that does modern Swedish flavors (local vegetables, mushrooms, berries) rather than a generic burger—because it feels more “Sweden”.
