A close-up of the beer taps at Katarina Ölcafé. Katarina Ölcafé is one of many places in Stockholm that specializes in artisan craft beer from local breweries.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Swedish government has restricted the sale of alcohol in bars and restaurants. From 24 December to 7 Febuary, no alcohol is to be served after 8 pm (20:00). This might lead to some restaurants and bars closing earlier than usual, or not opening at all.

The wooden panels, communal tables and decorated mirrors at restaurant Bierhaus.

Walk through the doors and enter a classic German beer hall, with wooden panels, communal tables, and brick walls. At the bar, you can order your favorite of the 18 German beers on tap, or ask advice from the friendly and able staff. The kitchen serves traditional German dishes like homemade sausages, sauerkraut, and pickles, all at very affordable prices.

The courtyard at restaurant Häktet. Several tables are set up on the little square between the old prison buildings.

This old prison is a place to escape to, rather than from. Whether you&#x27;re looking for a nice meal or to party like a prisoner, with three bars and an interesting Stockholm crowd, this is the place for a night out. Häktet is also one of few bars on Södermalm that closes at 3 am.

Food and beer at Omaka, a brewery, restaurant and bar on Östermalm in Stockholm.

In early September, Östermalm got a new hotspot for foodies and beer lovers. Omaka is a brewery, restaurant, bar, and beer garden created by Sweden&#x27;s youngest brewmaster Hedda Spendrup.The restaurant has an open kitchen concept, where head chef Christian Siberg has composed a menu with modern dishes to pair with every beer brewed in the building. The spacious bar has large windows overlooking the brewery.Omaka&#x27;s slogan for their beer is &#x27;Taste before style&#x27; – but with the new place, we&#x27;d say they&#x27;ve got both.
