Great café at Djurgården. Take the boat from Slussen, skip the fair Gröna Lund, if you can, maybe visit the Abba Museum to the left from ferry. But do take a nice stroll in the vast park and head for Rosendals Garden Café. The do have concerts summertime. Djurgården one might think is undeveloped due to the fact that the whole area Djurgården is owned by the King of Sweden.

The BEST vietnamese street-food take-away spot in the negighbourhood (avoid Nem Nem). Go for the soups- the stock is made from swedish beef or eco chicken. So hearty and great quality for less money.
Situated in the shopping mall of Skrapen a few blocks away, through the park of Rosenlund. Grab an italian icecream as dessert, open summer and sunny days, by yellow lounge chairs in park right behind/before Skrapan right by park.
