Visiting Järnvägsrestaurangen Östra Station is like stepping back in time. The moment you walk in, you’re transported to a bygone era - part classic beer hall, part old-school restaurant - exactly the kind of place you imagine thriving in the 60s. There’s something wonderfully authentic about it; nothing feels staged or “retro,” it’s simply the real deal that has stood the test of time. The food is everything you want from proper Swedish husmanskost: honest, hearty, and cooked with tradition at heart. Dishes are generous and comforting, prepared just as they should be - no unnecessary fuss, just flavors that remind you why these classics have never gone out of style. And if you go, don’t miss the Råraka - crispy, golden perfection. Quite possibly the best in Sweden. The venue itself adds to the charm. With its high ceilings, solid wooden details, and timeless railway atmosphere, you can almost hear the echoes of decades of conversations, laughter, and clinking glasses. It’s both grand and cozy at the same time, and the perfect setting whether you’re stopping in for a beer or sitting down to a full meal. A rare gem in Stockholm - a place where history, food, and atmosphere come together seamlessly.
