What a fantastic find just a short walk from the Haymarket. We stopped in for a quick pre-dinner cocktail and ended up having such a memorable visit. We grabbed a seat at the bar, where the owner, John, took fantastic care of us. The cocktails were exceptional—perfectly balanced, inventive, and exactly what we needed. Between the delicious drinks, the warm, grounded ambiance, and the comforting vibe, the whole experience was a delight. Huge thanks to John for the wonderful hospitality!

We tried 4 cocktails, they were all top notch. Not often in Stockholm you are at a cocktail bar with a concept and strive for creativity. Will be back!

Great atmosphere and an easy place to come for one or many cocktails. Every signature cocktail oozed attention to detail and was an absolute joy to have. Visiting Stockholm for the first time, they also took the time to give great recommendations for restaurants and made the trip something special.

Found this place on my way to a candy shop and definitely worth the stop! Had the Ranarbara & sunbeam cocktail but had to go for seconds on the Rabarbara... Staff were super friendly and attentive. Would definitely stop by again!
