The street Magasinsgatan is located in the city centre – stretching from Lilla Torget towards Vasastan and crossing streets like Kyrkogatan, Kungsgatan och Vallgatan on its way.
Fashion and interior design
In Magasinskvarteren, local or Swedish brands rule. Fashion brands such as Acne Studios and archipelago charmers Emma and Malena have their own stores here. You’ll also find the clothing and lifestyle store Grandpa and the interior design stores Artilleriet and Artilleriet Kitchen Studios. A hidden gem is the small pot and flower shop Floramor och Krukatös located in the small courtyard inside Da Matteo’s coffee roastery.
In the neighborhoods around Magasinsgatan you’ll also find a variety of vintage and second-hand shops. Some examples are Ragtime, for women and men, Pop Boutique and the multi-brand store Aplace, which has a well-sorted second-hand section.
Coffee and street food
At Da Matteo, which has two cafes on Magasinsgatan, is a given place for those who want to pause shopping for a coffee. When the sun shines, the open area with chairs and tables is usually packed with sun worshipers and coffee lovers. There are also a bunch of food trucks here, some more permanent than others, such as Jinx, which specializes in baos. Nearby you’ll also find Beer N Fries where you can count on a large selection of beer, good fries and really good smash burgers.
Bars and restaurants
As the sun sets, the nightlife and restaurant scene comes to life and the short stretch between crossing streets Drottninggatan and Kyrkogatan is particularly busy, offering various cuisines. From small pinxtos at Basque to mexican at Puta Madre. In summer, this a great block for al fresco dinner and drinks. Near the square Magasinstorget, in the buildings that were once used as stables, you will now find the italian restaurant Tavolo, which boasts some pretty spectacular interior design including a giant horse head.
Walk around the corner to Kyrkogatan where you find for example a cosy courtyard with the bar Champagnebaren , cocktail bar Bruno and jazz place Unity Jazz. Should the evening continue, Sing Sing’s karaoke bar can be found just around the corner.
The Magasinsgatan neigbourhood is centrally located which means you can stay nearby in any of the hotels and hostels across the city centre. You walk here from the central station in 15 minutes and the Market hall (Saluhallen) and Kungstorget are also close. The closest bus and tram stop is called Domkyrkan.
