The Flying Elk is a gastropub serving proper pub grub in the Old Town - homemade pub food made from quality ingredients. The pub feels like a home from home, where guests can relax and enjoy good food and drink. The name comes from a 19th century Swedish legend about a flying elk.

Top-quality pub grub dishes take centre stage on The Flying Elk's menu, with quality ingredients and flavours inspired by Swedish nature. Fish and chips, crispy pork belly and pork schnitzel are just a few of the main courses you can choose from. If you'd rather just munch a few snacks there's a rillette toast made from slow-cooked Swedish farm pork and a popular fried chicken dish with Korean glaze. The dining room is decorated in elegant Scandinavian style which also flirts with Nordic nature, with walls clad in copper, leather chairs and green details. Sit for a while and take in the warm, welcoming atmosphere. Upstairs is their cocktail bar, Corner Club.

A little further inside the restaurant you'll find another bar called Älghjärtart - The Moose's Heart - a lively, sociable place for a post-work drink with a group of friends or colleagues. They also hold various types of activities and events such as live music, board games and quizzes. The drinks list includes a selection of carefully chosen Swedish beers and if you get peckish you can order in some snacks from the bar menu. From Tuesdays to Fridays there's post-work happy hour with pulsing music and special offers.

God mat, god dryck, härlig stämning och bra läge!

Riktigt skönt ställe med bra mat och trevlig personal. Helt klart Gamla Stans bästa barhäng. Anordnar roliga events/tävlingar.

Denna recension baseras på en middag i kristiden - det vill säga att de var underbemannade både inne i köket och ute på golvet. Jag tycker att det var en jättehärlig kväll med mycket positivitet trots den sorgliga och speciella rådande situation som p...

We chose the tasting menu at The Flying Elk 😊. Very good food, loved the scallop and Råbiffen 😍. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Väldigt intressant o mysigt bra vinlista som jag gillar servicen var på topp

God mat och trevlig upplevelse i stort. Efterrätterna var riktigt härliga. En liten soppa till förrätt ingick, väldigt god men framförallt lite trevligt! Fish and chipsen var bra.

Had dinner here last night and have previously eaten weekend lunch sometime (when I ate truffle Burger which was awesome). The menu is quite special, a little tricky would probably most say that is a little too secure in his comfort zone, exciting the curious would say. I'm leaning toward the f...

Wonderful moose, the food comforts, the wine tastes and the drinks are full pot. The service is, however, beyond and beyond this, Stockholm's best staff is definitely working here!

Great atmosphere, nice decor, good food and upfitting service. The only thing that pulls down the grade is that it is too expensive.

Had high expectations here. And sure, it was good! I took the "48h" Cheek to the main course which was really good. Got two small pieces, a little krims hug around and a tiny bowl with a puree made of parsnips I have for me. I had to eat at least 4 PCs to be satisfied.
My company was n...

Nice place right on the old town underground station.
We ate Hamburgers and Fish and chips. Tasted very good. Tryfflemajon to French Fritsen was the evening's big shot.
Cozy place that is highly recommended. Nice staff.
A strong 4 get it by me

At the Flying Elk it is Barkrubb and Bira at its best but the difference in service is what makes it sway sometimes.

I like the Flying Elk, that's my basic view of the whole place and that's why I return at regular intervals.

Being hung and eating here is probably the ver...

Here I have eaten both their brunch and dinner several times. Sjukt nice and warm place with the right feeling in everything from personnel to the menu. I'm not overly keen on everything on the menu but I have eaten has been better than expected. Everything is well-prepared and rustic. Maybe a...

Nice place, not quite as pubig-feeling that one might expect from a gastropub-but nice. The food was really good, rustic cuisine elegantly served so it doesn't seemed too heavy and powerful.

Modern gastropub which serves pub food with a twist. Last few times have tested me on their fish n chips and butter baked piggvarsfilén, both of which were really tasty. I have not yet tested on their music quiz, but is something one day I plan to try me on!

Bra kvalitet. Trevligt.

Så bra! Grym service och fantastisk mat!
