Review of Il Caffè Drottninggatan – by David F.

In my opinion Stockholm's best coffee! Also good bread, good buns and pastries from St Paul's bakery at Mariatorget. They also make perfectly ok barbecue sandwiches if you want something a little more filling.
However, they lose out on the room which is very boring I think. Concrete walls and no direct interior. Further into the room, it almost feels like sitting in a bunker. There are a lot of people studying there, so it's probably a good study environment in guess. I'd rather sit closer to the entrance and the till, there's a little better atmosphere I think.
It is incredibly nice to sit on their outdoor terrace in the summer. It is very small but is located on Drottninggatan's finest and quiet part, near Tegnérlunden, so I like to sit and enjoy a good cappuccino in a nice environment.
The coffee gets 5 stars from me, so good coffee and cappuccino are always perfect - something many ambitious Stockholm cafes often fail to do. So despite the boring décor, they get a total of a 4. No cozy café where you sit for hours with a friend and talk, but Il Caffé Drottninggatan fulfils another function. It is perfect for a quick coffee or if you want to study!
