A handy pocket-sized guide to the best food, drink and sights to see in Stockholm
From the saffron-coloured buildings and cobblestone-covered streets, to the sleek modern bars and trendy restaurants, Stockholm is a city of history, style and impeccable design. In a compact, light paperback format perfect for slipping into your back pocket, Stockholm Pocket Precincts is your curated guide to the city’s most interesting cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences.
Divided into separate precincts, each section lists the best shops, restaurants, bars and sights to see in the area. The precincts the guide covers are Gamla Stan & Riddarholmen, Norrmalm & Skeppsholmen, Djurgården, Södermalm, Hornstull & Långholmen, Östermalm, Vasastan, Ladugårdsgärdet, and Kungsholmen. Go beyond the city’s glittering surface to underground cafes and basement dance clubs, tiny vintage boutiques tucked inside historic buildings, epic fashion and the perfect cafés for fika (the daily coffee break).
Also included is a selection of 'field trips' to encourage you to explore outside the city, including nearby islands like Björkö (home to the viking city of Birka), as well as the popular university city of Uppsala.

Becky Ohlsen first visited Stockholm as a toddler, on a trip to meet her maternal grandparents. Later, as a teen, she mastered enough of the language and geography to make an important daily pilgrimage to the local snack kiosk for chocolate. Becky will still go out of her way for Swedish chocolate, but several stretches of living in Stockholm apartments over the years have expanded her tastes and interests. Becky has researched and written about Stockholm for Lonely Planet since 2004; she wrote about family travel in Sweden for The Independent, and landscape as a character in Swedish literature for The Bear Deluxe.
