Description: Sjätte Tunnan attempts to recreate the atmosphere of a banquet from the middle ages; everything from food, drink and entertainment to the clothes worn in that period. As far as possible, the chefs follow historical recipes and ingredients. Sjätte Tunnan serves its own mead, a wide range of beers and buys wine from the same ports used in the 1400s.

We took two teenagers and an eleven year old to Scandinavia over Easter holidays 2012. Aifur was the culinary highlight for the children as it captured their imagination as well as the tastebuds. Berries and lots of honey, a whole dwarf chicken for growing teenagers could not be better for kids and being announced before you sat down is a... More

We were recommended this pub by the waiter at Aifur Restaurant, who pointed us in the direction of a good viking themed pub. The atmosphere was fun, the barman was enthuisiastic, and a man dressed as a viking provided entertainment. The downside; mead was recommeded, but was not authentic, and some of the music choice was poor. Overall though a... More

You get to drink mead here... and wild boar! Need I say more?! The only problem is every expensive... but youre in Gamla Stan, so its dyr wherever you go. But so very worth it for the experience! Must check it out if youre a lord of the rings fan or game of thrones guy like me!

I can't give a review about food/atmosphere as we didn't get that far... We made a reservation online (a CONFIRMED one) and went to the restaurant just to find the doors closed. We called them and found out they had a private function. Thank you very much for that.

We booked a table here for a Saturday night hoping for a night with good food, good service and some good drinking. Having visited a similar type of resturant in Tallin we had high expectations. This was a huge disappointment. We had to wait for a while at the bar before a waitress came along. The bar looked just plain,... More

The best way to feel like a real viking, long wooden tables, candle light, live acustic music evocating ancient times, meals are great!!! I really recommend boar or deer dishes!!

Having visited the equivalent restaurants in Riga and Tallinn I was quite looking forward to going here. However the place is much smaller and with much less atmosphere than its equivalents there. They didn't have the mead which we were most looking forward to trying and the service was lacking in the drama which the other ones have. The food... More

My experience at this restaurant is probably very different from most others'. I was in Stockholm on Business, and had a night to myself to go out to dinner. It was the weekend of the Mid-Summer Festival Holiday, so other than the touristy areas(like Gamla Stan[Old Town] Where this restaurant is located). There were only a few other people in... More

This restaurant is in the cellars below the street and very interesting. There is no electricity in the dining area and so you feel that you are transported back in time. The waiters are dressed in costume and look the part. They bring you giant 3 to 6 liter jugs of mead that is poured in traditional mugs. On the... More

I visited Stockholm in late June, and happened to spot an ad for a medieval restaurant in one of the city guides, so we headed out and managed to find Sjatte Tunnan on Stora Nygatan. What a find! Down a long, rather dark flight of stairs, you find yourself in what looks like a series of caves, lit only by... More
