Svea Cafe & Restaurang Description
Perched between the Everyman and Playhouse Theatres, Svea Cafe and Restaurang has achieved its mission of bringing homemade Swedish food to Cheltenham. The minimalist menu eschews the concept of starters and mains so the notion of a one-dish meal is to the fore. To assist the notion there is frölunda, meatballs and cream sauce with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam, and luleå, whole trout filled with mushrooms and white wine sauce.
Smörgåsbord, the famous Swedish buffet is available on the first Saturday of every month featuring herring, gravad lax, meatballs, sausages from Falun, and egg halves with caviar, new potatoes, beetroot salad and more. The princess cake is a house speciality filled with whipped cream and jam, surrounded by a light green marzipan exterior and dusted with confectioner's sugar.
Ever wondered why Swedes sing so much at meal events? Try Svea schnapps to accompany your meal and you will soon know.
Your Reviews of Svea Cafe & Restaurang
Ursula (27 July 2009)
If there was ever a restaurant which proved that Swedish food is not just about herrings, this is it. From simple Scandinavian open sandwiches to beautifully cooked meat, fish and vegetarian meals, not to mention wonderful cakes and desserts, everything there is home-cooked and truly delicious. If you feel like trying a bit of everything, go to the smorgasbord evening on the first Saturday of each month and sample a real Swedish buffet. You'll go back for more!

We went there for an evening meal and it was great. You really don't need a ten-page menu if all the dishes are of that quality; you can eat anything of it and won't be disappointed. We had some herring starter and trout main and gravadlax starter and meatballs main. If you can muster try their desserts – truly fantastic. Highly recommended! Go there if you are after something different to the usual Italian or Indian.
