Buns, bread and a metro-hallway counter

Bagar'n Hornstull is a standalone bakery counter set into a metro hallway on Långholmsgatan, in Hornstull. There is no seating and no shopfront to spot from across the street, so you find it by knowing it is there: a booth, pastries laid out, staff on hand.

The vegan case is the thing to come for. At least six pastries and cakes are vegan-friendly, and not all of them carry a label, so ask which ones qualify rather than guessing from the signs. The chocolate banana donut is one of them, and it has the texture of something that gives way as soon as you bite. Cronuts, chocolate croissants and a princess cake sit in the same range.

Beyond that, the buns are what the shop is built on. Kanelbullar and kardemummabullar both earn their place, the cardamom version tasting different from the usual Stockholm article, and the semlor hold their own alongside them. Bread is the quieter strength: rye is called out by name, and the loaves are generous in size. A pesto bread turns up in the mix too.

The pricing sits well against what you get, and the portions are not shy. Come earlier in the day rather than late: by around 6:30 pm the buns are bagged up and no more are sold, so an evening visit can mean looking at what is left rather than choosing. Saturday closes at 5 pm and Sunday the shop is shut.

It is a bakery counter for a quick stop and a bag to take away, not a place to sit, and it suits anyone hunting vegan pastry in a city that makes it hard to find.

What to look for

Vegan pastries

At least six vegan-friendly pastries and cakes, and several are not labelled, so ask the staff which ones qualify.

Cinnamon buns (kanelbullar)

The reason to come back for many: soft, sweet and the benchmark order here.

Cardamom buns (kardemummabullar)

Cardamom buns that taste different from the usual Stockholm version, named alongside the cinnamon ones.

The pick list

What to bring home

  1. Vegan pastries

    At least six vegan-friendly pastries and cakes are on offer, and some are not labelled, so ask the staff which ones qualify.

  2. Cinnamon buns (kanelbullar)

    The cinnamon buns are the reason to come back.

  3. Cardamom buns (kardemummabullar)

    Cardamom buns sit alongside the cinnamon ones as a highlight, and they are different from the usual.

  4. Bread loaves

    The bread is the reason to come back, with the rye bread called out by name.

  5. Semlor

    The semlor are very good, listed among the buns that make the shop worth a visit.

Who is this for

This suits anyone chasing vegan pastry in Stockholm, since the range here is broad enough to fill a bag and staff will talk you through which items qualify. It also works for a quick stop off the metro in Hornstull, when you want buns or a loaf of rye bread to carry away rather than a table to sit at.

The verdict

It is a counter rather than a full bakery visit, with no seating and buns that can be bagged up by early evening, but for vegan pastry and a loaf of rye in Hornstull it does the job.
