A small ICA with a kitchen inside

ICA Nära Roslagstull is a branch of the ICA chain on Birger Jarlsgatan in Vasastan, and what sets it apart from a plain corner shop is the kitchen. Bistron and Delin turn out food on site, and chefs working in the store show in how the dishes taste.

Order the Bistron lunch and you get a freshly cooked plate for 109 kr, low for the inner city. The ready-made meals from Bistron and Delin are the other thing to carry home: chef-made takeaway dishes that beat a frozen pizza for an easy dinner. The own-brand line is worth a look too, holding its own alongside the wider range.

There is a restaurant and coffee section with seating inside and out, so you can eat the lunch where it is made rather than carrying it away. A scanner lets you scan as you shop.

Prices run high for a supermarket.

The format suits a quick, good lunch or a dinner you do not have to cook, and the late close makes it useful when the day runs long. Come for the kitchen rather than for a full weekly shop.

The pick list

What to bring home

  1. Bistron lunch

    A freshly prepared, well-cooked lunch served on site at a low price for the inner city.

  2. Bistron and Delin ready-made meals

    Chef-made takeaway dishes from Bistron and Delin, a step up from a frozen pizza when an easy dinner is what you need. The lunch runs 109kr for something really fresh and well prepared.

  3. Own-brand products

    The store's private-label line gets singled out as very good alongside the wider range.

Who is this for

This suits a traveler staying in Vasastan who wants a real cooked lunch at 109 kr instead of a sandwich, with seats inside and out to eat it. It also works for anyone whose day has run long and needs a chef-made ready-made meal to carry home before the 11 pm close.

If you want a bakery bun and a coffee rather than a cooked lunch or groceries, Valhallabageriet on Odengatan sells the kannebulle that gives that small Vasastan shop its reason to exist. Valhallabageriet - Odengatan.

The verdict

The kitchen and the 109 kr lunch are worth the trip, but high prices mean this is a stop for a meal rather than a full weekly shop.
