Bread, buns and a seat by the window

S:t Paul Bageri Götgatan is a bakery cafe on Götgatan in SoFo, and the first thing you notice inside is the size of the place: a big room with large windows looking out onto the street and seats facing them.

The buns are what you come for. The kardemumma bull is soft and well spiced, and the cinnamon bun comes in a vegan version alongside the ordinary one. There is a tosca pastry to take with a drink, a carrot cake for a sit-down break, and a grilled sourdough sandwich with pesto and cheese that suits a cold day. Vegan sweets extend to the semla, and a vegan chai can be made.

It works as a cafe as much as a bakery: you order at the counter, coffee is made behind it, and there is Wi-Fi if you want to write. Weekends bring a laptop ban in the seating area, so plan a weekend visit around eating rather than working.

Prices run high for Stockholm. A coffee and a bun together pass a hundred kronor, and a simple espresso has gone from 26 to 32 kr. Come earlier in the day if pastries matter, since the selection thins out late on a Saturday.

The counter can back up, so a visit is best when you are not in a hurry. It suits a slow breakfast, a quiet break with cake, and anyone who wants vegan baking with their coffee.

What to look for

Kardemumma bull

Soft and well spiced, the cardamom bun is the bake to order alongside a coffee.

Cinnamon bun

A highlight of the counter, with a vegan version available next to the regular one.

Tosca pastry

A sweet to take with a drink, named more than once as a standout.

The pick list

What to bring home

  1. Cinnamon bun

    The cinnamon bun is the one to get first, and there is a vegan version too.

  2. Kardemumma bull

    The cardamom bun is a soft, well-spiced bake that holds up alongside a coffee.

  3. Tosca pastry

    Order the tosca with a cappuccino and sit in the quiet seating, though pastries can run low late in the day.

  4. Carrot cake

    The carrot cake is the pick for a sit-down break in the cafe.

  5. Grilled sourdough sandwich

    The grilled sourdough sandwich with pesto and cheese is a satisfying winter order, especially with a hot coffee.

Who is this for

This suits a traveler who wants a proper sit-down breakfast in SoFo, with bread from the shop's own bakery and seats facing Götgatan. It is also a good stop for anyone keeping to vegan sweets, since the semla, cinnamon bun and chai can all be had that way. Come if you would rather linger over a cardamom bun and a coffee than grab something on the move.

If you need a cheap odds-and-ends shop rather than a bakery sit-down, Götgatsbacken on the same street keeps a junk corner of bargain goods to dig through.

The verdict

The buns and the room are worth the trip, but prices are high and the counter can be slow, so it fits a unhurried sit-down rather than a cheap quick stop.
