A nice place to stop by for a fika if you're in the area, and they have much more. They are also kind enough to offer old newspapers for wet cyclists to sit on.

Very nice staff, great waffles, and a really good assortment of jams, etc. Not far from the main road and worth the few extra minutes’ drive.

Lovely place, friendly owners, very clean, good yummy food and children friendly. Surprised to find they serve both Thai and Swedish fare and are equally good. Also serve cakes and cookies. They have a section selling their own homemade preserves, jams and honey. Good stuff - we bought a lot. An unexpected surprising find on our roadtrip. Very glad we decided to try it out. Hope to stop by again in the future.

Great and fast service. They have a very large authentic Thai menu and also Swedish options (Husmanskost). Cafe and drink are included. There’s sitting area where dogs are welcome and they also have tons of products to buy. I loved the rhubarb concentrate for juice. These are the same producers that sell at r the ecological market reko. Also the waffles are incredibly crunchy.

Lovely place for lunch (or brunch, dinner, or just a cup of coffee) a little off the E4. Nice seating, both inside and outside, and friendly staff. There's also a little shop inside where you can buy homemade honey, jams, and more. Glad we found this, would recommend!
