Freyja, Rooftop restaurant and bar in Södermalm district, Stockholm, Sweden.
Freyja is a rooftop restaurant and bar in Södermalm with both covered indoor seating and an expansive open terrace. The location offers views across the Riddarfjärden bay, surrounding neighborhoods, and the island of Djurgården.
Södermalm became known as an artistic quarter starting in the 19th century, when creative figures established studios and lived there. That history of independent creative work continues to shape the neighborhood's appeal and attracts restaurants and cultural ventures today.
The venue takes its name from the Norse goddess of love and beauty, reflecting how Stockholm's creative scene draws on regional identity and storytelling. The setting shows how contemporary dining spaces in this city honor Scandinavian heritage while remaining focused on the present moment.
The rooftop sits at height with access via stairs and elevators, so consider your comfort level with climbing or moving between levels before heading up. It fills quickly during evenings and weekends, so arriving early or checking availability ahead helps you get a good spot.
A small sausage kiosk operates at ground level, selling casual snacks while the main level serves fine dining above. Graffiti artwork decorates the terrace, creating an unusual mix of refined food and street art energy that catches many visitors off guard.

Stockholm's rooftop bars and terraces give you a different way to see the city. From high above the streets, you can watch the sun move across the water, spot the islands scattered around the city, and take in the old neighborhoods below. These places serve cocktails and drinks alongside food, letting you enjoy good drinks while the view does the talking. Whether you're looking for a spot to spend an evening or just want to see Stockholm from above, these rooftop venues offer something you won't find at ground level. You'll find everything from casual summer terraces in Södermalm to sleek bars inside modern hotels downtown. Many stay open through the warmer months, when the long daylight and outdoor space make rooftop dining and drinking feel like part of the season itself.
