Skanshof
Skanshof is a restaurant in Gothenburg located in a historic building by the waterfront. The establishment serves Scandinavian cuisine in a setting that reflects the maritime character of the location.
The building dates to the 19th century and was originally part of the Skans fortification. Over time it was converted into a dining establishment while maintaining its connection to the port's past.
The restaurant sits directly on the harbor promenade and is easily walkable from downtown. Outdoor seating overlooks the water, though availability varies with the season.
The restaurant takes its name from the historic Skans fortress, whose ruins remain visible nearby. This architectural heritage makes the location more than just a place to dine.
