Våffelcafé Solddattorpet
Sit down in the shadow of 17th century fortification Skansen Kronan and enjoy a waffle while looking out over the roof tops of Gothenburg. The location of Våffelcafé Soldattorpet is hard to beat. Take a deep breath and climb up the stairs of Risåsberget, you won’t regret it. Open on weekends, and the official Swedish waffle day, March 25.
Café with waffles
Enjoy freshly made waffles, a relaxing atmosphere and splendid views right in the city centre. Relax in the lush garden where there are plenty of seats, hammocks and blankets, or inside the cottage, and take in the historic settings while you eat.
Dyrön’s waffle cafe
You can reach the island Dyrön north of Gothenburg by ferry from Rönnängs Brygga on Tjörn or from Rökan just before Marstrand. Here at the small, cosy unmanned waffle cafe, you make your own waffles and pay with Swish. Combine the waffles with a hike on the nice trails on the island and don’t miss looking out for the wild mouflon sheep scurrying around. Read more at vastsverige.com.
