Gärdeby krog

Gärdeby krog is located where it is – in the middle of that Swedish landscape that sometimes feels like a postcard from a kinder time. The building itself has a kind of honorable warmth about it, with wooden floors that creak in the right places and windows that know how to let in both light and longing. The outdoor seating rests peacefully against the surrounding fields, hills and golf courses, and it is easy to linger a little too long over a cup of coffee.nnBut then there was that thing with the food. It is not bad, absolutely not – but it is missing that little extra sting. Some spice is too little, some saltiness that was hiding. You eat it up, you get full, but it is not a dish you talk about in the car home. And that is a bit of a shame, because the environment deserves food that matches its charm.nnHowever, when midsummer comes – then the place really blooms. Gärdeby krog and its surroundings are transformed into a small-scale paradise. Children dance, adults smile and someone plays a violin a little crookedly but with their heart in the right place. It's not polished or polished, but it's real. Country charm at its most forgiving and beautiful.

Nice and cozy place, too bad there weren't more small tables instead of long tables, and good food, so I hope it continues.

Wonderful that you can get real home cooking and also eat your fill. Nice staff!

Great lunch...also has a pensioner's price

Meatloaf sooo dry, powdered sauce and potatoes. Absolutely not worth 120:-!!nThere were tea bags, but no water.
