Spirit of Hven Backafallsbyn

Great distillery placed in a pretty location overlooking fields but the buffet lunch disappoints. Friendly staff. But as most places on this tiny island it’s overpriced, lunch for 3 is double the price of any basic London restaurant.nNo local produce or any thought have gone into the food. Simple buffet with a poor selection of dishes. At our visit they served a salmon dish and a creamy beef pasta as mains. The side salads were fridge cold, out of a pack and unimaginative. If you like school dinners you will like this lunch buffet. Coffee isn’t included.

We ate lunch at the restaurant and the food was delicious. On the pricy side compared with other restaurants on the island, but both the food quality and the service makes up for that. Restaurant accommodated a change from fried cod to grilled cod, which we very much appreciated.

One of the newest distilleries in Sweden is Spirit of Hven, located on a small island between Sweden and Denmark. You get here with a ferry from either Landskrona or Helsingborg in Sweden or from Copenhagen. The distillery is a 10 minute bus ride from the ferry or a 30 minute walk. The tour of the distillery is nice and informative, and if you are lucky you get Henrik the founder to run the tour. In addition to the tour you also get to tasye some of the products at the end. They also have good tastings covering most of their products which is worth doing. Bear in mind that yoy need to book and it is hard to get tours in English. Overall a good tour though.

There are places without a Soul, this is such a place. A lot of colorful feathers that not fulfill promises. Of the personal, there was one person that smiled and talked. After working +10 years within the restaurant business I feel safe to say: Change restaurant management. Get new one, prefereble some that know have to treat people and to choose wine to food.

I enjoyed a very pleasant stay here. Staff was friendly and service was excellent. During the lunch, I received a vegan option separately because in lunch buffet was regular food choices and that was amazing.
