Church of Sweden Reviews
Starting a new Xmas tradition: went to the Church of Sweden (thank you, Ruby R.

A Swedish friend took me here for a quick coffee break. Downstairs there is a tiny cage where they have coffee and tea and a bunch of Swedish treats (you do have to pay, I don't want to imply that it is gratis!) We enjoyed some parties and drinks and the quiet location to sit and chat.I'm not sure that it's really open to the non-Swedish public, but I felt very welcome.A quiet little reprieve from the city!
