Clarion Hotel® Draken goes large when it comes to cinematic expression! For decades, Draken was a centre for festivals. Now it lives on in a new guise as a house of experiences. Right in the heart of the 34-storey building the culturally significant Draken cinema, which has been serving locals and visitors to the city since 1956, has been revived as a popular attraction! On the ground floor you can experience a unique dining concept at Heurlins, combining the best of both worlds. Guests can look forward to sweet and savoury flavours including a variety of seafood dishes as well as local beers and great live music. Up on floor 33, you can enjoy stunning views of the Gothenburg skyline at Brasserie Draken as you relish delicious drinks and a range of fantastic food! One floor up, you can experience our wonderful rooftop bar and terrace where you can try a range of world-class cocktails!

Set beneath an ornate 19th-century glass ceiling fringed by a burgundy canopy, this elegant, airy restaurant comes with modern, light wood panelled walls and bespoke matching furnishings. The refined, well-balanced tasting menus showcase the best of the season, with the spring and summer menus formed largely around plant-led dishes. Classical combinations are subtly modernised by clever twists and well-judged sauces, such as the piquant langoustine bisque with Brussels sprouts and marigold or the slightly tart, fruity venison jus flavoured with blackcurrant to accompany the fallow deer and bee

A brick house on the edge of town plays host to this discreet restaurant, where you are welcomed through a black curtain into a sleek, minimalist space where six chairs sit at an oak counter. The meal starts at 6pm sharp, with the chef preparing his daily omakase menu directly on the countertop. He builds a great connection with guests as he explains how he chooses the best quality fish according to the seasons and the weather. His sushi is prepared with exemplary attention to detail, from kelp-infused jelly with chives and trout roe to leek with miso, hazelnut butter and sherry sauce. A mindf

There aren’t many restaurants that can claim to have made it past their 40th birthday, but then 28+ isn’t just any restaurant. Passionately run since 1985, it sits in a historic building in one of the city’s most elegant neighbourhoods. Descend the stairs and you’ll find yourself in a romantically candlelit cellar, where you settle in to spend the evening over a tasting menu of timeless classics. Prime Swedish and Scandinavian ingredients are showcased in carefully executed, boldly flavoured dishes, which are accompanied by an exceptional cheese selection and an outstanding wine list.

This cosy restaurant is personally run by a husband and wife team, whose balanced, seasonal tasting menu sees seafood and local game lead the way. The cooking is refined, original and intensely flavoured, while the eloquent team proudly explain the components of each dish with a smile. There are a number of Japanese influences on the menu too, like in the turbot with yuzu kosho and shiitake. The delicious bread takes five days to make.

There’s a chic, relaxed vibe to this elegant restaurant where you can watch the chefs at work in the open kitchen. They deliver your dishes too, which are attractively presented and a model of self-restraint, utilising well-thought-through combinations. Quality Swedish and Danish produce helps to achieve good depth of flavour, with a beautiful balance of richness and acidity running through the cooking.

This lively, friendly eatery is divided into three parts: a bar with bench seating and an open kitchen; a bright red room with a characterful cellar and a glass wine cave; and a superb wrap-around terrace. The good value cooking is rich and hearty, with a touch of originality here and there. A relaxed atmosphere and an appealing wine, beer and cocktail list add to the experience.

Chef-Owner Tobias has created a fun little neighbourhood spot here at Poppy, where groups of friends sit shoulder to shoulder at wooden tables in a trendy bistro-style room. It’s a compact place, with room for just 24 diners – including four seats overlooking the kitchen – but that’s all part of its cosy appeal. The five-course tasting menu offers seasonal modern dishes like monkfish 'binchotan' with tomato gel, hazelnut butter emulsion and mussel broth – or there's a three-course option midweek. Unusually, there’s no wine list, just shelves filled with bottles, their prices marked on them in

Enter through the huge wooden doors of this old military stable and you’ll find yourself in a large and stunningly converted room with a truly buzzing atmosphere. A huge horse’s head – a copy of Leonardo's Cavallo di Forcione and a reminder of the building’s former life – takes centre stage in the bar, which is a popular spot for a cocktail and some nibbles. When it comes to the food, it’s all about Italy, with the fresh, flavoursome dishes prepared on-view in the open kitchen. From homemade pizzas and pastas to traditional meat dishes, there’s something for everyone here.
