Gotland - A unique and delicious food destination

Gotland really has become a culinary force to be reckoned with, and Visby is said to have more restaurants per capita than almost anywhere else in Sweden. And that is no coincidence. Crops and produce of every kind are grown here on the island, with the lime-rich soil and favourable climate ensuring good quality and bags of flavour and sweetness. Each season has its specialities and the restaurants across Gotland are skilled at making the most of local produce, taking pride in their innovative menus, with a broad repertoire based on the best that the season has to offer.

Time for fika!

Take a break with coffee or tea and something sweet. A delicacy you must try when you are on Gotland is our famous saffron pancake with dewberry jam and whipped cream.
