Gathering around food in Örebro

In the squares and along the streets, sunny outdoor dining areas invite you to enjoy lunches that turn into dinners. Örebro has something to suit every taste.

The squares are the heart of the restaurant scene

Two squares and an alley—the heart of Örebro’s food scene. Here you’ll find plenty of restaurants. At Stortorget, you’ll find everything from Italian to Asian cuisine and traditional Swedish fare.

The colorful Basta, where you can enjoy Italian cuisine. And the lively Plankton, which serves seafood. At all these locations, many of the restaurants move their dining areas outdoors during spring and summer.

Cafés and bakeries in Örebro

It’s almost always a good time for a coffee break. Coffee and a bun, or matcha and a princess cake cookie? In Örebro, you have plenty of cafés and bakeries to choose from, offering both classic and modern flavors.

Classic cafés and bakeries

Would you like to have lunch or a coffee break at a bakery with a long history and classic status? In Örebro, there are three options. In 1965, the same year Örebro celebrated its 700th anniversary, Smörgåsbutiken opened in Medborgarhuset in the southern part of the city. Since then, this family-run business has been delighting Örebro residents with its sandwich cakes. With crushed cheese curls on the edges, Smörgåsbutiken was one of the first in Sweden to specialize specifically in smörgåstårta.

If you’re in the mood for something sweet, you should visit Vasa or Hälls instead. These are two bakeries with long histories. Vasa Konditori has been located on Vasagatan since the 1960s, initially under the name Konsumbageriet. Since then, the bakery has become a favorite spot for coffee breaks and has expanded to three locations in Örebro as well as in Kumla. The classic Killevipp has been on the menu since the beginning and remains part of the wide selection of pastries, bread, and light lunches.

Hälls Konditori is the oldest of Örebro’s classic bakeries. Since 1910, the bakery has been open to the public in Örebro, and it’s still located in the same spot in the Centralpalatset building at Norrcity. With its irresistible view of Örebro Castle, visitors have been able to enjoy both bread and coffee and pastries for more than a century. Three classics worth visiting. Choose one or try all three in one go.

Sausage production and sales

The Sibylla Sausage is a classic that has been satisfying appetites for nearly a century. It is also a sausage that originated in Kumla, just over 20 minutes from downtown Örebro. In 1907, Oskar Lithell began making sausages in a basement in Kumla. Twenty-five years later, his son Daniel launched the Sibylla Sausage. In 1956, Lithells moved its production 15 minutes east to Sköllersta. Sweden’s largest sausage factory still stands there today—and also features a factory store where you can shop for brands like Sibylla, Lönneberga, and Ridderheims.

Lithells is the largest sausage manufacturer in Örebro County, but not the only one. Robertsons Charkuteri was founded in 1929 and today produces exclusive sausages and delicacies—always using Swedish meat. Robertsons has two locations in Örebro: the store on Aspholmen, where they sell their sausages and a wide selection of cuts of meat; and the store on Hamnplan, in central Örebro, where you can buy the same charcuterie as on Aspholmen, as well as cheese, fish, and seafood.

Twenty kilometers east of Askersund lies Närkesberg, where sausage production is also underway. Vilda Korven, a local company, both hunts and makes its own sausages. Beer sausages, grilled sausages, and wurst—all made from wild boar.

Lilla Väsby Farm is a fourth sausage producer in the county. The farm is located between Kumla and Fjugesta and produces several different types of sausages using meat from animals that have grazed on the farm. The sausages are sold in a farm shop on the premises, along with other products such as fresh meat, smoked meat, and hamburgers.

Want to do more than just buy hot dogs—want to eat them, too? Then Banger Bar is the place to be. The menu here features hot dogs in all shapes and sizes: bratwurst, chorizo, and classic—all with a variety of toppings. How about a Caesar, a Mexican Fiesta, or a Tommy Special?
