Good coffee. Sit outside in their back yard or near the parking lot. They also have a nice (bigger) café just across the parking lot in the rear, next to the store Artilleriet. In the bigger café there is a small and cosy outdoor yard to enjoy your coffee or lunch!
Outside, in the same parking lot, there are some food trucks. My favorite is Jinx Food truck. Try their delicious pork buns!

One of our favorite day trips just outside the city. This is a beautiful place to go for a day at the beach (or at the rocks). Highly recommended. Bring your own pic-nic!
The island Stora Amundön offers wonderful spots for swimming and a diversified landscape, ranging from coastal meadows to oak forests. Here you will find cliffs and small rocky beaches. On the way out to the rocks you can walk through a horse paddock.
