Summer Cafe Gammelgarden
Welcome to Summer Cafe Gammelgarden, a cozy retreat located at Asgatan 15-17, 776 32 Hedemora, Sweden. This charming cafe is not just a place to grab a bite; it's an experience that captures the essence of Swedish summer. Set against a picturesque backdrop by the lake, it invites you to unwind, soak in the sun, and celebrate the simple joys of life.
The atmosphere here is inviting and warm, with rustic decor that reflects the charm of old Sweden. It’s a perfect spot for gathering with friends or family, especially during festive occasions like Midsummer and National Day, which are celebrated with great enthusiasm. Imagine enjoying your coffee while surrounded by blooming flowers, vibrant greenery, and the gentle sound of water lapping against the shore.
Summer Cafe Gammelgarden is renowned for its delightful menu offerings that include crispy waffles that melt in your mouth and are perfect for an afternoon treat. Take it from satisfied customers like Frida K, who raves about these supergoda våfflor (super tasty waffles), although she mentions that a little extra jam and cream would elevate the experience even further. But that’s part of the charm—each customer’s feedback is a gentle nudge towards perfection!
For those with a sweet tooth, the sockerkaka (sponge cake) priced at just 15 SEK is a must-try, although one reviewer noted that it could be a tad moister. Regardless, the affordable pricing adds to the experience, especially with the bonus of free refills on coffee, which is only 20 SEK. Consider this your ideal stop for both a delicious dessert and a comforting cup of coffee after exploring the beautiful surroundings.
Looking out onto the serene lake view adds a unique touch to your cafe experience. As Kent Sköld observes, it’s a very pleasant place with a lovely view, making it not just about the food, but the overall delight of being in such a stunning locale. Although parking may be limited, the journey to this hidden gem is certainly worth it.
And if you’re seeking more than just a meal, Theres Torslund captures the essence perfectly when she mentions the cafe as a lovely spot that gives you a glimpse into the old Swedish way of life. It often hosts interesting activities and performances by troubadours, making your visit a lively affair full of entertainment alongside your food.
So whether you're stopping by for a quick coffee and a sweet treat, or planning to linger longer to soak in the atmosphere, Summer Cafe Gammelgarden promises to deliver genuine warmth, delectable delights, and unforgettable summer memories. Come experience a slice of Swedish bliss right by the lake!
