Right on the water and great for a glass of wine on the deck in the summer or for a cup of coffee around the fireplace during the cooler months. Food selection is limited and on the pricey side so I seldom go here for a meal.

Rent a kayak and experience Stockholm from the water. It's a wonderful experience - if the weather is right ;-). Rålis Kajak is just down at the waterfront and has kayaks and SUP's for rent at very reasonable prices.
