    Side Track is a gay bar in Stockholm with a loyal following. Tucked away in Södermalm, Stockholm's oldest gay bar has been a go-to for years thanks to its intimate feel, chatty regulars, and a soundtrack of pop and throwback hits. The drinks come quick, along with a bar menu that’s better than you'd expect for the price.

    It’s a little out of the centre, but worth the ride.

      This gorgeous open-air waterside bar & lounge, set in a pavilion with fantastic city views, is only open in the summer, so you can visit and enjoy an ice cold drink under the sun!

      Mälarpaviljongen is proud supporter of the local gay community; a proud sponsor of a charity campaign called the "Rainbow Fund". It doesn't hurt that their creative menu includes truly delish dishes and drinks.
