Our accommodations and restaurants on Skaftö are now planning for the summer. Here we give you a foretaste of this summer on Skaftö.

Wednesdays is moule-frites day with troubadour starting at 18:00.
At midsummer the lunch on Midsummer's Day is THE big event here.
Andreas Sundberg Kleen, restaurant manager, sommelier and himself a Skaftöislander, says that Brygghuset will continue to focus on fish and seafood and that they will work closely with the local fisherman Björn, who also has his boat lying outside Brygghuset. Since it will also make use of the recipes from the cookbook "Äta vid havet: mat, människor och råvaror", that is written by restaurateur Reine Patriksson himself with Jonas Svensson and Anna Henning Moberg and was published last year.
If you enjoy whiskey, do not miss Joel's Whisky Bar! Brygghuset has more than 1 450 bottles of whiskey from different distilleries and vintages. The focus is on single malts from Scotland.
