Thanksgiving is the holiday we associate most closely with the USA. Always celebrated Stateside on the fourth Thursday in November, Thanksgiving is when Americans gather their nearest and dearest for a long festive meal. Via American books, films and TV series, the tradition has spread to other countries around the world - including Sweden. Several restaurants have hopped on the trend and Thanksgiving is now celebrated at various spots in Stockholm. Our guide will help you find the best places to celebrate Thanksgiving in Stockholm.

Authentic American
At this Södermalm spot, Thanksgiving is celebrated over two days, featuring a set menu filled with traditional American dishes such as turkey, gravy, stuffing, Brussels sprouts, and mashed potatoes. For dessert, the restaurant's homemade apple pie awaits. For vegetarians and vegans, bean patties are offered as an alternative to turkey. The festive meal must be booked in advance via email, and if you're a larger group, you can sit privately in the slightly quirky basement. It's also fine to pick up takeaway if you prefer to celebrate at home.
