Corner Club

I think I’ve finally found another good burger place in Stockholm!
The Corner Club is affiliated with Restaurant Frantzén and offers an awesome Umami Burger which lives up to its name. Umami is the word for savory taste, and this burger was definitely savory.
The meat is perfectly cooked (medium to medium rare) and resulted in an incredibly juicy burger that easily rivaled most of the burgers I’ve had. They add in some mushrooms, onions and cheddar, and the end result was a party in my mouth. The truffle in the dressing was fantastic — if you’re a truffle fan, of course. The way the cheese melted over the burger made everything stick together so you get a bit of everything in every bite that you take. Perfection between two brioche buns.
Why did they only get four stars? Well, for the price (205kr) I’d have expected fries to come with it but they were a separate order. The fries were also good — came with parmesan on top — but I’d say they weren’t just double-​fried, but actually a tad on the burned side. The burger was definitely the star of the show.
Dare I say it — this could be better than Flippin’ Burgers! The Corner Club offers a much cozier atmosphere, and you can get a decent Old Fashioned. You won’t be disappointed, it lives up to the Frantzén name.

Situated in the old town of Stockholm, serving (basically only) superior, often hard alcohol based drinks, Corner club has made quite an impact on Stockholm’s bar scene. Exquisite old fashioneds, sidecar’s and other whiskey or cognac based drinks. Order only a glass of wine or a simple lager and your bartender will serve you with a distinct bitterness although they will not frown with disapproval of your «simple» choice…

Updated review!
Service is still good yet not as attentive as before. Getting too relaxed?
Cocktails are the best in town, get one of the classics or try one of their own. If you’re hungry get the pricey but tasty things on the menu.
The crowd is more mixed nowadays. For example — one group ordered jim beam and coke at my last visit and had a «Huddinge hockey club» aura.

This bar is ok! I think the lovely company we had and the fact that I was already a few drinks in made this place pretty good. The front of the bar is a little more livelier than in the back. I didn’t like how the back was so closed off from the rest of the space. It felt like we were missing all the energy of the front – which was much more hip and active. It was like we were sitting in the back closet of a hipster bar. I guess if your in a mellow kind of mood it’s alright, but the décor and space just felt like too much of an afterthought in comparison to the front. We were reserved a seat ahead of time, so I would suggest requesting seats in the front if you do the same.
I really had a problem with the waitress. I think this place would’ve gotten a much MUCH better rating if we had someone else. At the time we all laughed off her rude bossiness, but it was a bit distasteful. She actually «shushed» my significant other when he tried to ask a question. ummm… not ok.
The truffle popcorn (which isn’t on the menu upstairs) is delightful. If your just out to stop by somewhere in Gamla Stan and grab an informal drink in a hipster style place, this is your spot. I would just recommend sticking to the front of the bar ;)

Really knowledgeable staff who either love their mixology or are well trained. Either way, that shows very clearly. Waitress was pretty rude but could drop knowledge hard. In the end, it kind of worked for her. I didn’t love the atmosphere of the place itself when I was there but thinking back it was interesting in it’s own way. It lacks a cozy feel but there’s something 17^th century sitting room about it (maybe its Gamla Stan location and old wooden chairs).
It’s a place you like to have in your back pocket for a «cool» recommendation when you’re in the area, but maybe not a place I would return to myself that enthusiastically (due to the prices).

Seriously, I’m givinn these guys a 5. I started with a Northern Navy and I stock with it to the end! I did tried other drinks (lovely friends :)) and I ordered the same! They are really good with tastes, more than just good. I would recommand their Gin-​based drinks, so delic.
The lady taking orders gave us a great help and put lots of time explaining and recommanding. I gave tips happily.
The environment is normal, comfortable enough to seat and talk.
Lovely spot, I will go back again and I will plan to try their food as well.
It is a good dangerous place for your wallet which you will love ;)

A bit overpriced, but the food is good, the drinks strong, and the staff friendly. Definitely worth checking out if you’re thirsty while in Gamla Stan.
It’s a great place for a small group to meet for drinks, but seating is limited so it’s worth getting there early.

I rarely give five star reviews. Very quaint corner bar, small intimate sitting areas. Extremely friendly staff and bartenders. This is a great spot to stop in for excellent drinks and conversation.
The Corner Club has a limited food menu. I ate the Pistol Pete Burger. Excellent burger, hot crispy fries.
I come to Stockholm on business quite often, and I will be coming back to the Corner Club!

Friendly bartenders and delicious beers from a brewery in England. If you’re looking for a cocktail, tell them what you feel like and they’ll make something up for you on the spot.

Part of Bjorn Frantzen’s burgeoning empire, a low key place where you can get good cocktails before or after a meal, work or whatnot. I sat at the bar before I had to move on to dinner reservations later on the night. Being a Friday it wasnt too packed and gave me time to talk to the Swedish and Canadian bartenders. Id been drinking a lot the last several weeks so I had to tone it down just a hair. My main bartender who’d spent time in Copenhagen, and Mallorca also, knew a lot of the same bars I knew in those parts of the world. He made me a play on a Swedish soda from his childhood laced with some Amaro Montenegro. Refreshing, not too heavy and hitting the spot. Great conversation and ambiance. Definitely will have to spend more time next time Im in town here.
