NK Saluhall

The NK Saluhall is like a tiny and somewhat upscale ICA in the city center. I personally think that the ICA in Liljeholmen is much better than this, but this location does have some advantages for the people who are lucky enough to live in the area. They can shop here instead of entering the high traffic train station stores, which is nice I’m sure. I did think that since this was considered an NK store it would have more unique and interesting/​imported items than my local ICA, but it really wasn’t that much nicer. It was actually smaller and less appealing that I would have imagined. I like that they had beer tasting, but do I really want to do that at the grocery store? I think I would rather do that out with friends. This store did have a few nicer stands from specialty meat and food boutiques around the city like Friends of Adam, Sthlm Cupcakes and a Swedish meat company (that I don’t remember the name of – but it looked nice). Swedish grocery stores have improved tremendously in freshness and variety since I have been here in Stockholm. This may have been nicer back in the day, but I think the Liljeholmen store has taken the torch. I would really like to see this place be more like the NK upstairs: fancy, unique, upscale and worth the trip. Right now, I don’t think I would have a reason to come over my own neighborhood ICA.

if i lived in stockholm, i’d go here daily until everyone of the vendors knew my name. everything looked delicious, fresh, and super gourmet. i wanted to try everything but my wallet wouldn’t allow it, nor would my short time in town. if/​when i get back to stockholm, i’ll definitely spend more time here.

Looove this place!!! I just wish it was more affordable! This splendid high-​end gourmet indoor market is worth walking through just for the experience of it. You will salivate over top quality food displays, ranging from meats, seafood, cheeses, pastries, etc… I can’t afford to shop or dine here too often but if you want to try really good smörgås (Scandinavian open sandwich), check out «Tysta Mari», seafood deli inside. If you fancy «fika» (coffee break), check out Robert’s Coffee near the entrance… you can get a coffee and a yummy vaniljhärta for take away and take a stroll in Humlegården, a beautiful park only a few blocks away (even though a nice weather is very unlikely to happen… lol).
