Svartsö Krog – restaurant in the Stockholm archipelago

Svartsö Krog is a restaurant at Alsvik, on the southern part of Svartsö in the middle Stockholm archipelago, just east of Alsviks brygga. Svartsö lies between Möja and Ljusterö, just south of Ingmarsö and Edö. The restaurant says three things decide its menu: the season, the best ingredients and the best producers, so the menu changes constantly with availability and the chef's inspiration. Guests choose between four-course menus and an à la carte menu, and Visit Stockholm highlights a wine list of interesting choices from smaller European estates. The restaurant also runs Svartsö Logi, which Visit Stockholm counts among the Stockholm archipelago's five glamping sites: furnished canvas tents by the beach below the restaurant, open from May to September, each with its own small terrace and a sea view. Visiting boats can moor at the restaurant's own jetty directly below the restaurant; places cannot be booked, but there is usually room. Alsvik guest harbour is about 200 metres away, and places there can be booked through Svartsö Lanthandel. Waxholmsbolaget calls at Alsviks brygga, about 200 metres' walk along the gravel road. Many archipelago restaurants have reduced hours or close in autumn and winter, so check opening hours before you go. From Strandvägen, the fairway route is an estimated 22 nautical miles. Cruise time is 1h 30min at 15 knots in a motorboat, and 2h 45min at 8 knots in a yacht. Those are estimated cruise times at those speeds, not a scheduled departure.
