In the year of our Lord 1694, widow Anna Lindberg ran an illegal tavern in one of our five small buildings on the corner of Österlånggatan. One of His Majesty’s farmhands took over proceedings at the end of the 17th century, and shortly afterwards in 1715, “Tre Kungar” (“Three Kings”) appears as the name of our tavern. Perhaps the poet laureate Carl Michael Bellman renamed it when reciting a ballad in the vault? The name then changed to “Tre Prinsar” (“Three Princes”) and the venue began offering tastings in French. The Bernadottes were the Kingdom’s masters and arbiters of taste. And this is what we’ve been doing ever since, with nine historic rooms in five small buildings. St George and the Dragon show the way: the fifth alleyway from the Royal Palace.

The entrance door to the restaurant from Nygränd is Romanesque and comes from Serge Bouilloux in Paris. The rafters are part of the building and have been kept as they were at the end of the 18th century. The lion (in the Lejonrum or “Lion Room”) and the cannons come from England, purchased by Peverdensy at Old Mint House. The inner vault boasts a stern shield from the time of Louis XV and was purchased from Charles Marschal in Paris. The lower bar’s interior is from the old Kung Gustaf train ferry and was purchased in Ystad. Bon appétit!

A creative meeting place for conferences and kick-off events. Get inspired and enjoy the peace and quiet. The restaurant serves first-class home cooking, while the surrounding area offers pleasant walks down the alleyways of Gamla Stan when it comes time to stretch your legs.
