The downtown shopping district around Drottninggatan, Birger Jarlsgatan, Biblioteksgatan, and Hamngatan has department stores and malls, clothing boutiques, and a wide variety of other shops. For souvenirs and crafts, peruse the boutiques and galleries in Västerlånggatan, the main street of Gamla Stan. On Södermalm, hit the shops that line the raised sidewalk at the start of Hornsgatan for jewelry, crafts, and fine art, or head to Götgatan and SoFo (the area south of Folkungagatan) for trendy and creative shops selling new and vintage clothing, design, and more. Shopping hours are generally 10 to 6 on weekdays, 10 to 5 on Saturday, and 11 or noon to 4 or 5 on Sunday. Department stores and many chain retailers stay open later, while smaller independent boutiques may have different hours and are often closed on Sunday.

If you're interested in high-quality Swedish food, try the classic European indoor market Östermalms Saluhall, where you can buy superb fish, game, bread, and vegetables—or just have a glass of wine at one of the bars and watch the world go by. The historic 1880s building has undergone extensive renovation to preserve and restore its original character while also ensuring its future as one of Stockholm’s most popular destinations for specialty foods.
