The Best Streetfood Spots for Ramen in Stockholm

After the founders perfected their recipes on trips to Kyoto and Hong Kong, slow-simmered broths (tonkotsu, shoyu, and miso bases) are made here from scratch, but with Swedish ingredients. They form the base for flavorful ramen, topped with meat, egg, and more. The name means bamboo in Japanese.

House façades, paper lanterns, and glowing shoji windows: the interior recreates a nighttime alley in Tokyo. The ramen is based on pork, chicken, or vegetable broths, with toppings like entrecôte, clams, and tofu. Unlike the original at Hötorgshallen, this 2024 branch also offers sides and desserts.

At Stockholm’s first kitchen dedicated to Lanzhou beef noodles, open since 2024, the wheat noodles are hand-pulled to order in widths from 1 millimeter to 1.5 centimeters. The signature bowl comes with sliced beef, coriander, spring onion, and white radish in a light broth.

Barobao in Södermalm keeps things simple, with bao buns at the centre of attention. Filled with everything from crispy meats to vegetables and bold sauces, the menu also features a range of other Asian-inspired dishes alongside the fluffy street-food staples.

Named for the capybara, the largest living rodent, and known as an easygoing creature, this ramen bar aims to be just as sociable and popular among its guests. With seven noodle soups and a brothless mazemen, plus various snacks and mains on the menu, there is enough variety to reward return visits.

Among the nine locations of this Stockholm chain, which premiered in 2022, the Södermalm address stands out for having the most seating and the coziest dining room. The menu centres on Asian street food with a twist: bowls, ramen, and rolls, refined with ingredients like truffle and roasted corn.
