Falstaff Barguide Nordics 2026 - Cocktail bars

The bar within the bar. Tucked away in "Svanen", this eye-catching offshoot offers a complete change of scene. Under the name "Den Grimme Ælling" (The Ugly Duckling), the vintage elegance of Svanen gives way to a sleek sci-fi aesthetic with a metallic interior that almost looks like a spaceship. True to its sustainable philosophy, "Den Grimme Ælling" transforms "ugly" ingredients into beautiful, flavorful creations. A study in contrasts, creativity and meticulous detail - a bar that is best experienced in person.
