Stenugnsbageriet — stone oven bakery — names its method in its name: the bread is baked in a wood-fired stone oven, which produces the particular crust and crumb density that distinguishes this bakery from the ambient Scandinavian café culture. The interior is organised around a large arched window that faces the street, with an industrial pendant light arrangement above marble tables and a geometric tile floor. The bread display is the primary visual information in the room. Coffee is served with appropriate seriousness; the kanelbullar and cardamom buns are made with the same attention as the sourdough. A good place to spend an early weekday morning before the city day begins.
